If so, what was it? Why were you surprised? If not, why not? There was not anything specific that stood out to surprise me. Codes of Conduct are something I am use to following in conducting the way I behave. We have a Code of Conduct for the barbers and stylist’s at the salon I work for. I have also had to follow a Code of Conduct at the hair school I used to attend. Although some of the Codes of Conduct are a little different in one way or another. They are following the same guidelines of respect, honesty and integrity. These codes are put in place to ensure we know the right way from the wrong way, reminding us to never take the quicker way, cheat, lie, or violate others rights. They are only to ensure that everyone receives the same level of respect and provide a safe environment. What did you learn about the behaviors considered important for an ethical learner or student in the University of Phoenix learning community?

...disagree with their choices. By staying respectful to other classmates and to people in my personal life it creates a better environment around me and it will keep my mind in a more positive state, which in return I can keep my classmates in a better mind frame and if we all treat each other with respect in class and out of class it will make life a lot less stressful and it will make us happier because we are staying positive. This is why I was not surprised with what I read because I feel that this is something that should come natural to everyone but I know I am wrong and not all people view the same things the way I or others do everyone has their own option. What I learned about behaviors that are considered important for an ethical learner or student in the University of Phoenix learning community is basically respect and I will say it over and over again, respect is a big part of our behaviors that I and/or others will consider important in a day to day life. Disrespect can change the environment of any situation, especially in classroom. Disrespectful behavior can have the same effect on people as hostility would, it can affect your learning, studying, and even the outlook you have on yourself. You have to be ethically mature to know how to treat people with respect, even if you do not normally engage in what others are doing.

If so, what was it? Why were you surprised? If not, why not? I was not surprised while reading the Student Code of Conduct. As adults we know right from wrong, and should be held accountable for our own actions. I have been a part of organizations that have codes of conduct that varied from relaxed to very strict. One organization would allow casual clothing and none formal communication. The other required a uniform, short haircut and polished boots. Communication was to be professional at all times while in garrison. Codes of conduct are there to makes sure we understand what is acceptable and what is not tolerated. They are put into place so that everyone in the environment will feel safe. The codes are there to ensure that everyone is respected no matter what their race, ethnicity, culture, or religious beliefs are. • What did you learn about the behaviors considered important for an ethical learner or student in the University of Phoenix learning community?

I felt that everything that was covered in the code of conduct is more common sense than anything else. In your adult life, you abide by the same conduct in everyday society, and even the work place. If you came to work intoxicated, sexually harassed a fellow coworker, or stalked someone one, you would have the same consequences to your actions. I feel that the student code of academic integrity was more common sense also. I was taught at a very young age that cheating is wrong. In high school, if your teacher caught you plagiarizing a paper, you would receive a failing mark on the assignment and would have to talk to the dean.

...IDEA : 1 Ethical DecisionMaking Framework Guide & Worksheets 1 The IDEA: Ethical Decision-Making Framework builds upon the Toronto Central Community Care Access Centre Community Ethics Toolkit (2008), which was based on the work of Jonsen, Seigler, & Winslade (2002); the work of the Core Curriculum Working Group at the University of Toronto Joint Centre for Bioethics; and incorporates aspects of the accountability for reasonableness framework developed by Daniels and Sabin (2002) and adapted by Gibson, Martin, & Singer (2005). Introduction Ethics is about making “right” or “good” choices and the reasons that we give for our choices and actions. Ethics promotes reflective practice in the delivery of health care. Ethics addresses the question “What should we do and why?” Another way to describe ethics is as follows. It is about: • Deciding what we should do – what decisions are morally right or acceptable; • Explaining why we should do it – justifying our decision using language of values and principles; and • Describing how we should do it – outlining an appropriate process for enacting the decision. 2 Ethical issues arise every day in health care (See Appendix A). Everyone has a role to play in ensuring the ethical delivery of care, from bedside to boardroom. Trillium Health Centre is committed to providing quality compassionate care to the community it serves. Ethical principles and values are incorporated into the way that decisions are made and care is delivered...

If so, what was it? Why were you surprised? If not, why not? Nothing really surprised me as I feel that the UofP Student Code of Conduct is very essential to influence learning. As any other institution there will be guidelines that one must follow, these are not intended to anger anyone just simply aid in the educating process. If I were to think of these rules to be unfair, I would analyze each rule in question put myself in an administrators’ position and see how unorganize things would be without this particular rule. • What did you learn about the behaviors considered important for an ethical learner or student in the University of Phoenix learning community? Being an ethical learner is the best route to take, as students we can become overwhemled and the easy way out will seem like the best option.

...Unit 2 Ethics Ethical Words Worksheet Consequentialist Morality - the ability to produce practical moral judgements. At the very least, any moral theory needs to define the standpoint from which the goodness of the consequences are to be determined. NonConsequentialist Morality - judges the rightness or wrongness of an action based on properties intrinsic to the action, not on its consequences. Psychological egoism - the view that humans are always motivated by self-interest, even in what seem to be acts of altruism. It claims that, when people choose to help others, they do so ultimately because of the personal benefits that they themselves expect to obtain, directly or indirectly, from doing so. Ethical egoism - the normative ethical position that moral agents ought to do what is in their own self-interest. It differs from psychological egoism, which claims that people can only act in their self-interest. Care Ethics - our sense of right and wrong and our beliefs about rights we possess and duties we owe others. Utalitarianism - the doctrine that actions are right if they are useful or for the benefit of a majority. Act Utalitarianism - a utilitarian theory of ethics which states that a person'sact is morally right if and only if it produces at least as much happiness as any other act that the person could perform at that time. Rule Utalitarianism - a form of utilitarianism that says an action is right as it conforms to a rule that leads to the greatest...

ACCT 280 FINANCIAL PROJECT WORD BOOK Assignment1: Ethical Dilemma (10 points)[1] Before reading this assignment, review pages 8-9 in your text about evaluating ethical dilemmas (or search for ethical dilemmas in the online text). Remember that an ethical dilemma, by its nature, has at least two alternatives – maybe more. GAMESTOP’S Chief Accounting Officer is Robert Lloyd. He is responsible for overseeing the books and records of the company and preparing the company’s financial statements.

Everything is on track for the quarter. We’re wrapping up the final details for the earnings release next week. I’ll be getting together with David in tomorrow as a matter of fact to review everything.
