Select an ethical principle, or short piece of ethical reasoning that you applied during two or more case study analyses this Trimester. Use a few sentences to describe the principle/piece of reasoning, and what following the principle would look like in practice. Describe a situation in your everyday life where the principle could help guide your actions. (The situation might or might not seem particularly ‘ethical’.) LO1, LO4 Suggestions for discussion: • The key normative claim from one of the three main ethical theories of the course (Consequentialism; Deontology; Virtue Ethics) • A general principle e.g. ‘Do no harm’; e.g. The Golden Rule: ‘Treat others as you would be treated’ /10 2. Nominate EITHER a weekly topic from MAN202 that you particularly enjoyed studying OR a weekly topic that you initially found difficult to understand. What made the topic enjoyable or challenging? Can you imagine a workplace situation (present or future) where you might need to apply what you learned that week? LO1, LO4 For the purposes of this question, you are not being scored on how ‘easy’ or ‘difficult’ you found a topic to learn. Instead, you are being scored for your efforts to trace you ‘learning journey’ for one of the course topics. Sometimes, we learn more from those topics we struggled to learn, rather than topics that initially seemed easy. This is because a ‘difficult’ topic can only be mastered by replacing our existing ideas with more complex intellectual schemas. Once mastered, these more complex schemas can have a lasting influence upon our behavior. /10 3. Describe one or more measures that you intend to put in place to ensure that you live up to your personal values in the workplace. LO1, LO3, LO4 Here you are being asked to reflect upon the Week 12 topic (Living up to one’s values). /10 Total /30 Page 3 Kaplan Business School Assessment Outline Important Study Information Academic Integrity Policy KBS values academic integrity.
