GRADING RUBRIC & OUTLINE FOR WRITING TOPICS

Prof. Rosenberg WCU Phar 605 Pharmacy Law and Ethics GRADING RUBRIC & Outline for Writing Topics Page 1

I.

Introduction

In Section I, you are to introduce the topic and dilemma which exists or is encountered in medical and / or pharmacy ethics or pharmacy law, and explain how and why the dilemma exists.

Introduce the various positions which you have discovered after doing some research on the topic you have chosen only briefly to the reader (your audience) because these are the various perspectives ( 2 or more) which you will be discussing in Sections II and II below.

II.

Perspective of Supporter (Pros)

In Section II, discuss the “pros” or supporter’s perspective and/ or the common or prevailing view on the topic you have chosen.

In Section II, you should be educating the reader (your audience) as to this point of view.

III. Perspective of Challenger (Cons)

Discuss on the other hand, the “cons” or view of challengers to view above in Section II and/ or the perspective or arguments against the common or prevailing

view on the topic you have chosen. (If you are able to identify a third viewpoint, then by all means you can also discuss that too.)

In Section III, educate the reader (your audience) as to this alternate point of view.

IV.

Individual Opinion Offer your individual opinion formed on the basis of your research and analysis of the issue, and the various viewpoints that surface and are addressed in your paper. You should explain to the reader (your audience) why you adopt your position.

Note: The point of the assignment is not to identify one right or wrong perspective. The point is to be able to identify that an issue has more than one perspective, and to weigh the values that are being balanced on each side of the issue.

V. Conclusion

Succinctly summarize and offer the reader – whether or not the issue can be adequately resolved now or in the future. Are there social changes anticipated that

will impact the issue? You can also identify some points that are perhaps not resolved at this time, or may continue to remain unresolved in the future.
