Ethics Day 2

  • Did you hand in your Ethics Workbook Chapter One?
  • As a warm-up, consider these ethical questions.  What do you think?
  1. If something at a yard sale is far more valuable than the posted price, do I have to let the seller know?
  2. Is it considered stealing to take pens from a bank? What about extra napkins from a fast-food restaurant?
  3. If a charity sends me free address labels and I don't make a contribution, is it OK to use them?
  4. Is it unfair to move into better (open) seats at a sporting event or a concert?
  5. My boss gave me credit for a project on which a colleague did most of the work. Should i accept the praise?
  6. Am I obligated to lend money to friends and family?
  7. If someone tells an offensive joke, is it my responsibility to speak up about it?
  • With Mr. Mac's guidance, students work through Chapter Two of The Ethics Workbook.
  • Reminder of items due/overdue (assignment break-down: what is from Term 1 and 2, what is from Term 3?).
