Much of the focus this semester has been on professional ethics in organizations, though it has been acknowledged that your own personal ethical paradigm strongly influences your workplace choices. At the periphery, the social responsibility aspect of ethics has been hinted at; that is, to what degree are you obligated to others (regardless of who they are or where they live) to act in an ethical manner? Paying taxes, voting, obeying stop signs, pulling your cars to the side of the road when an emergency vehicle passes—these are all demonstrations of a personal commitment to social responsibility and ethical behavior. Focus your discussion on the following: To what degree should organizations (non-profit and for-profit) bear social responsibility? They provide jobs, pay taxes, and provide services and goods— but how much profit is enough? At what point should they be societally obligated to give back, or to give back more than they currently do? At what point should they stop producing products that contribute little to society’s welfare, even if it means fewer profits? If organizations are people, too (as stated by Mitt Romney in the 2012 presidential election [Huffington Post, 2011]), can they be trusted to do the right thing? .

Ethical Contributions to Political Campaigns
A question that comes up frequently in political discussions is whether organizations like
corporations have too much influence over the political landscape today. Corporations have
many resources through which to effect political change, including lobbyists, quid pro quo back
door arrangements and campaign contributions. Because these funds can have a large influence
on who wins elections and the legislation that politicians support, it is important for an educated
citizenry to be aware of these contributions, and to consider their ethical implications. I will
argue that from the utilitarian perspective, indirect contributions to political campaigns by
organizations like corporations and unions can be ethical and should be allowed so long as there
are sufficient regulations in place to prevent undue harm that might result from giving large
organizations too much influence over the political process. I will contrast this view with that of
ethical egoism, which would argue that such contributions are ethical inasmuch as they allow
corporations to pursue their own long term interests.
According to the Federal Elections Commission (2004), "The Federal Election Campaign
Act (the Act) places monetary limits on contributions to support candidates for federal office and
prohibits contributions from certain sources." However, corporations are allowed to create
separate bank accounts and then make donations from these accounts to political campaigns as
long as they are not connected directly to the operation of the business. Regarding this type of
donation, the FEC (2004) stated that, "Contributions may…be made from separate segregated
funds (also called political action committees or PACs) established by corporations, labor
organizations, national banks, and incorporated membership organizations.” In other words,
corporations can set up PACs that in turn give large amounts of money to support candidates.
Because these funds can have a large influence on who wins elections and the legislation that

How will you choose to contribute to the public good over not contri.pdf
How will you choose to contribute to the public good over not contributing, and what factors
must be considered.
Solution
Public goods are goods that everyone (contributors and non-contributors alike) can enjoy, once
they are provided.
Casual observations in economic system highlights that sometimes people choose to contribute
to the public good over not contributing, even when we recognize the pull to free ride on the
contributions of others. This contribution can be in the following forms: effort in work teams,
provision of tangible or intangible public goods, the use of natural resources (the tragedy of the
commons), contributions to charities, tax honesty, buyer-seller relationships, employer-employee
relationships.
The explanatory factors which motivates people to contribute may be efficient coercion,
selective incentives, institutional structure, government trustworthiness, social norms, social
capital, ethical reciprocity, and dispositions.

Managing and Prioritizing Stakeholders
Organizational Issues
All organizations are faced with challenges or issues.
An issue is any event, trend, controversy, or public policy development that might affect the corporation.
An issue can also be understood as a gap between stakeholder expectations and the actual performance of a business.
Some important contemporary issues: domestic partner benefits, environmental performance, genetically modified food, affirmative action….the list can go on and on.
Stakeholders
Stakeholder theory argues that organizations need to identify and resolve issues in light of all their various stakeholders.
Stakeholder: Any group that has a vested interest in the operations of the firm
Include: employees, suppliers, stockholders, customers, the government, local communities, and society as a whole
Why Partner with Stakeholders?

