A Professional Code of Conduct

This paper will include a set of five to ten principles that, combined together, provide a code of conduct for YOU in the role YOU plan to fulfill in your professional life.  You may focus on a code of conduct as the professional you will be or you may address a code of conduct you will share with your staff or co-workers in your professional role, i.e. owning a retail company, managing a veterinary clinic, etc.  You should begin by researching codes of conduct that exist for people in your position, either by personally inquiring or by doing online research.  You may use some of these in your code of conduct but you must add your own to put your stamp on it. The sources you find should be referenced appropriately. Please list this set of codes that you create for yourself in the introduction or just after the introduction so that they are easily identified.

Once you have established the codes of conduct, you must discuss what ethical theory (or theories) apply or reject each code. This should be the main focus of the paper. You must discuss at least 3 separate ethical theories. Each theory must have 2 sources.

Within the paper, you may also discuss the reasons for your code of conduct choices indicating the overall intent of your code in its entirety.

THE MAIN POINT OF THE PAPER IS TO APPLY ETHICAL THEORY. PLEASE USE RUBRIC AS YOU WRITE YOUR PAPER FOR POINT ALLOCATIONS. YOU MUST APPLY 3 ETHICAL THEORIES TO THE CODE OF CONDUCT YOU ESTABLISH. 

This means thoroughly defining each theory with at least 2 separate, credible sources and then step by step explaining how the issue applies or rejects an ethical theory.

**Topical source and or citations need to be philosophical about theory

Papers Format/Guidelines:

FOLLOW RUBRIC on Bb and your APA book!

· 1,000+ word minimum

· 12 point font                     

· Double spaced                     

· One inch margins                     

· Cover page (APA format)                       

· Running head and page # (APA format)

· Introduction and Conclusion (no abstract required)       

· At least 3 ethical theories applied (Pick from: Hedonism, Desire Satisfaction Theory, Divine Command Theory, Natural Law Theory, Ethical Egoism (NOT Psychological Egoism), Consequentialism or Utilitarianism, Kantian Ethics, Virtue Ethics, Social Contract Theory, Ethical Relativism (can include Cultural Relativism)   - if you veer from this list, you MUST check with Prof. Hammack - failure to do so may result in 0 for that critical thinking section.

· Headings for Intro, Conclusion, and each Ethical Theory (APA format)                       

· Reference page (APA format)

· Minimum 6 philosophical sources on Ethical Theory NOT the “topic” (DO NOT use Pp slides, videos or the Open Web). Only use the Shafer-Landau textbook and the CPP online library database with keyword search ex: "Ethical Egoism" or "Kantian Ethics" etc.

Ethical arguments included in any chapter can be used in your papers. I am not looking for your opinion; I am looking for an ethical viewpoint. You can include any relevant personal experiences, graphs, charts, and any other information that may help you describe your moral dilemma.  Be sure to include a minimum of 6 total philosophical sources using APA guidelines and include them in your references and citations to help you highlight your ethical theory application.  Writing is expected to include critical thinking about how ethical theory and information from your references relate to your chosen topic.

A really good way to appraoch each critical thinking section is to 1.) clearly explain/define the ethical theory you will be applying with 2 separate sources on ethical theory. These should be philosophical in nature (No Open Web and not on topic). Then bring in the topic you selected and analyze that ethical dilemma from the perspective of that ethical theory.  (see RUBRIC)

All papers must be grammatically correct and all spelling must be correct. Please use spelling/grammar check before you submit and carefully proof for errors NOT caught previously.

All papers must be submitted through Blackboard in “Paper Drop Box” tab by clicking on the turnitin link ON TIME. DO NOT EMAIL FINAL PAPERS to professor's email. Do NOT wait until the last minute to submit. Sometimes, students encounter issues in submission – no exceptions for late submissions, if you have difficulty submitting, it’s probably YOUR computer. Do not email the professor with technical submission problems. If you are having a problem, consider using a computer on campus.

Do's and Dont's:

· Do use citations that are philosophical in nature and support the definition of the ethical theory you are applying

· Do NOT use citations on topic of GMOs, etc.

· Do include two citations minimum per ethical theory section. Must have a total of 6 unique sources for the paper. You may re-use sources throughout the paper BUT you will only be given credit for them once. 

· Do use the Shafer-Landau textbook and the CPP online library (philosophical article search by keyword ex: ethical egoism, social contract theory, etc.) 

· Do NOT use the Open Web for citations

· Do cite only 1 source per sentence

· Do not cite 2 or more sources in one sentence. Split citations from different sources into their own sentence to make it clear what content in that sentence relates to the source.

· Do stick to discussing/applying 1 ethical theory in each section. Resist the urge to bounce back and forth and discuss a different ethical theory in another's critical thinking section.

· Do follow the RUBRIC

· Even though APA does not require, I appreciate including the page # after last name and year in the in-text citations.
