The resources and exercises here promote systematic building of knowledge, discussion and real world application. This can be supported further with the <a href="ibcp/page/33793/ethical-thinking-" title="The Core » Core: The Reflective Project » Skills » Ethical Thinking ">Ethical Thinking </a>&nbsp;and <a href="ibcp/page/33788/critical-thinking" title="The Core » Core: The Reflective Project » Skills » Critical Thinking">Critical Thinking</a> pages.</h6><p>In brief ... students should be able to establish the ethical parameters of their dilemma and the questions it raises at the start of their essay to hook in the interest of the reader/assessor. They then must be able to carry that thread throughout the project as they way up the strength and weaknesses of different perspectives and impact of cultural contexts.</p><h5>How &#39;ethical&#39; does it need to be?</h5><p>We are not often called to define ethics explicitly and differentiate between ethical terms. Students struggle with terms - especially the term &#39;dilemma&#39; so being able to break this down without over complication is vital. This is an area that PPS and Core teachers can easily feel out of their depth; confused how to approach building ethical understanding and which ethical frameworks to draw upon in such a huge academic field. Furthermore, how to simplify complex ideas without dumbing them down to make them user friendly.&nbsp;</p><div class="greenBg"><h5><a href="Browse server to select file" target="_blank" title="Key points"><img class="ico" src="img/materials/key-24.png" style="vertical-align: middle" /> </a>5 Key points about ethics to build the reflective project on:</h5><p>Students&#39; projects must be built upon the following understandings. Students can use this as a checklist before</p><p>1. Ethics are about the moral principles that <strong>govern, shape or guide the behaviour of a particular &#39;culture&#39;. </strong><br /><br />2. Ethics and morals can be terms used interchangeably but, at its simplest: <span class="ILfuVd NA6bn"><span class="e24Kjd"><b>ethics</b> refer to rules provided by an external source<b> </b>and <b>morals</b> refer to an individual&#39;s own principles regarding right and wrong.</span></span><span class="ILfuVd NA6bn"><span class="e24Kjd"><br /><br />3. An ethical issue worth exploring for the reflective project must have a <strong><em>controversial</em> </strong>angle and arise from the <strong>career-related study.</strong>&nbsp; There must be disagreement or conflict ...<br /><br />4. ... which leads to the ethical <em>dilemma. </em>For a dilemma to be viable, there must be a <strong>clash </strong>of principles without an obvious solution. With an obvious solution, there is no dilemma. </span></span></p><p>5. Therefore the reflective project to explore an ethical dilemma, it must have the opportunity to:&nbsp; analyse different <strong>pespectives</strong>; contextualise the dilemma with <strong>local or global </strong>examples; consider the <strong>impact </strong>of the ethical dilemma on community or communities; consider the impact of cultural influences</p><p><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/4vWXpzlL7Mo" width="640"></iframe></p></div></div></div><div class="panel panel-has-footer" style="box-shadow: rgba(68, 51, 0, 0.3) 0px 10px 30px -15px; border-color: rgb(217, 153, 0);"><div class="panel-heading" style="background-color: rgb(217, 153, 0);"><a class="expander pull-right" href="#"><span class="fa fa-plus"></span></a><div><p>Ethics: laying the foundations</p></div></div><div class="panel-body" style=""><div>The IB&#39;s mission statement refers to the importance of appreciating how <strong>&#39;other people with their differences, can also be right&#39;</strong>; this notion that is at the heart of the reflective project.

However students will need to utilise the other branches of ethics to evaluate their ethical dilemma effectively.</p><div class="box"><h5><strong>Meta-ethics </strong></h5><p><span style="color:#0000FF;"><strong>Key question: </strong>What is it to be morally right or morally wrong?</span></p><p><strong>Meta-ethics </strong>studies the<em> nature of ethical judgments</em>, the definition of ethical terms and different ways ethical arguments can be carried out. It is a step back from whether something is right or wrong; more <em>the nature </em>of right and wrong or good and bad.</p><p><strong>How does this relate to the reflective project? </strong>This is the starting point for students in understanding what it means to be moral or ethical. It is the nature of how ethics affects their present and their future; why is an ethical education necessary? It is also the nature of why ethical judgments take place, in what form and why this is important. More specifically, students will have considered the nature of ethical judgments and arguments within their career-related subject itself as well as in PPS. Without the foundation of definitions, it is impossible for students to select and issue and dilemma that will be appropriate and successful for their reflective project.</p><div><strong>Source: </strong>An overview of the importance of an ethical education<br />&nbsp;</div><div><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/_8juebyo_Z4" width="640"></iframe></div></div><div class="box"><h5><strong>Normative ethics</strong></h5><p><span style="color:#0000FF;"><strong>Key question: </strong>What does it mean to act ethically? Should ethical behaviour be influenced by what is right for the person; the intention behind the action itself; or what the consequence will be? </span></p><p><strong>Normative ethics ... </strong>is all about creating <em>theories and frameworks for ethical behaviour</em>. The attention here is turned away from the moral nature of ethics but more towards how we should act. The &#39;act&#39; in itself has three moral angles to consider: the agent, the act itself and the consequences; furthermore they are each emphasised respectively in Virtue, deontological and consequentialist ethics.</p><p><strong>How does this relate to the reflective project? </strong>Normative ethics give students the appropriate tools to analyse behaviour and judge whether it is ethical. By using specific frameworks that consider the multiple angles of ethical response, will enable students to identify their own ethical compass and voice. Using ethical frameworks also gives students the confidence to extend their thinking with questions that start &#39;but what if ...?&#39; This leads onto Applied ethics as they will have the tools by which to evaluate the specific ethical issue and dilemma they have identified.</p><p><strong>Source:</strong> Three introductory videos on examples of Virtue, deontological and consequentialist ethics</p><div class="blueBg"><h5><strong>Virtue ethics </strong></h5><p>Commonly known as <em>agent-centred</em> or <em>teleological</em> ethics; pursues &#39;eudaimonia&#39; (human flourishing).&nbsp;<br /><strong>Key words:</strong> virtues, vices and the Golden Mean; &#39;You are what you do&#39;; Catholic &#39;natural moral law&#39;<br /><strong>Key questions:</strong> Who am I?

