Assignments Week 3 - Build a Moral Compass

Instructions:

Using the material on moral compasses from weeks 1 and 2, write a paper of no less than 500

words that accomplishes the following:

In a section titled "Theories" identify the 1-4 moral theories you will use to build your compass

(deontological, utilitarian, common good, virtue, etc.) along with a short documented definition

for each theory. ["documented" in the sense of citing and referencing your source.]

In a section titled "Explanation" explain for each theory how it would help you make what you

feel would be the right decision and in what situations (ex. Using deontology at work to

ensure the company’s policies are kept and its reputation is upheld; Using care ethics at

home as a way to be equitable with the kids, etc.).

Chose one topic from the Markkula Center for Applied Ethics (under “Ethics Spotlight” ) or

another pressing ethical situation you or others you know are facing at the moment and using

ether Framework for Ethical Decision Making (Markkula or Brown), walk through the steps to

make an ethical decision and justify what you decide is the moral action to take in this

situation. Be sure to be clear on which of the two frameworks you are using.
