Q Objective Be able to articulate and apply ethical theories to real-life situations. Description After learning the basics of Kantian, Utilitarian, and Virtue Theory approaches to ethics, we will apply each ethical theory. Watch The Office Season 1 Episode 4 ‘The Alliance.’ It is on Netflix. If you do not have Netflix, you can sign up for a free trial, or watch a few key clips here ( The Office - The Alliance (Episode Highlight 1)Links to an external site.) and here (The Office - The Alliance (Episode Highlight 2)Links to an external site. . This show contains several immoral (and moral) actions. You will 1) outline two of these three ethical theories, stating how you would determine whether an action is moral/immoral according to that ethical theory, 2) outline three actions from the video and state whether they would be moral or immoral according to each of these ethical theories, and 3) justify why each ethical theory would find that action moral or immoral. Your paper should be organized as follows: 1. A short paragraph outlining ethical theory 1. 2. A short paragraph outlining ethical theory 2. 3. First Action 1. A very short description of the first action you will analyze. (1-2 sentences) 2. Would ethical theory 1 say this is moral, immoral, or neutral? Why? (4-5 sentences) 3. Would ethical theory 2 say this is moral, immoral, or neutral? Why? 4-5 sentences) 4. Second Action 1. A very short description of the first action you will analyze. (1-2 sentences) 2. Would ethical theory 1 say this is moral, immoral, or neutral? Why? (4-5 sentences) 3. Would ethical theory 2 say this is moral, immoral, or neutral? Why? 4-5 sentences) 5. Third Action 1. A very short description of the first action you will analyze. (1-2 sentences) 2. Would ethical theory 1 say this is moral, immoral, or neutral? Why? (4-5 sentences) 3. Would ethical theory 2 say this is moral, immoral, or neutral? Why? 4-5 sentences) Due Date • By 11:59 p.m., Sunday, CT. ________________________________________ Unit 1: Overview | Lecture | Discussion | Ethical Application Assignment Rubric Ethical Application

Ethical theory is very inaccurate or missing. 30 pts This criterion is linked to a Learning OutcomeEthical Theory 1 Applied to Case 1 20 pts A Application of the theory is plausible and the student ties the justification of the each action’s being moral/immoral into the explication of that theory. 17 pts B Application of the theory is plausible, but student’s justification of the action’s being moral/immoral is not fully articulated or somewhat inaccurately applied. 15 pts C Application is somewhat plausible, but little justification is given to back up why those ethical theories would judge each action moral/immoral or the justification is an inaccurate application of the theory. 13 pts D Application is not plausible, and little justification is given to back up why those ethical theories would judge each action moral/immoral or the justification is an inaccurate application of the theory. 0 pts F Application is not plausible and little/no justification is offered. 20 pts This