Passage to Answer the Question
What Is Ethics?
Ethics
is simply the principles of right and wrong and the morality of the choices involved.
Now, it's also important to define what ethics is
not
. Ethics is not emotions or religion. It's not science or norms of a society, necessarily. It's also not simply following the law, because it's perfectly acceptable to follow the law yet be an unethical person.
term to know Ethics The principles of right and wrong and of the morality of the choices
1a. Business Ethics
Business ethics
is closely tied to what ethics is. It's the principles of right and wrong of the morality of the choices made in the
business
world. Essentially, what we're doing is taking the principles or the definition of ethics and applying it to business.
hint Whether you're looking at business ethics or other types of ethics, ethical people will always follow the same ethical principles
all the time
, not just when it suits them.
term to know Business Ethics The principles of right and wrong and of the morality of the choices made in the business world
1b. Managerial Ethics
Managerial ethics
is simply ethics again. It is the principles of right and wrong and of the morality of the choices made in the context of
management
.
Managerial decisions impact employee behavior. How you hire or fire, the wages that you pay, or the working conditions at your business are all ethical decisions, and they can greatly impact employee attitudes and productivity.
Managerial ethics decisions can also impact behavior toward an organization. Do you have conflicts of interest or allow them? A
conflict of interest
is simply a circumstance in which the judgment of an individual or group may be impaired because of a difference in primary or secondary interest.
Is customer information kept confidential?
Confidentiality
is simply keeping private trusted data out of the hands of the public and other people who don't need to see it.
think about it We hand our personal information, like credit card numbers, to a lot of different people online when we are shopping. What do you think it would do for a business if we suddenly found out that our information wasn't as confidential as we thought it was? That would have a big impact on that particular business.
Collusion
is an attempt by business to conspire to the detriment of customers, businesses, or the general public.
Lastly, managerial ethics decisions can also impact behavior toward economic agent.
My country UAE No reflection UAE relies heavily on the busin.docx
My country UAE No reflection
UAE relies heavily on the business of oil and tourism; they are providing 5.8 percent of the oil to other countries in the world. Saudi Arabia is the biggest provider and seller of oil in the world. UAE is earning money by transportation and tourism, the pandemic has a drastic effect on the economy already and the transportation is ban as there are many cases in UAE, the country earned 19.5 $ billion in 2019 by air transportation and it is around 5% percent of GDP last year. It is expected that the UAE GDP will reduce to 2.5 % this year. It is noted that the Dubai Financial Market (DFM) index is reduced to 2.36 percent (40.79 points) to 1,682.08, while the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX) dropped 2.18 percent to 3,676.46 points. "The government is making plans to announce financial support and the firms have a chance to receive additional debts.
The import and export figures of Gold are very important for UAE because UAE is the major country to import the unwrought gold and they export it in semi-worked and jewelry form that is 25 percent of their total export. The import and export can affect the economy as there is no trade going on in the world, India is on top to purchase the Gold from UAE. If the Gold prices push higher and the rupee falls the major threat is that Indian migrant workers would stop investing in the business. They are many in numbers and if they would send their money to home instead of investing it will reduce the import and export.
The Oil prices are dropping and the import and export reduction can result in dropping the currency value of UAE, they are earning money by tourism and air transport the pandemic already reduces the activities so there are many chances that the currency of UAE would badly fall if they would not control the pandemic on time. Tourism and Air transport is a total of 11 % of the total GDP of the UAE, it can drastically fall. The companies and banking sector are already affected so there are many chances the currency may lose its value. UAE have to reduce their tourism and air transport prices to overcome such issues in time.
Measures
UAE has to take serious steps to overcome such issues, the biggest issue can be unemployment because of a reduction in trade and tourism. The UAE government should focus on making plans to help needy people and employers who lost their jobs, the countries like the USA and Denmark are creating a trillion dollars budget for the people who lost their jobs. UAE has the most job holders are from India and Pakistan if they delay the budget plan the companies can be turned off eventually.
To overcome the pandemic and economic issues, they must focus on giving people relief so they can again in UAE for its prosperity. The banking sector must give the companies relief packages for loan repayment and they must give them additional packages to employers and companies to overcome financial issues. Top companies in the UAE must receive additio.

