Introduction

You began this session considering a moral-ethical dilemma you yourself faced that you either resolved or failed to resolve, but hopefully learned from. You may never have given much thought to ethical theory nor what ethical premises/paradigms you have unconsciously held.

Instructions

Now that you have had an opportunity to explore ethics formally, create a reflective assessment of your learning experience and the collaborations you engaged in throughout this session. You will submit both of the following:

A written reflection

An oral presentation using VoiceThread or a PowerPoint narrated slide show. If you choose to do a VoiceThread, be sure to submit the link to the VoiceThread and make it so the instructor is authorized to view it. If you need help in doing so, please call the Chamberlain help desk for aid.

For the written reflection, revisit your ethical memoir and address the following:

What ethical theory best applies to your experience?

Which significant author you have studied most speaks to your own ethical paradigm as you are (re)forming it now?

If you did not resolve your ethical dilemma when you experienced it, what would you do now and why?

For the oral presentation, briefly summarize your memoire and explore your process of transformation in this course.

Discuss your experiences of the course, your beginnings and where you are now. Consider your interaction in discussions and groups.

Are we a society of learners who greatly benefit from interactions?

Or are we islands, whose individual systems and beliefs are exclusive to ourselves?
