Ethical Systems Table
• Fill in brief definitions of each primary ethical theory.
• Identify alternate names or variations of each ethical system based on your reading of the text and supplemental materials.
• Match the real-world examples listed below with the corresponding systems. The first one has been completed for you in the table.
Real-World Examples
A. I believe people should be able to eat sand if they like the taste of it.
B. I believe that if sand is going to be eaten, it should be available for everyone to eat.
C. I believe people should be able to eat sand because it is the right thing to do.
D. I believe people should be able to eat sand because it is good for one’s health.
E. I believe people should be able to eat sand if they decide they want to, regardless of whether it is someone else’s sand.
F. I believe people should be able to eat sand if they want to because they are free to make the decision themselves.
G. I believe I will eat sand because it is the standard meal for my community.
• Develop your own workplace example that fits with each system. Present each workplace scenario in a substantial paragraph of approximately 40 words. Although the table field will expand to accommodate your workplace examples, you may list them at the end of the table; make a note in the table to see the attached examples, however, so your facilitator knows to look for scenarios below the table.
• Format references consistent with APA guidelines and include them after the table.
