case

The case study analysis written assignment (approximately 5-7 pages, double spaced, 12 pt font, Times New Roman Font, 1 inch margins) constitutes evidence of your understanding of the concepts presented in the readings and materials. It requires an organized, concise, coherent, and argumentatively sound response to questions posed at the end of an assigned case study.

To do the analysis:

1. Read and respond to the discussion questions posed in 3-40 Cynthia Claasen and Tom McNamara, “The Deep Horizon Oil Spill” 297.

2. Afterwards, use your answers to the discussion questions to:

1. DESCRIBE very briefly (in about 150 words) the main characters and the relevant factual elements in the case.
2. DISCERN the most significant ethical issues in the case.
3. DETERMINE the main options available to agent(s).
4. DECIDE which is the (most) ethical option and create a plan to implement the option.
5. DEFEND the decision and the moral principles that it appeals to.

Make sure that your analysis is divided into each of these five major portions as described in a case studies approach to ethics 

Your analysis will be evaluated using the relevant rubric and it is expected that your analysis demonstrates attention to detail, grammar, diction and proper use of language.
