The message behind the exercise was that you need to work together with your community to succeed, you need to rely on your own personal values as well as the people around you in your community to succeed. This is going to be very important moving forward especially in our Doctor of Physical Therapy Program. We are going to need to work together to get through this long and vigorous curriculum but we are also going to have to rely on our own values. There could be a time where you forget your values and you could end up hurting yourself in the future. Another powerful message in the River of life activity was that you cannot forget about your values. In the activity a piece of paper represented your values and we saw that our papers were all crumpled and destroyed because they were walked over to reach the other side. In life our values and ethics are going to get beaten up and we are going to question them but if we stick with them we will make it to wherever it is that we want to go and whatever it that we want to do. The last message of the River of life is that we needed to leave our home to succeed, although we still have one foot in our home we are slowly beginning this long and difficult journey to achieve the ultimate goal of getting our doctorate in physical
Christina H. Sommers describes ethics and its misperceived conception in the education system through her article Teaching the Virtues . Morality is defined through two concepts, social and self. Social morality is based on the social values and agreements set among the people. On the contrary, private morality originates from within us and is an example of decency, honesty, honor, etc. The education system lacks to discipline students on both aspects of ethics. One of examples given was a significant number of students who cheated on their finals
Ethics are a set of moral principles that guide our behavior. As a discipline, ethics deals with what is good and bad as well as questions of moral duty and obligation.

C.S Lewis once said, “Education without values, as useful as it is, seems rather to make man a more clever devil.” Ethics, defined by Merriam-Webster, is a “set of moral principles.” Ethical behavior should create an ideal learning environment that builds the foundation of an ethical environment. The experience gained in an ethical AP English classroom will greatly affect the student’s future. Education is not limited to academic study, but is rather the holistic growth of a human being.

She comes to regard her foster parents as her real parents. They love her as they would their own daughter.

I think that higher education should promote better ethics. I feel if someone is going to try and better themselves and try and gain more knowledge then a little ethics refresher courses should help as well. I think that colleges should promote ethics. Reason being that people are going to college to train in the field that they are going to make a career out of which is where most people will spend their life doing. So they should help teach ethics to those that are planning on becoming an adult. High school prepares you for college but they don’t have ethics classes in high school too much. There are also a lot of families that unfortunately don’t teach their children moral and ethical values. So I think that colleges can help with
Morals are infrequently conflated or mistook for different methods for settling on decisions, including religion, law or ethical quality. Numerous religions advance moral choice making yet don't generally address the full scope of moral decisions that we always come across. Religions might likewise advocate or deny certain practices which may not be viewed as the correct area of morals, for example, dietary confinements or sexual practices (K.A. Francis, Demand Media, 2014). A decent arrangement of law ought to be moral, however, the law sets up a point of reference in attempting to direct all inclusive rules and is subsequently not ready to react to individual connections.

After the weekend the tenants were told that the situation had been turned over to their insurance company and it was out of their hands. The tenants believe that the company should hold their self-responsible and accommodate them much more.
In today’s continuous changing world, the one thing that remains constant for most of us is our personal value system of beliefs, known as ethics. Ethics can also be referred to as morals. Therefore, ethics are those morals that reflect and indicate issues that concern behaviors that are right or wrong and the good and bad habits of individual character.

One of David’s conclusion is that people besides learning and acquiring practical skills from the formal education or training. People also need something more than the practical skills, which is something of a different nature and it is something someone concludes self. Swenson states that youth requires developing a view of life in order to become a good person in moral and developed personalities. The view of life is not acquired through training and learning provided by general means of formal education or experience, but is obtained individually through thinking over someone’s life, self-exploring and subjective conviction. The reason for developing such view of life is that view of life is the mean of giving one’s life. “it is a principle of living, a spirit and an attitude capable of maintaining its unity and identity with itself in all of life’s complexities and varying vicissitudes.” Said by Swenson. It is the sense, dignity and worth. Otherwise, a life cannot be considered to be as living in a human
