Only humans can be moral agents by reflecting on their actions. 3) There are debates around whether morality is universal or relative to cultures. Relativism holds morality depends on cultures, while absolutism believes some principles are always right or wrong.

Ethics draws from various sources over time, including religion, philosophy, and cultural traditions to determine what constitutes fair and acceptable human relations.
Ethics and values 1
This document provides an introduction to ethics and values. It discusses what ethics is, the meaning of ethics, ethical considerations, morals, values, and why ethics should be studied. Specifically, it defines ethics as determining what is right and wrong based on a situation. It outlines five main ethical principles: respect for others, do no harm, benefit others, be just, and be faithful. It distinguishes between ethics as a social system of applying morals and morals as defining personal character. Values are defined as principles and guidelines that shape character. Ethics involves inquiry through normative, conceptual, and factual investigation. Ethics should be studied to help address moral dilemmas, vagueness, conflicts, and develop moral autonomy.
Intro to Ethical Decision Making: Ethics and Moral Values
This document discusses ethics and moral values. It defines ethics as principles that guide determining right and wrong, while morals refer to lessons about single principles. Ethics examines morals and reasons for moral standards through philosophy. There is no single approach to ethical decision making, as it involves considering culture, beliefs, standards, and examining reasons and consequences. Ethical judgments also require understanding different perspectives rather than simply asserting one's own values. The document provides steps for clarifying an ethical dilemma and critically evaluating options.
Ethical Frameworks Intro
This document introduces three main branches of normative ethics: virtue ethics, utilitarianism, and deontology. Virtue ethics focuses on one's character and virtues, utilitarianism evaluates actions based on their consequences and producing the greatest happiness for the greatest number of people, and deontology centers around duties and moral rules. The document provides examples to illustrate key differences in how each approach views and evaluates ethical decisions and dilemmas.

Moral AND ETHICS
Morals refer to rules that govern right and wrong actions for individuals or societies, though what is considered moral can vary between cultures. There are various moral philosophies and principles such as non-maleficence, beneficence, justice, and honesty. Ethics provide guiding principles for determining what is good or bad and respond to specific situations, governed by individual or professional norms rather than social customs. While morals may differ between groups, ethics aim to be more uniform and allow for freedom of thought when addressing right and wrong conduct.
Virtue theory
This document provides an overview of virtue ethics, including:
- The basics of virtue ethics as developed by Aristotle, focusing on developing good character traits rather than specific actions.
- Jesus' teachings on the Beatitudes as an example of virtues.
- Challenges to virtue ethics, such as it not providing practical moral guidance, issues with cultural relativism, and virtues potentially being used to justify immoral acts.
Pojman ethics 8e_ppt_ch13
The document discusses the fact-value problem in ethics. It covers perspectives from philosophers such as Hume, Moore, Ayer, and Hare. The fact-value problem concerns whether moral values can be derived from factual statements or if there is an inherent difference between facts and values. The document also discusses metaethics and attempts to address the fact-value problem through non-cognitivist theories like emotivism and prescriptivism, as well as potential naturalist perspectives.
Virtue ethics
Virtue ethics focuses not so much on principles or the consequences of action, nor even the action itself so much as on the agent, the person who performs the action, in the light of the circumstances and all of his or her other actions. The focus is on the person’s character, or alternatively, on those traits of character expressed in this and other actions, his or her virtues.
