Ethical Dilemma Project – Hallmark Assessment Task
Purpose and Process
It gives you with the opportunity to apply the knowledge and skills you develop in this course to a complex ethical dilemma. After choosing from one of three ethical dilemma scenarios provided in the “Course Documents” section of Blackboard, you will proceed through an exploration of the dilemma and make a decision about the appropriate course of action. Specifically, you will identify the key question you are addressing, explore the possible options, select and justify a decision, apply ethical perspective(s) in explaining how you came to your decision, identify your assumptions, and explore the probable consequences of the decision.