This philosophy was first associated with Jeremy Bentham who stated &#39;an action is right if it brings about more pleasure than pain and wrong if it brings more pain than pleasure&#39;.<br /><strong>Key words:</strong> Hedonic calculus, univeralizability, &#39;the greatest good for the greatest number&#39;.</p><p><strong>Source: </strong>This is a good introduction to the basics of an extensive topic.</p><p><strong>&nbsp;<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/uvmz5E75ZIA" width="500"></iframe></strong><br />&nbsp;</p><h5>Example 2: Situation ethics</h5><p>This is a consequentialist theory influenced by the Christian notion of love and made prominent in the 1960s through Joseph Fletcher. Agape (love) is that the heart of all moral-decision making which can differ in many situations. Actions are only defined&nbsp; as moral by their consequence.<br /><strong>Key words: </strong>agape, four working principles, six fundamental principles, relativism, pragmatism, positivism, personalism.</p><p><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/stj2SHI77EY" width="640"></iframe></p><h5></h5></div></div><div class="box"><h5><strong>Applied ethics</strong></h5><p><span style="color:#0000FF;"><strong>Key question:</strong> What are the different ethical courses of action in this situation? </span></p><p>Applied ethics seeks to <em>apply normative ethics</em> and subsequent frameworks in practical situations.</p><p><strong>How does this relate to the reflective project?</strong> The reflective project is about critical thinking to a specific current ethical dilemma in their career-related subject; this is a project about applying ethics. Students need parameters within which to work which is why their understanding of normative ethics must be built up systemmatically and clear in how to apply it in a range of scenarios. The contextualising of the ethical dilemma through a local and/or global examples and consideration of its impact emphasises the unique nature of a specific situation on an ethical dilemma.</p><p><strong>Source: </strong>The whistle-blower: this talk is a fascinating exploration of the importance of ethical principles in the workplace and authentic example of applied ethics.</p><div><div style="max-width:854px"><div style="position:relative;height:0;padding-bottom:56.25%"><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="480" scrolling="no" src="https://embed.ted.com/talks/kelly_richmond_pope_how_whistle_blowers_shape_history" style="position:absolute;left:0;top:0;width:100%;height:100%" width="854"></iframe></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><div class="panel panel-darkorange"><div class="panel-heading"><a class="expander pull-right" href="#"><span class="fa fa-plus"></span></a><div><p>Getting students started</p></div></div><div class="panel-body"><div><h5>Thinking routines to promote ethical thinking and debate</h5><p>Students can have it drilled into them that they must question what they see but they do not necessarily know how to ask questions or what questions are worth asking. The key to thinking routines such as these below, attributed to and adapted from Harvard Project Zero, and why they work so well is that it is never presumed that the student knows what questions to ask. Most importantly is to remember the word &#39;routine&#39; - these are habits of mind, to be visited often so the structure becomes a familiar process. With this familiarity, comes confidence, clarity of communication and enhanced critical thinking.</p><h5><a href="Browse server to select file" target="_blank" title="Activities"><img class="ico" src="img/materials/activities-24.png" style="vertical-align: middle" />&nbsp;</a>Same and Different</h5><p>This is a Harvard Project Zero thinking routine that helps students go beyond superficial observations of similarities and differences. It is an excellent routine to carry out for students to appreciate that ethical dimensions, issues and dilemmas are not black and white or contain polar opposites: often the truth is murky and grey with subtleties and degrees of difference.</p><div class="greyBg"><div class="box"><div><p>&#39;Choose a debate, incident or object in which opposing views are clearly apparent or images that look different but are grouped together. <span class="markedContent" id="page103R_mcid4"><span dir="ltr" role="presentation" style="left: 76px; top: 530.573px; font-size: 16.6667px; font-family: sans-serif; transform: scaleX(0.987933);"></span></span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"><strong>1.

