Teaching staff: Lecturers: Prof. Natalie Bolzan Prof. Moira Carmody Dr Michael Houlbrook Dr Michael Kennedy Tutors: Various Contact and consultation: Dr Mick Houlbrook Email: m.houlbrook@uws.edu.au Bankstown campus Room 1.1.75 Telephone: 02 9772 6348 Consultation: Mondays 10am – 2pm and Wednesdays 10am – 12pm 1.2 What to do if you need help? Step 1: Read this Learning Guide (including attachments, especially the Social Science Student Resources Step 2: Check the unit vUWS site for the information you need. Step 3: Direct your enquiry to ssap@uws.edu.au Note: We expect you to have searched for answers to your administrative questions in the unit Learning Guide and its attachments, before contacting any member of staff. Staff may not respond to emails, questions, or requests for help where answers are readily obtainable in the Learning Guide or attachments, or through links provided to other sources of information. For advice regarding the subject matter of the unit, consult your tutor during class time, or cons
ul
t with the Unit Coordinator according to the Consultation details in the previous section. Students are expected to be adequately prepared when they seek advice from teaching staff, having done sufficient background work themselves, and with clear questions rather than vague requests about what to do. Be aware of your rights and responsibilities: You must be aware of the key UWS policies and information affecting students, found at this link: http://www.uws.edu.au/learning_teaching/learning_and_teaching/office_of_the_pro-vicechancellor/key_policies_and_information_affecting_students First year students: First year students experiencing difficulties, or needing assistance or support to adjust to University life, should consult with the first year advisor.Learning Guide 2013-Autumn 101555-Ethics in the Social Sciences Page 4 of 11 Make sure you are an informed adult-learner: If you are a new student coming straight from school, please understand that being a university student is very different to being a school student. Your first day at University is the start of your professional career where you take responsibility for yourself as a professional adult learner. To give yourself the best chance of having a satisfying University experience, and to maximise your prospects for success, you need to take control of your own learning. This means ensuring you are as informed as possible at all times and not reliant on asking for help from others – except, of course, when you have exhausted all other options. It is very important, therefore – and this applies to all students – that in the first week of semester you set sufficient time aside to read this Learning Guide and all its attachments fully and carefully. You need to ensure you are completely familiar with the requirements of the unit and all the support services and sources of information available to you. 2.0 UNIT CONTENT 2.1 Handbook summary This unit introduces students to the nature of western ethics and moral discourses, to ethical methodology and to the possibilities and limits of ethical discourse and practice. It covers the history of the formalisation of ethics as well as its current philosophical and sociological dimensions. It also deals with various case studies of ethical issues and moral debates students may encounter in their everyday day and professional lives. Students will be invited to reflect on moral discourse(s) and on the use of ethics for social justice and fairness. 2.2 Unit content • History of the formalisation of ethics • Philosophical dimensions of ethics • Sociological dimensions of ethics • Ethics and citizenship • Ethics and Social Action • Critical study of current professional ethical codes • Study of case studies of decision making and action 2.3 Mode of delivery The unit is delivered by means of weekly 1-hour lectures and 1-hour tutorials. 2.4 Attendance requirements and workload Students are expected to attend all lectures and tutorials and to participate actively in all class activities. Failure to do so may seriously undermine a student’s ability to complete the unit satisfactorily. Attendance records may be consulted in the assessment of any requests for extensions or Special Consideration. You should advise the Unit Coordinator or your tutor if you are unable to attend a tutorial due to illness or misadventure. This unit is worth 10 credit points, indicating that success in the unit requires at least 10 hours work per week. Three hours will be lecture/tutorial time and the remaining 7 hours should be devoted to reading and study, assessment preparation, and revision. In this unit you will need to devote much of this time to reading the textbook and reading materials. 2.5 Changes to unit in response to student feedback Student feedback on quizzes has led to a modified quiz format in the unit. 3.0 UNIT LEARNING OUTCOMES In this unit, Graduate Attributes are achieved through the following Learning Outcomes attained by students: On completion of this unit, students will be able to: 1.

You are required to choose one of the several case studies listed on vUWS. You will analyse this case study from two ethical frameworks studied this semester and discuss how each position offers a way of understanding the issue and of responding to it. N.B. Policing students are required to undertak the specific policing case study that applies to policing. In your introduction briefly identify which case study you are using. Introduce the two frameworks you are using to analyse the case study and briefly describe them. In the body of your paper you will be required to apply them to the case study. This means critically analysing how aspects of the case study might be understood from the two different theoretical frameworks you have chosen. Your conclusion should address the implications of these two positions for the case study, the people involved and the broader community. You must use at least 5 academic references, and may use references other than those listed in the learning guide. Wikipedia will not be considered a legitimate reference. Please be advised that websites are of inconsistent value and you need to be vigilant in your use of various websites. DO Write your assignment using headings that address the assessment criteria – this helps you to organise your thoughts and structure your assignment and makes it easier for us (the markers) to see what you have done. DO Use economy of expression – be succinct and concise – brief and clear.Learning Guide 2013-Autumn 101555-Ethics in the Social Sciences Page 10 of 11 DO Use Harvard referencing style (i.e. author-date).