Aristotle’s virtue ethics The most famous virtue ethicist, and in many ways still the starting point for most virtue ethicists, is the great Greek philosopher Aristotle (384–322 BCE). In his Nicomachean Ethics (1954), Aristotle laid out a system of virtue ethics which still remains the starting point, if not the model, for most virtue ethicists. A virtue (areté which can also be translated as “excellence”) for Aristotle was the mean between the extremes.
ETHICS-2022.pptx
The document discusses several topics related to ethics and morality, including the importance of studying ethics, the role of culture and moral behavior, moral versus non-moral standards, the levels of moral dilemmas, and the development of moral character. Rules are important for regulating behavior and protecting rights, while morality involves making choices within one's cultural context. An individual's actions both shape and are shaped by their developing moral character.
Srength ethics
Normative ethics aims to discover the moral standards supported by the best reasons. There are four main approaches: teleological theory assesses acts based on their consequences; deontological theory evaluates acts based on adherence to duty; ethical egoism holds an act is good if it benefits oneself; and virtue ethics focuses on developing good character traits. Utilitarianism is a form of teleological theory that considers an act right if it maximizes overall happiness. Kantianism is a deontological theory that deems an act right only if motivated by duty.
Chapter 13
This chapter discusses moral realism and skepticism. It introduces the concepts of moral realism, which claims that moral facts exist independently of human thought, and moral skepticism, which denies the existence of objective moral values or facts. It outlines John Mackie's argument for moral skepticism, including his arguments from relativity, queerness, and projection. It also summarizes Gilbert Harman's defense of moral nihilism and the response that moral observation can be analogous to scientific observation. Finally, it notes that the chapter considers defenses of moral realism based on moral facts about happiness and suffering.
Ethical theories[1]
Ethics is the philosophical study of morality and seeks to understand concepts like good, evil, right, wrong and justice. There are differing views on the source and nature of morality. Objectivists believe morality is objective and stems from supernatural beings or natural laws, while subjectivists see it as subjective and based on human rationality. Major ethical theories discussed include utilitarianism, deontology, virtue ethics and ethical relativism. Different theories provide various approaches to determining what constitutes moral and ethical behavior.
Moral Theories
This document discusses different moral theories related to the trolley problem scenario. It describes the scenario where a runaway trolley is heading towards five people but can be diverted onto a side track with one person. It then explains different theories of value and obligation, including consequentialist theories like utilitarianism which say the right action produces the most good, and nonconsequentialist theories like Kant's categorical imperative which focus on the nature of the action itself rather than consequences. The document provides overview explanations of these and other theories like ethical egoism, natural law theory, and divine command theory.
Fourth chapter [code of ethics]
This document discusses codes of ethics and moral values. It explains that codes of ethics serve to protect the public interest, guide professionals, and inspire commitment to ethical standards. Codes help establish shared standards, support responsible conduct, and facilitate education and understanding. They also provide a basis for investigating unethical events. Codes contribute to a positive professional image and allow for self-regulation. However, codes also have limitations and can be subject to abuse if taken too seriously. The document compares the arguments of two philosophers, Michael Davis and Stephen Unger, regarding the role and purpose of professional codes of ethics. It also discusses how moral values, reasoning, and judgments vary across cultures and may change over time.
Pojman ethics 8e_ppt_ch02