Assignment Overview
In the assignment this week, you will write a paper (7–10 pages), including a literature review, that examines ethical behavior, diversity, and civil discourse in the context of your particular focus and specialization.
What You Need to Know
Ethical Reasoning
Morris (2016) tells us:
In fall 2016, more than twenty million students enrolled across more than four million colleges and universities in the U.S. One in four students were members of a minority group, and approximately one million were international students. These students interacted with approximately four million administrators and faculty and staff members in a diversity of settings. Most of these students will easily transition into a life of academics and social interactions. For others, insults, aggressions, and lack of inclusion are a reality; and these experiences will shape their interactions and perceptions . . . on the challenges facing the nation and world and considering the role that post-secondary education plays in improving civil discourse nationally and creating safe spaces for dialogue and personal growth. (p. 361)
Morris (2016) goes on to argue:
First, [we must] identify resources to support conversations around civil discourse, social justice, and inclusion. Could we individually and collectively in every department, college, and administrative unit resolve to make a difference—to role-model and ask our students to be kind, show compassion, be inclusive and fair, and extend a hand of friendship? Maybe our academic words, like social justice, just do not resonate. Perhaps people forget that words have power and can cause long-lasting pain or can provide encouragement. While we may study and advocate for equity, perhaps we should say that this campus and my class will discuss challenging topics; but we will be characterized by the following values: to listen, to reflect, to show compassion, to think critically, and to care about this community of learners. I know: it sounds like Robert Fulghum’s
All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten
(1988). However, sometimes simple guidelines work best. (p. 361)
Use your
Critical Thinking
text to quickly review the following:
Chapter 14, "Develop As an Ethical Reasoner," pages 345–365.
If you did not complete the
Blooming Park: Ethics, Diversity, and Personnel Selection
simulation last week, complete it now to begin work on the interviews relevant to your organization: P–12 education, higher education, business or corporate, or military. This activity will give you the opportunity to grapple with the ethical questions that frequently arise in professional contexts, which will be the focus of your assignment this week.
Diversity and Multiculturalism
Diversity in all organization settings can take many forms. We may consider differences across many criteria, including the following:
Ethnicity.
Ethnic identity.
Gend.

Ethical Contributions to Political Campaigns
A question that comes up frequently in political discussions is whether organizations
like corporations have too much influence over the political landscape today. Corporations
have many resources through which to effect political change, including lobbyists, quid pro
quo back door arrangements and campaign contributions. Because these funds can have a
large influence on who wins elections and the legislation that politicians support, it is
important for an educated citizenry to be aware of these contributions, and to consider their
ethical implications. I will argue that from the utilitarian perspective, indirect contributions to
political campaigns by organizations like corporations and unions can be ethical and should
be allowed so long as there are sufficient regulations in place to prevent undue harm that
might result from giving large organizations too much influence over the political process. I
will contrast this view with that of ethical egoism, which would argue that such contributions

According to the Federal Elections Commission (2004), “The Federal Election Campaign

and prohibits contributions from certain sources.” However, corporations are allowed to create
separate bank accounts and then make donations from these accounts to political campaigns as
long as they are not connected directly to the operation of the business. The Final Paper will

. Ethics is not emotions or religion. It's not science or norms of a society, necessarily. It's also not simply following the law, because it's perfectly acceptable to follow the law yet be an unethical person.
term to know Ethics The principles of right and wrong and of the morality of the choices
1a. Business Ethics
Business ethics
is closely tied to what ethics is. It's the principles of right and wrong of the morality of the choices made in the
business
world. Essentially, what we're doing is taking the principles or the definition of ethics and applying it to business.
hint Whether you're looking at business ethics or other types of ethics, ethical people will always follow the same ethical principles
all the time
, not just when it suits them.

