The fall semester zipped by (I must be getting awfully old) and the new one begins. As it happens, this is my writing-researching-non-teaching term, so in addition to launching a new book and the new edition of an old one, I’m working on a new book proposal and contemplating what I’ve learned about ethics and professionalism from my students last term.
I learn a great deal from every student I encounter – although not all of them add to the new knowledge – sometimes they teach me about myself or about the world in general. This past semester was especially interesting since the students completed an ethics video assignment. I thought I’d share a few of them.
We’ll start with a test of your ethics. The questions that the students pose in this thought-provoking piece are some of the ones that we explored through the term. Do you have answers?