While relativism acknowledges cultural diversity, it is criticized for undermining important values and for failing to allow for moral criticism and reform.
Chapter 1
This document provides an overview of ethics and ethical reasoning. It discusses three branches of ethical study: metaethics, normative ethics, and applied ethics.

It addresses relying on religion for ethics and argues ethics can be studied rationally to include people of all beliefs.
Pojman ethics 8e_ppt_ch03
The document discusses moral objectivism and different versions of this view. It examines Thomas Aquinas' view of natural law theory, which holds that objective moral principles can be discovered through human reason and nature. Aquinas was a moral absolutist who developed the doctrine of double effect. The document also discusses moderate objectivism and the idea of a universal core morality based on principles necessary for human flourishing. While moral principles may be objective, morality is also situational in how principles are applied.
Moral values and ethics.

Deontological theories hold that certain actions are right or wrong regardless of consequences, based on absolute duties and moral rules. The document also examines forms of utilitarianism as a teleological theory, and discusses strengths and weaknesses of calculating utility.
John Dewey Presentation
John Dewey was an American philosopher, psychologist, and educational reformer who is considered one of the founders of functional psychology and the father of pragmatism. He founded the Laboratory School at the University of Chicago to test his educational theories in practice. Dewey believed that education should be experiential and focus on hands-on, collaborative learning centered around students' interests to promote critical thinking. His theories emphasized learning through experience and problem-solving rather than rote memorization.
Experimentalism in Education
Experimentalism believes that things are constantly changing. It is based on the view that reality is what works right now and that goodness comes from group decisions. As a result, schools exist to discover and expand the society we live in. Students study social experiences and solve problems.
Idealism Realism Pragmatism
The document discusses three philosophies of education: idealism, realism, and pragmatism. Idealism views education as developing reasoning skills and focusing on "big ideas" through classic works and discussion. Realism emphasizes teaching objective facts and skills to prepare students for the real world. Pragmatism, developed by philosophers like William James and John Dewey, sees education as learning through experience rather than textbooks.
John Dewey and Education
John Dewey was an early 20th century educational reformer who advocated for a progressive approach focused on meeting students' needs and involving them in planning their education. He felt the traditional system was too authoritarian and did not adequately prepare students for participation in a democracy. Dewey believed learning should be interactive and build on students' interests and experiences rather than just transmitting facts. While progressive education gave students more freedom, Dewey argued it still needed structure to maximize learning. His ideas challenged the traditional system but some aspects remain today.
John Dewey
John Dewey was an American philosopher, psychologist, and educational reformer who lived from 1859-1952. He obtained his PhD in 1884 and later opened the Laboratory School in 1896, where he tested his progressive ideas about education. Dewey rejected a curriculum-centered view of education and instead proposed a student-centered approach where students interact with the curriculum to make their own knowledge. He believed the teacher's role is as a facilitator and that education should provide freedom and values to help students reach their full potential.

The document contrasts progressive education approaches like child-centered and experiential learning with traditional education models centered around textbooks and rote memorization.
Theories of ethics
The document discusses ethics and behavior in organizations, including key ethical issues like employee and employer relations as well as the public's generally negative perception of business ethics.

Introduction Ethics & Morals.pptx presentation on ethics of research
This document defines ethics and discusses several key concepts in ethical theory. It explains that ethics considers what makes acts and people good or bad, and how we should act. There are theoretical questions about concepts and practical questions about moral reasoning. Ethical issues often involve disagreement, and people may disagree fundamentally.

The document also outlines major moral theories and challenges to morality like egoism, relativism, and skepticism.
Chapter 2
Ethical relativism holds that there are no objective moral standards and that right and wrong are defined by cultural and individual perspectives. Relativists argue that moral diversity and uncertainty across cultures and situations show the lack of universal standards. However, critics argue that moral diversity does not necessarily mean an absence of shared principles, and uncertainty in deciding right from wrong does not imply its nonexistence. Relativism is also said to promote tolerance, but forcing acceptance of all practices risks discomfort and prevents questioning customs, including one's own.

Cultural Relatvism
Cultural relativism argues that (1) different cultures have different moral codes, (2) there is no universal moral truth, and (3) one cannot judge another culture's moral codes as better or worse. However, this view has limitations. If taken to the extreme, cultural relativism implies that harmful practices cannot be criticized as long as a culture allows them. Most argue some moral values like protecting life are universal. Cultural relativism is a useful reminder not to assume one's own culture is objectively best, but it does not preclude all judgments across cultures.

It covers several theorists and their perspectives, such as Siegfried Kracauer arguing that film is uniquely capable of mirroring reality, and Bazin viewing the camera's ability to capture reality as satisfying a human desire. The document also discusses figures like Deren who blended reality and fantasy, and Brakhage who aimed to liberate the eye from conventions. It questions if mechanical reproduction alone constitutes art, and examines how concepts like realism have evolved, especially with innovations like CGI.
Film Language
This document provides an overview of the development of film theory and criticism from the early 20th century onwards. It discusses key theorists and concepts such as Griffith inventing montage in the 1910s, Eisenstein's collision montage in the 1920s, Pudovkin's linkage montage, Bazin's rejection of montage in favor of mise-en-scene in the 1940s-50s, structuralism and semiotics in the 1960s-70s, and debates around narration, iconography, and the shot/reverse shot sequence. The document traces how understanding of film as a language was established and refined over this period.
Media Convergence
The document discusses Henry Jenkins' concept of "convergence culture" where content flows across multiple media platforms and audiences seek entertainment across different media. It defines convergence and discusses how audiences and media consumption are changing, with audiences becoming more participatory and intelligent through collective knowledge-sharing. New models of media ownership and synergies between industries are also enabling greater convergence.
Shrek And Post Modernity
The document discusses how the film Shrek utilizes various techniques of postmodernism such as self-referentiality, intertextuality, pastiche, and blurring reality and fantasy. It examines how Shrek challenges and plays with conventions of fairy tales and Disney films through its irreverent humor and unconventional heroes and villains.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
