Case Studies Discussions
Objectives:
Analyze a current debate case.
Explain an argument that supports a position for or against the case.
Apply an ethical theory to your argument.
INSTRUCTIONS:
CHOOSE ONE CASE from the following Options:
OPTION 1. Read case: “Why Suicide.” (Module: Ethics: “schedule and readings.”)
The ethical question is: Should Netflix broadcast the show “Thirteen reasons why?”
OPTION 2: Read case: “Fight over Friday for the Future.” (The readings are in Modules: Ethics: Schedule and Readings.)
The ethical question is: Should children be allowed to protest unsupervised during school hours?
OPTION 3: Read “Pay to Play” (The readings are in Modules: Ethics: Schedule and Readings.)
INSTRUCTIONS. Write three- five paragraphs evaluating the ethical issues of the case and arguing FOR or AGAINST a position from the question. Make sure to pick ONE position (for or against), identify the stakeholders, address various ethical issues (e.g., freedom of speech, responsibility of schools to ensure students’ safety, environmental ethics, autonomy, etc.), give at least 1 argument that supports your position, and explain and reply to a possible objection.
FORMAT:
Paragraph 1: Summarize the case scenario briefly, focusing on the elements that you will address in your argument.
Paragraph 2: State your thesis (pick a position either FOR or AGAINST)
Paragraph 3: Give one argument that supports the thesis. Remember to explain your argument fully, using examples or scenarios. You may support your argument by using a theory (either Utilitarianism or Deontology). Give details about your argument.
Paragraph 4: Explain a possible objection against your argument. (i.e., what would someone say who disagrees with your position?)
Paragraph 5: Reply to that possible objection.
Tips:
-For structure, use signposting such as “One argument to support this position is . . .”, “A possible objection against this position is . .. .”, ” A reply to this position is . . .”
Keep your paragraphs separate: One topic per paragraph. See Professional Writing Skills: Structure
–Your goal is to give objective arguments to support a thesis.Use the theories that we have studied to support your arguments. One of your arguments must explicitly address one of the ethical theories we covered (Utilitarianism, Deontology). Think about what Bentham or Kant would say.
–Make sure your arguments do not commit any obvious fallacy such as anecdotal evidence, emotional appeal, fallacy of assertion (stating beliefs or opinions), straw man, etc.
–Make sure you give REASONS for the position.
— Explain your arguments fully, using examples or scenarios. Pretend that your reader doesn’t know the case, and does not agree with you. Explain your argument fairly and sufficiently and avoid general statements.
–Your last paragraph (or two) should explain a possible objection against your argument, and then explain your reply. I.e., if your thesis is FOR a position, explain an argument AGAINST the position, and reply to that argument.
