REQUIRMENT?(QUESTION)
Due Date: Midnight of Friday 19 Sep 2014, Weight: 30% (30 marks)
Description: A written analysis (3410ICT 2000 words; 7101ICT 2500 words) of a complex ethical problem similar to that which you might encounter in the IT industry. Using the Ethical Decision Model as outlined in the textbook, analyse the situation and arrive at a rational course of action. Your reasoning should be made clear (show how you arrived at the decision, don't just present the decision). You should make reference to the Normative Ethical Theories (as outlined in text) as part of your analysis. You are free to mention any other content from the text that you see fit to use.
This assignment is the first part of a two part assignment. In the second part (which is due later) the problem scenario is extended to a later time and you will perform a similar anlaysis on that more complex situation. The first part leads into the second part.
To help you understand the task:
1. Analyse the case study, making use of the Ethical Decision Making Model as provided in the text book. Your analysis should include the points of view of the main characters (Emily, Michael and James).
2. Synthesise the findings of your analysis into a prioritised set of conclusions for each of the main characters, and
3. Evaluate and present your conclusions to determine what would be the ethical course of action for Emily, Michael & James?
Watch the How To Video (15 Min).
Criteria & Marking: Your result be be determined based on:
• How deep your analysis went using the EDM (there are subtle issues that anin-depth analysis will find),
• How valid your supporting arguments were,
• Other supporting material from text,
• How well it is all presented (clear, concise, grammatically correct, use of template), and
• No more than 10% duplicate text reading on TurnitIn (due to copying from the Case Study and other sources including external sources - the work MUST be your own).
You have considerable freedom within the broad constraints listed above. Take into account that there is no one right way of doing the assignment, there are only degrees of correctness. Individual students have much scope to present their case and their findings. Unlike programming where a solution is either correct or incorrect, there is inherent ambiguity in ethical analysis. Use this sample analysis as a guide.
