you will choose one of the case studies below.  You will write a short (750-1000 words/3-4 pages, double spaced) paper reviewing the case and applying two ethical frameworks (utilitarianism, Kantianism or contractarianism). 

You will submit an outline first, get feedback on that, and then we will have a workshop-style class on 3/5 so everyone can ask questions about their feedback and work on the paper during class. 

Your paper should include your name, a title, the essay, and a bibliography in APA format.  The structure of the essay must use the following headers:

    Introduction.  Introduce the basic details of the case.  Your introduction should be 1 paragraph. Make sure you describe the case IN YOUR OWN WORDS and cite as appropriate. Briefly describe the scenario and the stakeholders.  Stick to the facts.  APA uses in text citation (not footnotes).  If you need help with formatting, you can use Citation Machine. 
    Ethical Issues.  This section should identify the central ethical issues in your case and should be 1-2 paragraphs.
    Application of Ethical Framework #1.  Here you will apply one of the ethical frameworks to this particular case.  Make sure you provide an overview of the guiding principles of the ethical theory.  What should be done WHY (according the to the principles of that framework)?  This section should be 1-2 paragraphs.
    Application of Ethical Framework #2.  Here you will apply one of the ethical frameworks to this particular case.  Make sure you provide an overview of the guiding principles of the ethical theory.  What should be done WHY (according the to the principles of that framework)? This section should be 1-2 paragraphs.
    Conclusion.  In your conclusion you will take a position on which ethical framework is the most helpful in providing a satisfactory resolution to this case and explain why.
