  Are there situations that are morally acceptable to be dishonest

  $49.00

  Course Writing Assignment

  In your writing assignment you will analyze a moral question from the perspective of the four families of moral values.

  Your first step is to select a moral question from Section 1 (The Personal), Section 2 (The Public), or Section 3 (The Political) of George’s What Should I Do?
  Once you have selected a moral question, you must prepare an analysis of that question that consists of six sections. The sections of your analysis must be completed in the following way.

  Section One
  In Section One you must first state the moral question you are working with and then give a summary of what the philosopher or philosophers say about that question in George, What Should I Do?. Also include a brief commentary on what the philosophers’ response, that is, say what you found to be most important in the philosophers’ response and why, and say what you found most controversial in the philosophers’ response and why. Write at least two pages for Section One (and please do not write more than four pages).

  Sections Two, Three, Four, and Five
  In the next four sections you must analyze the question from four different moral points of view:
  Section Two: Kant’s Categorical Imperative (pp. 126-130 of Weston)
  Section Three: Utilitarianism (pp. 148-155 of Weston)
  Section Four: Virtue (pp. 173-188 of Weston)
  Section Five: Ethics of Care (pp. 201-216 of Weston)

  Your analysis in each case must consist of the following two components. First, you must explain how moral questions are framed and answered from within that perspective. Second, you must say how the moral question you are working with would be answered from that perspective and explain why. Sections Two, Three, Four and Five should be at least two pages long (and please do not write more than four pages for each section).

  Section Six
  Section Six is your conclusion in which you state your own considered answer to the moral question. Be sure to explain in detail why you believe that your answer is the correct answer. Your answer may be that you are not sure what the correct answer to the question is, along with an explanation of why different moral values or perspectives seem to be pulling you in different directions on that question.

  Format Requirements
  You must use a bold heading for each section (Section One, Section Two, etc.). Your name and the words “Ethics, PHIL 1103” must appear at the top of your submission. You must number the pages. Your submission must be prepared as an MS Word or pdf file. You must submit your writing assignment to the appropriate Dropbox folder by the deadline (the deadline is given in the Course Calendar).

  Tips for good philosophical writing

  Clarity of expression is of maximum importance in this sort of writing; clarity is the chief stylistic aim. One strategy for writing clearly is to write as simply as possible: write short sentences in the active voice, avoid rhetorical questions, patiently explain each move your thinking is taking, and spend time making your strange or controversial claims sound plausible. Reading your paper aloud to yourself will help to expose places where explanation would be helpful. Remember that the goal is not just to express your ideas, but to express your ideas in a way that can be understood by others. Drawing distinctions is one of the most important tasks of philosophical writing about ethics. There are many different kinds of rights and virtues, many different ways to understand what ‘well-being’ and ‘care’ mean. Always ask yourself “what are some different senses here” of any concept or notion that plays an important role in your work.

  Standards of Evaluation
  In grading your submission, attention will be given to the following: use of English (grammar, spelling, punctuation), whether each of the required tasks in each section was attempted, clarity of expression, the detail in which the ideas are explored, and imagination.

  Cultural Self-Inventory Paper: The Influences of Gender, Race, and Class on My Social Identity

  Cultural Self-Inventory Paper:

  The Influences of Gender, Race, and Class on My Social Identity

  Abstract
  According to Brenda Allen in Difference Matters, social identity refers to “aspects of a person’s self-image derived from group-based categories,” and this identity affects how we interact or relate to other individuals and groups (Allen, 2011, p. 11). A self-inventory in determining my own social identity would include the roles of daughter and daughter-in-law, sister, wife, mother, and soon, a mother-in-law within my family group. At work, I am part of the group of registered nurses, operating within the larger healthcare provider group. In my pursuit of a higher nursing degree, I am a student. In my community, I am a volunteer, a neighbor, and a responsible citizen, following the laws and rules of the community where I live. I also identify with other groups; I am from the Northeastern part of the country, I am American, white, heterosexual, a woman, middle-class, and Christian. Most predominant in my self-assessment, though, and the factors that have shaped my reality the most in my opinion, are my race, gender, and social class. Being a woman has influenced my education and career decisions and my relationships within my family. Being white has afforded me opportunities that have affected my social class and job opportunities. Despite movement in class, my gender has had negative influence on potential within the corporate world, leading to a career change. These power influences of the forces of gender, race, and, to some degree, social class on my identity will be discussed in the following pages.