As a whole class activity, especially with a bigger class size, once the thinking routine has been established, different groups can be given a specific and relevant stakeholder from the initial prompt, to develop and research further. The evaluation of similarities and differences can be done as a whole class where their responses to stage 3 above can be expanded upon and more and more complexities developed.</p><p>2. On an individual level, students can carry out this activity when using a specific article they are utilising for the ethical issue they are researching. The identification of specific stakeholders, visibly recording the different points of view and recording similarities and differences should be a habitual part of their research process. Students might consider recording their ideas in a venn diagram to help them visualise this process.</p></section></div></div></div></div><div class="panel-footer"><div></div></div></div><div class="panel panel-has-footer panel-has-planner" style="box-shadow: rgba(17, 34, 51, 0.3) 0px 10px 30px -15px; border-color: rgb(39, 45, 105);"><div class="panel-heading" style="background-color: rgb(39, 45, 105);"><a class="expander pull-right" href="#"><span class="fa fa-plus"></span></a><div><p>Lesson Plan: Speak YOUR mind</p></div></div><div class="panel-body" style=""><h5>Aim: Through debate of an ethical dilemma, students vocalise their instinctive course of action and reflect on the ethical dimension of different class responses.</h5><div class="yellowBg"><h5>Step 1: Exploring Utilitarianism with the Trolley dilemma</h5><p>a) Introduce the Trolley problem by playing just the <strong>first minute</strong> of this video.

They might also consider the role of &#39;white lies&#39; in the functioning of healthy relationships within a family. In terms of supporting this maxim, students might consider the functioning of a court of law and, more widely, the role of truth in society. Furthermore, they might consider the role of truth in their career-related subject and the implications of not telling the truth. The TED talk above by Kelly Richmond Pope on whistleblowing could support this discussion further.</p></section><h5>c) Consequentialist: includes Utilitarianism and Situation Ethics as examples</h5><p><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/uGDk23Q0S9E" width="500"></iframe></p></div></div><div class="panel-footer"><div><section class="footnotes"><header><h2>Footnotes</h2></header><ol><li data-footnote-id="c5d0a" id="footnote-1"><a class="scroll-to" data-target="footnote-marker-1-1">^</a> <cite>Harvard Project Zero, http://www.pz.harvard.edu/sites/default/files/Same%20and%20Different.pdf</cite></li></ol></section></div></div></div></section></article><section id="media-extras"><div class="page-actions no-print navbar inline hidden-desktop"><div class="navbar-inner"><ul class="nav"><li><a class="presentation"  href="#" onclick="return false;"><i class="fa fa-desktop"></i></a></li><li><a class="print-section-blog"  href="#" onclick="return false;"><i class="fa fa-print"></i></a></li><li><a class="personal-notes"  href="#" onclick="return false;"><i class="fa fa-file-text"></i></a></li><li class="dropdown"><a class="dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown" data-target="#" href="#"><i class="fa fa-share-alt"></i></a><ul class="dropdown-menu" role="menu"><li><a class="" target="_blank" title="Share on Twitter" href="https://twitter.com/share?text=%22Ethical+dimensions%2C+issues+and+dilemmas.+%22+-+via+%40InThinker+%23ibcp%0A&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thinkib.net%2Fibcp%2Fpage%2F33782%2Fethical-dimensions-issues-and-dilemmas-"><i class="fa fa-twitter-square"></i><span>Twitter</span></a></li><li><a class="" target="_blank" title="Share on Facebook" href="https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thinkib.net%2Fibcp%2Fpage%2F33782%2Fethical-dimensions-issues-and-dilemmas-&t=Ethical+dimensions,+issues+and+dilemmas.+"><i class="fa fa-facebook-square"></i><span>Facebook</span></a></li><li><a class=""  href="http://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thinkib.net%2Fibcp%2Fpage%2F33782%2Fethical-dimensions-issues-and-dilemmas-"><i class="fa fa-linkedin-square"></i><span>LinkedIn</span></a></li><li><a class=""  href="https://plus.google.com/share?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thinkib.net%2Fibcp%2Fpage%2F33782%2Fethical-dimensions-issues-and-dilemmas-"><i class="fa fa-google-plus-square"></i><span>Google +</span></a></li><li><a class=""  href="mailto:?subject=Ethical dimensions, issues and dilemmas. &amp;body=Finding the ethical dimension, issue and dilemmaBeore students, can find a suitable ethical issue and dilemma to analyse critically at the centre of the reflective project process, teachers need to feel comfortable tackling...%0Ahttps%3A%2F%2Fwww.thinkib.net%2Fibcp%2Fpage%2F33782%2Fethical-dimensions-issues-and-dilemmas-"><i class="fa fa-envelope"></i><span>Email</span></a></li></ul></li><li><a class=""  href="ibcp/teaching-materials"><i class="fa fa-puzzle-piece colored"></i></a></li></ul></div></div><div style="border-top: solid 1px #eee;border-bottom: solid 1px #eee;padding: 4px 0 4px 0;line-height: 1em;color: #666;font-size: .8em"><small><em>All materials on this website are for the exclusive use of teachers and students at subscribing schools for the period of their subscription.