1b. Managerial Ethics
Managerial ethics
is simply ethics again. It is the principles of right and wrong and of the morality of the choices made in the context of
management
.
Managerial decisions impact employee behavior. How you hire or fire, the wages that you pay, or the working conditions at your business are all ethical decisions, and they can greatly impact employee attitudes and productivity.
Managerial ethics decisions can also impact behavior toward an organization. Do you have conflicts of interest or allow them? A
conflict of interest
is simply a circumstance in which the judgment of an individual or group may be impaired because of a difference in primary or secondary interest.
Is customer information kept confidential?
Confidentiality
is simply keeping private trusted data out of the hands of the public and other people who don't need to see it.
think about it We hand our personal information, like credit card numbers, to a lot of different people online when we are shopping. What do you think it would do for a business if we suddenly found out that our information wasn't as confidential as we thought it was? That would have a big impact on that particular business.
Collusion
is an attempt by business to conspire to the detriment of customers, businesses, or the general public.
Lastly, managerial ethics decisions can also impact behavior toward economic agent.

My country UAE No reflection
UAE relies heavily on the business of oil and tourism; they are providing 5.8 percent of the oil to other countries in the world. Saudi Arabia is the biggest provider and seller of oil in the world. UAE is earning money by transportation and tourism, the pandemic has a drastic effect on the economy already and the transportation is ban as there are many cases in UAE, the country earned 19.5 $ billion in 2019 by air transportation and it is around 5% percent of GDP last year. It is expected that the UAE GDP will reduce to 2.5 % this year. It is noted that the Dubai Financial Market (DFM) index is reduced to 2.36 percent (40.79 points) to 1,682.08, while the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX) dropped 2.18 percent to 3,676.46 points. "The government is making plans to announce financial support and the firms have a chance to receive additional debts.
The import and export figures of Gold are very important for UAE because UAE is the major country to import the unwrought gold and they export it in semi-worked and jewelry form that is 25 percent of their total export. The import and export can affect the economy as there is no trade going on in the world, India is on top to purchase the Gold from UAE. If the Gold prices push higher and the rupee falls the major threat is that Indian migrant workers would stop investing in the business. They are many in numbers and if they would send their money to home instead of investing it will reduce the import and export.
The Oil prices are dropping and the import and export reduction can result in dropping the currency value of UAE, they are earning money by tourism and air transport the pandemic already reduces the activities so there are many chances that the currency of UAE would badly fall if they would not control the pandemic on time. Tourism and Air transport is a total of 11 % of the total GDP of the UAE, it can drastically fall. The companies and banking sector are already affected so there are many chances the currency may lose its value. UAE have to reduce their tourism and air transport prices to overcome such issues in time.
Measures
UAE has to take serious steps to overcome such issues, the biggest issue can be unemployment because of a reduction in trade and tourism. The UAE government should focus on making plans to help needy people and employers who lost their jobs, the countries like the USA and Denmark are creating a trillion dollars budget for the people who lost their jobs. UAE has the most job holders are from India and Pakistan if they delay the budget plan the companies can be turned off eventually.
To overcome the pandemic and economic issues, they must focus on giving people relief so they can again in UAE for its prosperity. The banking sector must give the companies relief packages for loan repayment and they must give them additional packages to employers and companies to overcome financial issues. Top companies in the UAE must receive additio.

Assignment Overview
In the assignment this week, you will write a paper (7–10 pages), including a literature review, that examines ethical behavior, diversity, and civil discourse in the context of your particular focus and specialization.
What You Need to Know
Ethical Reasoning
Morris (2016) tells us:
In fall 2016, more than twenty million students enrolled across more than four million colleges and universities in the U.S. One in four students were members of a minority group, and approximately one million were international students. These students interacted with approximately four million administrators and faculty and staff members in a diversity of settings. Most of these students will easily transition into a life of academics and social interactions. For others, insults, aggressions, and lack of inclusion are a reality; and these experiences will shape their interactions and perceptions . . . on the challenges facing the nation and world and considering the role that post-secondary education plays in improving civil discourse nationally and creating safe spaces for dialogue and personal growth. (p. 361)
Morris (2016) goes on to argue:
First, [we must] identify resources to support conversations around civil discourse, social justice, and inclusion. Could we individually and collectively in every department, college, and administrative unit resolve to make a difference—to role-model and ask our students to be kind, show compassion, be inclusive and fair, and extend a hand of friendship? Maybe our academic words, like social justice, just do not resonate. Perhaps people forget that words have power and can cause long-lasting pain or can provide encouragement. While we may study and advocate for equity, perhaps we should say that this campus and my class will discuss challenging topics; but we will be characterized by the following values: to listen, to reflect, to show compassion, to think critically, and to care about this community of learners. I know: it sounds like Robert Fulghum’s
All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten
(1988). However, sometimes simple guidelines work best. (p. 361)

