A Essay Part 2 (of 2): Analysing an Ethical Dilemma Due Date: Midnight of Friday 17 October 2014, Weight: 50% (50 marks) Description: Part 2 is a new piece of work that should not include material from Part 1. As before, it is a written analysis ( 7101ICT 4500 words) of a complex ethical problem similar to that which you might encounter in the IT industry.

This scenario is a continuation of the scenario used in Part 1. In the same way as in Part 1, use the Ethical Decision Model to analyse the situation and arrive at a rationally supported course of action. Your reasoning should be made clear (show how you arrived at the decision, don't just present the decision). You should make reference to the Normative Ethical Theories (as outlined in text) as part of your analysis. You are free to mention any other content from the text that you see fit to use. This assignment is the second part of a two part assignment. It follows on from the scenario presented in Part 1. The final 1000 words of this assignment should be a description of how your ethical standards and ability to solve ethical dilemmas has changed since you began the course. This is a free-format description of what you have learned, what capabilities you now have that you did not have before, how this is likely to help you in the future, plus any other points you see fit to mention. Criteria & Marking: As with Part 1, your result be be determined based on:

• How deep your analysis went using the EDM (there are subtle issues that anin-depth analysis will find),

• How valid your supporting arguments were,

• Other supporting material from text,

• How well you performed the final 1000 word task,

• How well it is all presented (clear, concise, grammatically correct, use of template), and

• No more than 10% duplicate text reading on TurnitIn (due to copying from the Case Study and other sources - the work MUST be your own). You have considerable freedom within the broad constraints listed above. The final 1000 word analysis section will be assessed for evidence that you have learned something significant from this course based on the requirements stated in the assessment task. Overall, take into account that there is no one right way of doing the assignment, there are only degrees of correctness. Individual students have much scope to present their case and their findings. Unlike programming where a solution is either correct or incorrect, there is inherent ambiguity in ethical analysis.
