Building ethical judgment capabilities | Computer Science homework help
Introduction
Computer ethics is a rich topic that affects all of us in our interconnected world. To build good ethical judgment capabilities, Bynum and Rogerson (1) suggest applying a multi-staged approach to case study analysis where these stages are defined as: (1) detailing the case study, (2) identifying key ethical principles and specific ethical issues raised by the case, (3) calling on your experience and skills for evaluation, and (4) applying a systematic analysis technique. In this assignment, you will perform the first three of these steps for a case study.The specific course learning outcome associated with this assignment is:
- Examine the ethical considerations and dilemmas of a diverse and interconnected world.
