Ethical Scenarios

Regardless of your field of study, you will encounter ethical issues along the way that will require difficult choices. The best way to problem solve is to use your EDU499 Professional Standards by Program download table as a guide. In this discussion forum, each program has a scenario to read, reflect on, and problem-solve using the knowledge you have gained from your degree program in conjunction with your professional standards.

To prepare for this Discussion,

· Choose the attached ethical scenario that corresponds with your program.

· BAECEA download

In the EDU499 Professional Standards by Program download table, follow the link corresponding to your program’s professional standards.

In your initial post,

· List the title of your scenario.

· Copy and paste the specific professional standard that will help you solve this ethical dilemma.

· Respond to the following question:

· Why did you choose the standard you did?

· Describe the steps you would take to solve this problem.

· Create an ethical scenario of your own that pertains to your field of study for your peers to solve. Be sure that your scenario is detailed enough so that your peers from a different field of study can understand the situation and problem solve.

Climate and Learning Environment<

Each of the positions or jobs listed in Week 1 take place in a specific location within the Multigenerational Center. As a future employee of one of these spaces, you will be designing the environment in which you will work. Depending on your field of study and/or your job role, the questions you might ask yourself and the environmental factors you may consider could vary. For example:

· As a librarian what are the things that will be important to consider? Integration of technology, lighting, available resources, and so forth will all be important to the design of each environment. Learning environment design for both children and adults has been shown to have tremendous impact on learning.

· As an instructional designer, consider the different elements that should be considered when presenting material digitally or when creating an online classroom. How will your clients interact? What will their environment need to be like? Sometimes the environment in which instruction will take place will influence the design of the learning materials or activities. If you have selected to work with the senior center, there are even more considerations for an environment that is suitable for seniors. Young children also have unique needs.

· And so on for each program...
