In the scenario assignments, you are asked to reflect on responses to the presented
scenario. It should not just be writing down your first reaction or what you already know.
Reflection involves critical thinking, which means rethinking your existing knowledge
and previously held opinions in light of what we have learned about theories of ethics,
logic, and reasoning. You will need to question your current knowledge and beliefs.
Discuss the main points of the debate, what stance you take, support that stance, and
discuss the opposing argument. Also, discuss an ethical theory that would apply to
defend your view.
To complete each scenario assignment:
1. Complete the entire scenario.
2. Fill out the template attached below, ask your professor for details on submission.
3. Compose the last question on the template reflection in a Word document and be
sure to address, at a minimum, the following questions:
● Why do you feel the way you do about the issue presented?
● Of the four responses offered in the scenario, which do you think is the most
ethical and why?
● Which ethical theory would you use to support your stance? Why does this
theory work?
4. Support your conclusions with evidence and specific examples from the textbook,
including a minimum of one theory of ethics to defend your stance.
5. Your reflection must be 1-2 pages in length and follow APA formatting and citation
guidelines as appropriate, making sure to cite at least two sources.
6. Review the rubric for specific grading criteria
