Ethics Analysis and Critical Thinking-
The ethical outcomes we want you to achieve is done by considering some thought provoking ethical dilemmas:
(- Listen, don't mention the war. I mentioned it once, but I think I got away with it all right. - - Basil Fawlty, Fawlty Towers , 1975).
Let's take the BIG PICTURE approach with some thought provoking current controveraries and determine the correct behavioural response. This can be done with activities that search and explore the meaning of justice and fairness: - What is the right thing to do? - Michael J Sandel, 2009 https://www.gov.harvard.edu/people/faculty/michael-sandel
The big picture approach with such controversies challenges your thinking by working through conflicts that force you to make sense of morality and your own convictions - onward and upward via philosophy, ethics, morality, justice.
1. In this task choose and consider ANY TWO of the cases as listed in the 8 current ICT controversies below.
2. In your Project Blog consider and write about the issues of justice and fairness involved and suggest -What is the right thing to do? in both cases.
3. Share your findings with others via the Ethical Analysis Discussion Board setup for this task in Interact2.
