ethics discussion due tonight at 11:30 pm

Aristotle seems to argue that happiness is only possible if you are a virtuous person. Aquinas, on the other hand, leaves happiness out of the universal human goods. Do you think happiness is connected to being a good person? If so, how? If not, why not?

Week 1 Discussion 1

Understanding Action Research

Part One:

According Eileen Ferrance (2000) in Themes in education: Action research, action research “involves people working to improve their skills, techniques, and strategies. Action research is not about learning why we do certain things, but rather how we can do things better. It is about how we can change our instruction to impact students” (p. 9). Considering this perspective as well as the information in Chapter 1 of Action Research: A Guide for the Teacher Researcher, what factors bring value to action research, differentiating it from traditional educational research? Include at least three factors that are beneficial or lend credibility.

Part Two: Ferrance (2000) adds, “One of the drawbacks of individual research is that it may not be shared with others unless the teacher chooses to present findings at a faculty meeting, make a formal presentation at a conference, or submit written material to a listserv, journal, or newsletter” (p. 9). Considering that your Final project will be an action research proposal presentation, how will this lead you to improve your practice and make changes to instruction to positively impact students?

Part Three: Visit the Ashford University Library. Locate a full-text article that addresses Part One, providing additional comparisons between action and traditional research, or find an article that discusses Part Two, sharing research findings. Share at least one point from your article that adds to what you learned from our assigned readings. Be sure to cite your article according to APA standards.

  Guided Response: Locate and respond to two classmates’ posts which contain differing perspectives on the value of action research or that which is different than your own. What new or different perspectives regarding action research do you now have as a result? Provide specific feedback regarding their ideas to improve their practice and how their concepts will impact students.

*It is expected for you to follow up by the last day of the week to provide a secondary response to any comments or questions your instructor may have provided. This is part of the grading criteria as a demonstration of critical thinking.

Early Action Research Ideas

Familiarize yourself with the nine steps that Mills (2014) presents in Chapter 3, pp. 69-70, in order to complete the first three steps of your Final Project, Action Research Plan. Follow the directions below as they differ from the steps on page 69. At this point, you are presenting early ideas that are not concrete, as you have not conducted a review of literature yet. Therefore, your responses should be in outline form only. (You will make these three steps more concrete and formal in structure in Week Three). For now, you will briefly explain the problem or situation.

1. Current Work Setting o Describe your current professional setting, if applicable, whether you are working in a school setting, other educational setting, or organization not related to education.

2. Potential Population Effected o Keeping the focus relatively small, describe whether the potential population of interest includes a group of students and what their grade or age level includes. If you currently work with adults in a non-educational setting, include who in your workplace is impacted. If you are currently unemployed, include who may benefit from a potential change or intervention (i.e. your child, a related child, an adult in the family, etc.). Avoid the use of specific names, rather describe the group or individuals who would be influenced or involved in the action research project.

3. Area of Focus o Identify your early idea of what the purpose of your study may be.

4. Explanation of Problem o Statement of problem or situation that led to this interest or why you want to pursue this topic, including trends in education or educational research.

5. Define Variables o Describe the population (age/grade, quantity of participants, students/or adults). Briefly explain why you have chosen them.

6. Research question(s) o What do you wonder? Consider your area of focus statement. What do you hope to answer?

Guided Response: Respond to at least two of your classmates, one with a different topic idea than your own. Ask a question that will encourage them to expand their thinking, consider another point or perspective, or explain more deeply what is appealing about the topic. Make a recommendation to help them narrow their focus or expand their scope.

*It is expected you follow-up by the last day of the week to provide a secondary response to any comments or questions your instructor may have provided. This is part of the grading criteria as a demonstration of critical thinking. Attention MATLT Students: To keep aligned with your program’s emphasis on technology, we strongly suggest that you choose a research area and/or problem involving teaching, learning, or training with technology. Examples may include technology use in the classroom, technology teacher training, technology tools used for evaluation or assessment, or other technology related areas applicable to your place of work.

 

EDU 671 Week 1 Assignment

Trends in Educational Action Research

Instructions: For this assignment, you will create a document that includes both the Early Action Research Plan and criteria for your area of focus. The plan you share is the same one posted in the Early Action Research Ideas discussion from this week. Please be sure to consider the feedback you received from peers and your instructor and make necessary changes before including this plan in your assignment submission. For the criteria part of the assignment, consider what you read in “Themes in Education: Action Research” and “Current Trends in Education.” What topics did you see and read about that lead you toward clarifying a general idea and establishing an area of focus for research? Please refer to the “Research in Action Checklist Three – One” (Mills, 2014, p. 44) to establish criteria for your area of focus. Note that writing in the first-person voice during the criteria section of this assignment is acceptable.

Content

The assignment needs to include the following areas of content.

• Plan – Area of Focus (1 point): In no more than two paragraphs, describe your early idea of what the purpose of your study may be.

  • Plan – Explanation of Problem (1 point): In no more than two paragraphs, explain a statement of the problem or situation that led to this interest or why you want to pursue this topic.

Ethics Final Essay

Ethics Final Essay

Throughout the semester we have focused on numerous ambiguities regarding Ethics. With Aristotle, we thought about the chance that is involved in making an ethical decision. With Rousseau, we thought about how difficult it is to come up with one’s own opinions. With Nietzsche, we were forced to ask whether the very idea of Ethics itself has a cruel or unethical nature to it. Even in those miraculous instances where someone actually makes a decision, i.e. Edward Snowden, there are no shortage of disagreements about the ethical value of said decision. Given all these misgivings and false starts, what purpose does learning and thinking about Ethics actually serve? How do we respond to someone who would see all these ambiguities as evidence that ethics should simply not be taught?

Possible Tangents: Has Ethics class made you more ethical? Can Ethics be taught? If we can teach it, how can it be taught? Who teaches Ethics? A professor? A priest? Is Ethics ever something that can be grasped like a piece of information? If Ethics can’t be taught, how do we learn how to better open ourselves up to the Other? Is that or isn’t that our responsibility?

Suggestions:

1) This question has the possibility of opening up to the space of confession. Remember, we discussed the ambiguity of confession, with Rousseau. So if you feel comfortable speaking about

yourself, please take into account the possibility of deception.

2) Make sure to include an example alongside your theory. You can ask yourself whether, after this class, you might now have a newfound orientation towards ethics when faced with a specific

scenario. Remember too, technology is rich with examples.

Requirements:

1) 4-5 double-spaced pages.

2) Use at least 3 quotations from the texts we have read, and use at least 2 different thinkers.

1.  Consider the idea that a person may be addicted to electronic media. For this writing assignment, try and look at their behavior from a different perspective. For this exercise, instead of electronic addiction, would you think any differently if they were doing similar things regarding movies? television? or a book series like Harry Potter? How would you approach this person? How would you know they have an obsession?                                       2.What are the effects, if any, of students in a classroom texting each other back and forth while in class? Why is this being done? Even when people stand in lines, they text the person standing right next to them? Does this make it easier to communicate? Does it make communication more difficult? Do you feel this is a healthy or unhealthy practice?
