This ethical dilemma deals with professionalism, syllabus policies, and personal relationships. The stakeholders in this ethical dilemma would include Lauren, Mr. Mocel, other current students of Mr. Mocel’s biomechanics online course, other professors and administrators in the department of Exercise Science. In this specific ethical dilemma, the best solution for Mr. Mocel and Lauren is not so visible. There are many different people and situations to consider when making this decision for Lauren. The 3 following solutions address the dilemma that Mr. Mocel faces. These include, Mr. Mocel letting Lauren re take the final examination in hopes that Lauren keeps the re-take private, Mr. Mocel not letting Lauren retake the final examination because he doesn’t want to go against his policy but allowing her to complete an alternate assignment to achieve a passable, or that Mr. …show more content…

Mocel’s ethical dilemma with Lauren, Carol Gilligan’s Ethics of Care framework supports the decision to let Lauren retake the final examination. The Ethics of Care framework highlights the importance of everyone having a voice and being listened to and respected (Gilligan, 2011). In this solution, Lauren wants Mr. Mocel to believe her in what happened with her laptop and respect her as the hardworking student that she has proved herself to be to state the fact that she deserves another chance to take the final. In the same light, by Mr. Mocel allowing Lauren to re-take the final examination, Mr. Mocel wants Lauren to understand the risks associated with his decision which might potentially get him in trouble. Likewise, by allowing Lauren to retake the final examination, Lauren needs to respect Mr. Mocels privacy and promise to keep the re-take of the exam between the two of

  • Counselor Ethical Dilemma

    1003 Words  | 3 Pages

    Using the IMED the counselor would first recognize that CRW elements exist within the ethical dilemma and then identify them. For example, Ana got a bad grade on the math test after she had been given supports, and that may make her father feel as if she is bringing shame to the family. Next, the counselor would take into account the school policies and procedures, and ethical and legal issues such as that any abuse or suspected abuse must be reported to child protective services (State of Hawaii, 2007). Additionally, the counselor must take into consideration the ethical codes that would apply to this case. The counselor would consider the limits of confidentiality, such as American Counseling Association ([ACA] 2014) ethical standard B.2.a, and American School Counselor Association ([ASCA] 2010) ethical standards A.2.c and A.2.d, which all ethically support a counselor’s breach of confidentiality when there is foreseeable harm to the student. The counselor must also recognize the student’s developmental and chronological age when determining the risk of harm to the student (standard A.2.c [ASCA, 2010]). Next, the

  • Quiz Show by Robert Redford

    Ethics have been the principles that shape individual lives in modern society. It is a subjective idea that seems to have a standard in society. Ethics and morals are the major factors that guide individuals to make right and wrong choices. Something that is morally right to one person might be the very opposite of what another person will view as right. There are many factors that can trigger a change in an individual’s view of morality. These factors might be personal and self-centred, while others might be for the “general good”. In the 1994 movie, “Quiz Show” by Robert Redford, Charles Van Doren, a university professor from a very respectable family is faced with a decision that goes against his ethics and morals. Herb Stempel also faces difficult ethical decisions from the producers of the show, Twenty-One, just like Charles Van Doren, which could have affected his whole life. Richard Goodwin also had his own view of morality and his views did not change throughout the movie. Robert Redford in the movie Quiz Show shows that ethics play a decisive role when individuals respond to competing demands.

  • Ethics Case Study Essay Outline

    Within the case study of Billy it is evident that the teacher was willing to grant the extension; however there are ethical issues which go against this action. For Billy he may compromise the subject grade due to missing a deadline when submitting his work, on the other hand it is his first time and it is contrasting to his usual behaviour. There are three types of ethics that can be used to argue the case study, firstly consequentialism, this being that when an individual is faced with different choices they should determine the act that promotes better outcomes (Eggleston, 2005). Secondly deontology discusses the moral rightness and this claims that people have certain duties that should be adhered to (Booth, 2008), meaning that rules should be followed regardless of the outcomes. Finally, contextualism believes that no two cases are the same; they follow a strict set of ethical rules which can be altered if the outcome leads to greater good (BBC, 2013). These three theorists each have an ideology of how the teacher should act within the case study, all having their own differing opinions and views.

    In the following case, Luke is involved in a very perplexing conflict, or Ethical dilemma. This situation is an Ethical dilemma, and not just a regular “everyday” problem, because to Luke there might not be an obvious answer. He can also be thinking that both choices, keeping his commitments of confidentiality and telling his brother, Owen, are both correct things to do. If Luke tells his brother about the project, then he might concur with a theory known as Breach of confidentiality. “Breach of confidentiality occurs when someone gives away information that was supposed to be kept private.” (GENB4350 Online Lecture, Ethical Reasoning 1). By Luke breaching information that is supposed to be kept secret, he will betray the trust of his company

    “Ethics provide the tools to develop essential ethical decision-making skills” (Icheku, 2011, p. 13). It is defined as “the branch of moral philosophy that determines what is right (ethical) and wrong (unethical)” (Icheku, 2011, p. 20). Social workers are regularly confronted with ethical dilemmas in their practice and are forced to apply ethical principles and theories while engaging in practical decision-making. Ethics, however, do not always provide practical solutions to dilemmas. Albeit, social workers have to routinely consider their ethical standards and framework, values and morals within every situation. As a social worker Ryan (of given scenario) faces an ethical decision as a result of the ethical dilemma to which he is confronted. In certain conditions, ethical dilemmas occur when “an individual, called the “agent,” must make a decision about which course of action is best” (Grobman, 2012).