My name is Rachael Bamgboye. I am from African - Nigeria to be p.docx
My name is Rachael Bamgboye. I am from African - Nigeria to be precise. I am a wife and a mother of three beautiful children. I just completed my associate degree at Community College of Baltimore County. I am transferring to Stratford University in order to pursue my goal of becoming a registered nurse and will be transferring into Nursing by next term.
I believe I am a responsible and hard-working student who gets things done as at when due. I am an introvert but admire those that are extrovert, therefore, I am not very sociable. I love meeting new interesting individuals. People around me say I am easy going, loving and caring which is one of the reasons I want to pursue a degree in Nursing. I love caring for people and showing them love. I currently work as a care giver because I am passionate about caring for people.
Ethics is a principle that governs a person or people’s behavior. The definition of ethics may differ from person to person. For example, some people believe telling lies is good if it is safe to do so while some believe no matter how safe or severe a lie is, it is not good and is a sin. To my knowledge, I believe you address people the way you want to be addressed and never to look down on people, irrespective of their appearances or statuses.
My personal ethics are dignity, respect, loyalty, care and openness. I put all these values into consideration when making decisions. My personal experience with ethic was when I made an important decision as the leader of the ushering department in my church. Making this decision was not easy but I was careful and compassionate because I did not want to hurt anyone or make anyone feel bad. However, at the same time, I did not want to be biased. I respected and appreciated everyone’s views, and I tried to pass my message in a very polite way just like the way I would like to be approached
I am looking forward towards having a great term. Wishing everyone best of luck.

My name is Hassan Almahdi. I was born and raised in a city in Saudi .docx
My name is Hassan Almahdi. I was born and raised in a city in Saudi Arabia called Safwa. My father was the first person who motivated me to start a degree in engineering because he worked with Aramco Oil Company as an operator in their refineries. After finishing high school. I went to study Instrumentation and control engineering technology at Jubail industrial college. After I graduated and received my associate diploma, I Sought to start a Co-op in the Farabi petrochemical company, where I worked as an instrumentation technician in preventive maintenance. I spent four months in the company, and I got familiar with the work environment and the impact of the pollution that the company produced. Therefore, I decided to gain more knowledge by learning several methods, that might help the environment and reduce pollution. Therefore, I went to Gorge Brown College in Toronto, Canada to improve my oral English, while I was there I got introduced to a Volunteering Program where I became a volunteer Captin for the college I Was in. Also, I got certified to volunteer by Toronto city Hall where events like Nuit Blanche, and Toronto Open Doors...etc which have happened in the time I was there. After spending six months in Canada, I moved to St. Mary's University in San Antonio Texas. where I to started my Bachelor of Science in Electrical engineering. I got familiar with alternative energy resources. Also, how the science of engineering could replace the Gas and Oil industries. where gas and oil are the main sources of environmental air pollutions. Moreover, I learned about the evolution of Electric Vehicles and the replacement of gas engined cars. Where some scientists predict fully transition by 2030. The two years that I spent at St. Mary University before I transfer to the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, have shaped my character because of the number of leadership programs that I have attended. At UT of Chattanooga, I decided to choose the focus on the power system, where my studies focused more on subsystems and protective relaying. Even though, my focus was on the power system but, I took some classes in control and communication to expand my knowledge. After and before I graduate, I applied to too many graduate programs for masters and Ph.D.'s in different universities. But my main plan was to get accepted into the University of Michigan at Dearborn because of the campus diversity and it is ranked number 31 in Regional Universities Midwest 2021. I plan to start focusing my research on embedded systems or electric vehicles or control systems.

