Ethics and Ethical Reasoning
Assignment:
1. After having read through descriptions of consequentialism (teleological theories) and deontology (nonconsequentialism), briefly [in about 1 short paragraph or so] explain which ethical theory you like better and why. Do you think that morality [right and wrong] is absolute [true independently of what individuals think] or relative [varies depending on individuals/groups]? Watch the video recommended ( Ethics: What Is Right? (Links to an external site.) to master the concept.

(Links to an external site.) it will take you to the NSC Remote Access Login type in your Last name and your SID and you should be able to access the movie.
