[Expand Summary]
This module is designed to help you become aware of ethical issues that arise on a day-to-day basis in the context of practical and professional activities such as business, science, engineering, and computing. You will look at brief scenarios and then discuss how realistic they are, whether they portray ethical or unethical activities, and whether there is agreement or discord within your practical or professional community on these issues. This module was developed during a retreat funded by the National Science Foundation and held in Puerto Rico (NSF SBR-9810253). Its appearance in Connexions is part of the NSF-funded EAC (ethics across the curriculum) Toolkit, NSF SES 0551779.

[Expand Summary]
This module provides three frameworks that are essential to professional and occupational ethics classes being taught at the University of Puerto Rico - Mayaguez during the academic year of 2006-7. The first framework converts the Software Development Cycle into a decision-making framwork consisting of problem specification, solution generation, solution testing, and solution implementation. The second framework zeros in on the solution testing phase of the software development cycle by offering four tests to evaluate and rank solutions in terms of their ethical implications. The third framework offers a feasibility test designed to identify obstacles to implementing solutions that arise from situational constraints like resource, interest, and technical limitations. These frameworks are abbreviated from materials that will eventually be published in Good Computing: A Virtue Approach to Computer Ethics that is being authored by Chuck Huff, William Frey, and Jose Cruz-Cruz. They can also be supplimented by consulting www.computingcases.org and Engineering Ethics: Concepts and Cases by Rabins, Harris, and Pritchard. This module is being developed as a part of an NSF-funded project, "Collaborative Development of Ethics Across the Curriculum Resources and Sharing of Best Practices," NSF SES 0551779.

[Expand Summary]
This exercise, based on Bernard Williams' "Jim and the Jungle" scenario, helps students see the way they use ethical theories in their everyday reasoning. Williams' scenario is constructed as a classical dilemma--a no win situation that offers two courses of action both of which are bad. While Williams' intention was to criticize deontological and utilitarian ethical approaches for undermining personal integrity, this reformulation of the scenario into that of the Mountain Terrorist Exercise provides a ready means of distinguishing the ethical approaches of virtue, deontology, and utilitarianism. Students discuss the exercise. The instructor then shows how the different positions set forth fall under certain ethical categories. This debriefing can then be followed by a formal presentation that sets forth these three ethical theories in terms of their similarities and their differences. This module is being developed as a part of an NSF-funded project, "Collaborative Development of Ethics Across the Curriculum Resources and Sharing of Best Practices," NSF SES 0551779.
