Overview
- Answer the discussion prompt in 8-10 sentences.
- Reply to 2 other students (4-8 sentences per reply).
Discussion prompt: Thinking back over the course as a whole (not just the current module), answer some of the following questions. You do not need to answer every question, but choose at least two for your post.
- What ethical theory (or combination of theories) is most compelling to you, and why?
- Why is there ongoing disagreement about ethics rather than one standard set of "right answers" (for example, the debate between Kant, Mill, and Noddings which continues among their defenders today)?
- What are the biggest changes we are likely to see in ethical thought over the next 50 years?