  Cultural Self-Inventory Paper – Who am I

  Abstract
  Who am I? As simple as this question is, it has a much more profound and complex answer. I smile to myself as my mind immediately recalls the essay written by Brian in the movie The Breakfast Club. According to Brian (Tanen, Hughes, & Hughes, 1986), “you see us as you want to see us.” His message regarding the stereotypes and social expectations of society are accurate and these classifications can have a powerful influence on how an individual is molded throughout his or her life. As I contemplate my past experiences and confrontations, I come to the realization that I, too, have been shaped by outside forces. So I sit here, perfectly molded, and summarize my present self into words

  WR 39C: ARGUMENT & RESEARCH – Women’s Empowerment and Economic Development

  $37.50

  The Historical Conversations Project

  Two major projects comprise the 39C curriculum: The Historical Conversations Project (HCP) and The Advocacy Project (AP). This first one, the HCP, asks you to do four things: (1) present and analyze a significant political/social/cultural problem; (2) frame this problem with motives or warrants, which are current examples, incidents, or arguments that convince your audience that the problem you’re addressing and the questions you’re asking are alive and relevant right now; (3) summarize and critically evaluate various conversations and debates made by credible scholars and organizations about your topic; and (4) decipher the historical contexts of the problem at hand by locating at least 2 pieces of evidence, at least one from the past and one from the present, that tie the problem as we see it today to its past.

  Over the next four weeks you will work on this project, which will be submitted for a grade at the end of week four. One of the main purposes of this first assignment is to expose you and your peers to various topics, arguments, histories, and background knowledge that will enable you engage with each other rigorously and productively over the course of the quarter. Another purpose is to begin the process of teaching you how to locate, evaluate, select, arrange, and integrate sources into a multi-modal composition. As a genre of communication—and in the case of this assignment, one that frames a problem, delivers arguments, uses evidence, and speaks to a broad audience—a multi-modal composition can be a synthesis of various rhetorical positions—visual and written for example—that work together to deepen argumentative positions and claims. Your composition’s multi-modality will come from your use of these two modes together.

  You may be asking yourself (and you should ask your teacher), “What is a composition and what does it mean if it’s multi-modal?” Musicians, artists, and architects sometimes think of their creations as compositions so they can understand and shape various elements within them and clarify how such elements relate to each other as a coherent whole. In your case, you will locate at least two pieces of evidence, one from the present that helps you define the problem you are exploring and one from the past that deciphers this problem’s historical context. And then you will use credible sources to describe for your readers how these distinct pieces of evidence work together to explain the viability of the contemporary problem.

  You will need to ask a number of questions in order to understand how your key pieces of evidence speak to each to each other: How does the “artifact” from the past illustrate the evolution of the problem? What arguments do scholars make about the problem’s past and its present? What are scholars and credible people and organizations debating about the problem and its past? As you explain how and why certain historical changes tie you central pieces of evidence together, you will have to think creatively to arrange your arguments and your evidence, both your key pieces of evidence and scholarly sources, to persuade your audience that the historical foundation you have located is meaningful to our understanding of the problem in the present. Such creative, organizational thinking in music, for example, results in beautiful transitions between parts of a song and makes for a unique song; imagine one of your favorites and think about how its parts are arranged and how the arrangement of the parts makes the song complete.

  Additional Guidance

  What is a “Key Piece of Evidence” for the HCP?

   -Key Evidence (Present): It can be a table of data, an image or a series of images or an incident. It is something that clearly articulates the cultural, political, and social problem that is the focus of your project.

  -How do you locate your evidence?

  Any social, cultural, or political problem that demands the attention of scholars, intellectuals, thinktanks and advocacy organizations will be defined by and grounded in evidence, and these pieces of evidence are what you are trying to find. What sorts of evidence do your scholarly and credible resources use to substantiate their arguments?

  -Key Evidence (Past): Like your evidence from the present, your historical artifact(s) can be a compilation of statistics in a table or a graph, an image, an incident, ideas and arguments from primary sources, stories, and various art forms. You can use credible sources to locate your historical “artifacts,” and in selecting them think and write about how the historical evidence speaks to your central problem in the present. Try to describe how your historical pieces reside in the past, summarize how they speak to your contemporary evidence, and explain how the historical dialogue between these two pieces or bodies of evidence connects the present with the past. The historical space between them, which documents historical changes, will enable you to articulate clearly the importance of your central problem in the present.