Case Study Scenario
Marie, a 67-year-old grandmother, is fostering her 14-year-old granddaughter, Audrey. Marie wants to help Audrey and is even thinking about adopting her.
Marie has just learned that Audrey witnessed her father’s death from a heroin overdose. She has seen her mother overdose several times.
Because of her parents’ addiction, Audrey and her mother were homeless and were found living under a bridge.
Audrey’s mother, Elaine, demanded that Audrey panhandle for money, which she used to buy more drugs.
Elaine is trying to kick her habit and is accepted in a residential facility for long-term addiction treatment, instead of a short-term detox center, in the hopes that she can get Audrey back.
Audrey also dug through dumpsters to find enough food for herself and her mother. Despite being destitute, Audrey is terrified to leave her mother, for fear she will die as her father did.
After Elaine’s last overdose, Audrey was removed from her mother’s care and placed with her grandmother, who is estranged from Elaine.
Audrey is acutely malnourished and thin; while she denies using drugs, there are some apparent tracks on her arms.
Since moving in with Marie, she has been hoarding food and wants to sleep on the floor instead of the bed. There is also evidence that Audrey has been cutting herself.
Case Questions
to answer
based upon your role:
Explain how you will prepare Marie to care for Audrey as a foster parent.
What should Marie know about the impact of Audrey’s experiences?
What services or resources will Audrey need?
Would you advise Marie against adopting Audrey, given that Elaine wants to get clean?

If the volume now presented to the public were a mere work
of ART, the history of its misfortune might be written in
two very simple words—TOO LATE. The nature and char-
acter of slavery have been subjects of an almost endless vari-
ety of artistic representation; and after the brilliant achieve-
ments in that field, and while those achievements are yet
fresh in the memory of the million, he who would add an-

excellence, or apologize for something worse than rashness.
The reader is, therefore, assured, with all due promptitude,
that his attention is not invited to a work of ART, but to a

I invite you to consider the following phases as you ponder and articulate your approach.
Secure your own Moral Clarity :
If you sense there is the potential of a problem of violation ethical standards at work or your life at large refuse to ignore it. Investigate and determine the facts of the case.
Always uphold paramount the standard that you became an engineer because you are dedicated securing the health safety and welfare of the public and the environment.
You are loyal to ethical practices of your firm institution as well as your client.
Know the Facts ensure that the information you are dealing with facts not opinions or distortions by:
Get hard documented facts, cross check the information.
Establish the competence and integrity of the source of the information
3. Consider options
a. Investigating the diversity of potential actions you may take. Evaluate and discuss

My hometown — Port Clinton, Ohio, population 6,050 — was in the 19.docx
My hometown — Port Clinton, Ohio, population 6,050 — was in the 1950s a passable embodiment of the American dream, a place that offered decent opportunity for the children of bankers and factory workers alike.
But a half-century later, wealthy kids park BMW convertibles in the Port Clinton High School lot next to decrepit “junkers” in which homeless classmates live. The American dream has morphed into a split-screen American nightmare. And the story of this small town, and the divergent destinies of its children, turns out to be sadly representative of America.
Growing up, almost all my classmates lived with two parents in homes their parents owned and in neighborhoods where everyone knew everyone else’s first name. Some dads worked in the local auto-part factories or gypsum mines, while others, like my dad, were small businessmen. In that era of strong unions and full employment, few families experienced joblessness or serious economic insecurity. Very few P.C.H.S. students came from wealthy backgrounds, and those few made every effort to hide that fact.
Half a century later, my classmates, now mostly retired, have experienced astonishing upward mobility. Nearly three-quarters of them surpassed their parents in education and in that way advanced economically as well. One-third of my classmates came from homes with parents who had not completed high school and, of that group, nearly half went to college.
Low costs at public and private colleges across Ohio were supplemented by locally raised scholarships — from the Rotary Club, the United Automobile Workers, the Junior Women’s Club and the like. Although the only two black students in my class encountered racial prejudice in town and none of their parents had finished grade school, both reached graduate school. Neither for them nor for our white classmates was family background the barrier to upward mobility that it would become in the next century.

