Ethical Issues In High School

You are a Licensed Professional School Counselor working in a middle school in North Carolina and one of my former students Tierra has graduated and has come by my office to share her plans after graduation. While talking with her, she has informed me that she had been romantically involved with her high school counselor, Zack for most of her senior year in high school but that they had recently decided to just be friends. Tierra also stated they had not been involved sexually, and had not gone any further than kissing.

The National High School Ethics Bowl Is an amazing thing that Wayne Memorial students Participated in this year. The members studied twelve cases over the course of five months. Only able to attend one local bowl they had to study all cases and master them if they wished to proceed to the National Ethics Bowl located in North Carolina. David Kangas expressed "If you want to join the ethics bowl you must have an interest in ethical dilemmas and you must be able to think deeper into problems that are presented." You must be capable to understand both sides of a single case. Kelsie Wysong '16 states"Many questions are asked but they are typically based off how the competitor believes the situation should be handled." When the bowl was attended

When Aaron Cutchon of Sacramento was laid off from his job at an auto body shop, he could no longer afford to pay for two traffic tickets he got for driving in a carpool lane. His license was suspended, and he had to stop attending classes at a Napa junior college where he was working toward an associate’s degree [6].

After being interviewed by the supervisor at BUILD about how this program is ran and all the policies and procedures, I willing selected this agency for field practicum because I was very interested in helping this population of individual’s and I felt that this was my area of expertise already. Unfortunately, to my surprise this was not so, because I quickly realized that my level of expertise in this area of learning was very little. I realized this when many ethical issues concerning the youth participants at Leland Elementary tended arise. Although there are many ethical issues that tend to arise at Leland Elementary, there are at least two ethical issues that tend to be a constant concern in working with the youth participants there. The most frequent ethical dilemma that occurs stem from fights that the youth participants at Leland Elementary commonly partake in. When fights arise at Leland, student interns like myself face an ethical dilemma. Do we break up the youth participants from fighting or do we wait and let the school staff handle the matter? Another ethical issue that tends to arise is in the area of upholding BUILD’s policy on not giving the youth participant’s incentive for good behavior. Due to overwhelming behavioral issues at Leland Elementary regarding the youth, not rewarding them when their behavior improves has led

Our government, taxes, healthcare, security systems, international affairs regulations, and almost every other important system in our society are constantly renovated. Yet the concepts behind our general education structure and focus are rarely questioned seriously, or questioned while keeping science and ethics in mind. As a society, we cannot expect the same, or even more, work from adolescents as we do adults while treating them like they have no sensible autonomy or agency in their lives. Conditioned in this style of schooling, minors do not have the capability to effectively speak up for themselves when they have been taught to follow authority their whole lives. But as time goes on, the high expectations and pressures of students will

Right now I want you to pretend you are in a bus talking to a group of your best friends. You are having one of the best day you could ever have, then it is your turn to get off the bus. Nothing can ruin this amazing day you are having. Boom! All of a sudden, you get stuck by a car, while crossing the street to walk to your wonder family and your wonder house, ending your precious little life. This tragic accident could all have been avoided, if that car stopped at the alternating red lights the bus was signaling. I believe drivers need to stop when the buses stop to pick up or drop off students to prevent future accidents and tragedies. Stopping on red can provide more safety when your kids come home or leaving for school, also you don't

There should be no monopoly in matters to do with ethical challenges in companies. These challenges affect all kinds of organizations, be it governmental, for-profit or non-profit. Some of these challenges can end in illegal defilements or civil liability for misrepresentation, fraud and misappropriation of properties. Other common ethical difficulties consist of actions that include conflict of interest, inadequate accountability and transparency, or misallocation of resources (Rhode and Amanda 28-35).

Chapter 11 is about ethics in negotiation. Ethics are part of who we are and the higher our ethics are the higher we price tag is when it comes to defending them. Even though ethics are not enforceable by law there a minimum standard that is to obey the law, everyone has to obey the law that is involved with the negotiation process. Fraud is one those law that should not be crossed and within fraud there are six elements; knowing that you are committing fraud, misrepresentation, material, fact, reliance, and causation and demands. When it comes to ethics there are three ways that you can look at them, the school calls them; poker school, idealist school and pragmatist school. The Poker school see negations as a game, which contains certain

Wandering on campus, my friend and I were about to cross the road: the crosswalk was about 30 yards away from us. My friend stepped into the road, and the driver instinctively stopped for him, even though he could have gotten hurt. For a second, I couldn’t decide whether to follow him or just walk to the crosswalk to cross the road. The driver was waiting and my friend waved at me, “Come on, he’s already stopped.” However, I couldn’t move my feet. I turned away and moved toward the crossroad. I had to obey the law.

It was an typical day at school those ordinary days were I would go through my classes, meet with my friends, and so on continue with my day. I was somewhat content with how life was going I had good grades,a healthy relationship with my family, and I had great friends. Well it was that ordinary day when I felt betrayed by one of my closest friends. I had began to have this routine with my friend to meet with her at a certain location everyday at lunch, one day I waited for her and waited and came to a realization, well she maybe she was not at school today. Later that day I found out that she was in school inclusive she was hanging out with other girls. Friendship has always been important to me and I have always been much forgiving to many

There are many times in a setting where you work with other adults that something will come into play that provides a conflict that could potentially create a clash of ideas. Sometimes something that one person may think is the correct way to go about things, could be wrong in the eyes of the other adult. When this conflict comes into play the two people that come into problems with one another need to make adult decisions to come to an agreement on the conflict that has arisen. Conflict management is about calming discussing the situation in order to brainstorm on the problem (Watson, 2012). My paper discusses a current dilemma, ethical ideal/principles that relate to the dilemma, as well as future approach.

As we achieve burgeons of new technologies, we must also face the irreprehensible sacrifices. The old scientific adage reminds us that no trial can go without error. Many of the present day technologies may prove beneficial but the processes of development and discovery often come at high prices. Countless experiments have been conducted in the names of science and the advancement of mankind. Regardless of their outcomes, these experiments require some form of a test subject. Any life sustaining test subject has been the root of many ethical issues, with human test subjects being one of the most controversial. Granted the advantageous products of labor, the definition for what we, as moral

Code of ethics act as a promise to protect and support the safety of individuals in society, supports as a leading light it help the supporters of an occupation, resolve ethical problems and act as a protector the community. A code of ethics discloses and conserves the current viewpoint professionals on in what way to make ethical decisions. It stresses importance on obligation to moral values and vital beliefs. Application of a code of ethics helps us to guarantee that members of the profession will be accountable for their actions. It helps us to learn about the responsibility we have for ourselves, our colleagues and to the social structure of the profession. It is essential that the present and future psychologist should be

“Ethics are defined as a set of principles of right conducts; the rules or standards governing the conduct of a person or the members of a profession” ( Dictionary of the Human Language, 2000). Teachers are often put in situations that require more than just knowing the basic school rules. It is within these situations, that the ethical dilemmas occur. There is not always a right way to deal with many daily problems that face educators, but there are ways to handle situations that are better then others.