  Reflective Prompts

   -What specific aspects of your historical evidence make it historical? Is it far enough back in time to be considered historical? Does it represent significant and meaningful historical changes?

   -What are my credible sources saying about my historical evidence?

   -How is my historical evidence different from my contemporary evidence? Why are they different? Are they too different to speak to each other to capture historical changes?

   -What arguments am I using from my scholarly sources and contemporary research to explain the historical relationship between my two bodies/pieces of evidence?

   -What significant historical changes explain the relationship between my sources? What credible sources am I using to support such explanations and summaries of historical change?

  Discourse Community Issues

  $37.50

  Introduction
  Changes in professions or fields, or changes in broader cultures in which professions exist can affect a professional discourse community – and change how professionals do or should communicate. How professionals in a given discourse community handle communication issues – conflicts, misunderstandings, or lack of communication options, for example – within a discourse community can shed light on how that discourse community communicates, and what it values, as well as how a profession or field is situated in wider cultural and global contexts. For this paper, you will research and analyze a current communication issue in your future profession or field. You will then argue for the issue’s importance to the profession (or some major element of it), presenting information about the issue and its context to an audience unfamiliar with your profession so that the audience can understand more about your profession or field.

  Task and Content
  Write an essay that makes a persuasive argument identifying an important communication issue in your professional field and why it is important to the profession (or some major element of it).

  • First, you will need to identify and describe the shared goals (“common public goals” per Swales) and underlying values of your professional discourse community and how they are articulated.
  • Then, through your research on the problem, you will discover that the shared goals and values of discourse communities are sometimes articulated directly and sometimes tacitly. This project will help you uncover these goals and values through careful analysis of a communication issue in your professional field.
  • Finally, you must present information about the issue and its context so that an audience unfamiliar with your profession can understand enough about your profession or field to see why this is an important issue.

  Learning Objectives (you should be able to…)

  • conduct field-specific research to identify relevant sources about communication issues and practices
  • conduct careful rhetorical analysis of webtexts (Webtexts are texts in electronic media written by professionals for professionals in your professional discourse community (i.e, blogs, web sites, etc).
  • analyze and develop insight about your field’s communication dynamics
  • apply the concept of ‘discourse community’ (Swales) to your professional community
  • argue persuasively about the shared goals and underlying values of your professional community (what, how, where, why)
  • use appropriate terms of rhetorical analysis
  • produce persuasive analysis of a communication issue in your profession
  • frame your analysis for an unfamiliar audience

  This assignment requires the following:

  1. Find three professional community webtexts on a communication issue in your profession. Webtexts are texts in electronic media written by professionals for professionals in your professional discourse community (i.e, blogs, web sites, etc).
  2. Find three texts about your profession which either discusses your exact communication issue or a similar problem in your profession through Gutman Library. (i.e: secondary sources)
  3. Analyze the texts to determine how they define the discourse community, considering the following questions: How does each text contribute to a definition of the discourse community per Swales’ 6 categories — shared goals, mechanisms of intercommunication, use of participatory mechanisms, use of specific genres, specific lexis, threshold level of members? How does the writer’s approach to audience, purpose, context, and genre help to communicate the message? What do audience, purpose, context, and genre say or suggest about the discourse community’s shared goals and values?
  4. Identify and fully describe the communication issue as it relates to your profession or field.
  5. Explain why this issue is important for your field or profession (how it affects your field or profession). This will inform your thesis and so should be a major theme of the paper.
  6. Analyze why this is an issue right now: What is unresolved? What is left to be decided? What is unknown? What has changed, if anything? Is this an issue that is limited to the profession or field, do you think, or is it part of a larger cultural issue?
  7. A discussion & analysis who is involved (who is directly and indirectly affected by this issue), and whose concerns are more important or relevant (if any) and why.
  8. Create an example of a dilemma in which a professional in your field might find themselves regarding this issue, and at least two possible ways in which this individual might act to resolve the dilemma.

  Purpose and Audience

  The purpose of your essay is to convince your audience – your peers in the class including those who are NOT in your major and someone you imagine who might have a stake in the profession – about the importance of your communication issue to your field.