Our (white) star quarterback, whom I will call J, grew up on the poor side of town. His dad, who had an eighth-grade education, worked two jobs to keep the family afloat — on the line at Port Clinton Manufacturing from 7 to 3, then at the canning factory from 3:30 to 11. Despite his 70-plus-hour workweek, J’s dad made it to J’s games. Unable to afford a car, J’s family hitched rides with neighbors to church every week and ate a lot of hash. Despite their modest background, J’s parents urged him to aim for college, and he chose the college-prep track at P.C.H.S., finishing in the top quarter of our class. His minister pointed him toward a downstate Lutheran institution and made a phone call to help find him financial aid. J graduated debt-free and continued on to seminary and a successful career as a Lutheran minister, coaching high school football on the side.

Systems Thinking and Problems of Practice
Evidence-Based Practice
One of the design concepts attributed to successful EdD programs is the scholarly practitioner, which The Carnegie Project on the Education Doctorate (n.d.) defines as practitioners who:
Blend practical wisdom with professional skills and knowledge to name, frame, and solve problems of practice. They use practical research and applied theories as tools for change because they understand the importance of equity and social justice. They disseminate their work in multiple ways, and they have an obligation to resolve problems of practice by collaborating with key stakeholders, including the university, the educational institution, the community, and individuals. (Design-Concepts Upon Which to Build Programs section)As you move toward the final weeks of our course, a high priority for all who lead learning is the application of systems thinking as you identify a problem of practice relevant to your organization.
As noted by Dirkx (2006):
The demand for evidence-based research (EBR) in education has evoked considerable debate regarding the nature of knowledge practitioners hold, how they come to know, and the sociopolitical contexts in which that knowledge is generated. Proponents of EBR such as Michael Feuer stress the need for research that validly identifies solutions to important problems of educational practice. Critics such as Elizabeth St. Pierre decry such approaches to research on practice as epistemologically inappropriate and oblivious to their political and moral implications. Both positions illuminate important dimensions of improving practice, but what works seems to get lost in the rhetoric. In this article, the author suggests that we in adult education take seriously the question of what works in practice by developing a knowledge base grounded in research methods and strategies that give voice to the particularities of practice contexts, what he refers to as the "insider perspective." (p. 273)
As you proceed through your EdD program, you will be required to identify a problem of practice, not simply an isolated problem in your organization, but instead a problem of practice that is clearly supported in the professional literature. Note that such problems were most likely identified as you developed the Literature Review assignment—all work of doctoral scholars must be firmly corroborated in the literature and research relevant to your organization’s problems of practice.
As you work to identify a problem of practice in your organization, please note the imperative to apply systems thinking. As noted by Senge, Cambron-McCabe, Lucas, Smith, Dutton, and Kleiner (2012):
Systems thinking is the ability to understand (and sometimes to predict) interactions and relationship in complex, dynamic systems—the kinds of systems we are surrounded by and embedded in. Some of the systems already under study in clas.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdf
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic Imperative
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Much of the focus this semester has been on professional ethics .docx
- 1. Much of the focus this semester has been on professional ethics in organizations, though it has been acknowledged that your own personal ethical paradigm strongly influences your workplace choices. At the periphery, the social responsibility aspect of ethics has been hinted at; that is, to what degree are you obligated to others (regardless of who they are or where they live) to act in an ethical manner? Paying taxes, voting, obeying stop signs, pulling your cars to the side of the road when an emergency vehicle passes—these are all demonstrations of a personal commitment to social responsibility and ethical behavior. Focus your discussion on the following: To what degree should organizations (non-profit and for-profit) bear social responsibility? They provide jobs, pay taxes, and provide services and goods— but how much profit is enough? At what point should they be societally obligated to give back, or to give back more than they currently do? At what point should they stop producing products that contribute little to society’s welfare, even if it means fewer profits? If organizations are people, too (as stated by Mitt Romney in
- 2. the 2012 presidential election [Huffington Post, 2011]), can they be trusted to do the right thing?
