Solving ethical issues can be a complex process, and the steps you'll need to take will vary slightly depending on the circumstances. In general, though, you'll need to collect as much information as possible, review your options, and...

This thought-provoking philosophy teaching resource focuses on ethics and meta-ethics: instead of focusing on specific moral issues (which is covered in a different session on 'Applied Ethics' this re-usable lesson explores the fundamental nature of ethics, the difference between 'right' and 'wrong', the function of moral language, different theories of normative ethics, different ways of thinking about how we ought to live, and deeper issues around the metaphysical status of good and evil. This session is ideal for teachers who want to explore philosophy with students and is of particular value to teachers who want to nurture the moral development of their students (perhaps in an SMSC or PSHE context) and trigger deeper reflections on the fundamental nature of 'right and wrong'; we've carefully selected the most significant issues and questions relating to normative ethics and meta-ethics so that young learners can engage in fun philosophical discussions and debates. This session explores topics such as: -The fundamental nature of good and evil -Different ways of evaluating the morality of actions -Virtue ethics and what it means 'to be a good person' -Whether or not morality is absolute or relative (e.g. to different cultures and time-periods) -The degree to which moral judgement refer to objective facts -The degree to which moral judgement are baseless and arbitrary This philosophy teaching resource also outlines and explains different philosophical views about normative ethics (such as utilitarianism, virtue ethics and deontology) and meta-ethics (such as realist, anti-realist, absolutist and relativist views). The big question asked in this session is "What is the fundamental difference between good and evil acts?". Using a variety of engaging activities students will discuss and debate a wide range of other philosophical questions such as: -What makes it reasonable to call a specific action “good”? -Are there some actions that we can say are always evil in all situations, time periods and cultures? -What is the role of empathy in compassion in determining the most morally correct course of action in life? and -What is the most important virtue to cultivate in life? Students will also analyse and evaluate an eclectic mix of philosophical claims such as: -“Some actions are morally permissible even when they create suffering for others.” -“Some people are born evil” and -“It is impossible to truly know the difference between right and wrong, good and evil.” This session uses our unique format for philosophy teaching resources and features an integrated menu that allows teachers to select from a variety of starter, main, plenary, assessment and end-of-lesson reflection activities. With a massive selection of activities designed to trigger philosophical discussions, debates and reflections: you can re-use the resource numerous times with the same group. Aside from a wide range of debate and discussion activities, teachers can also choose from a variety of more substantial activities such as essay writing, poetry writing, and speech writing tasks. Moreover, whilst our resources focus on 'doing philosophy' over 'teaching about philosophy', the presentation features 'key information' and 'advanced information' slides that teachers can choose to use in their lessons as well as a key-word match exercise which will help expand students' philosophical vocabulary. This resource is suitable for teachers of all school subjects who are looking to introduce philosophy, philosophical thinking and critical thinking. As with all our resources, this session will help students to develop vital communication, social and interpersonal skills: healthy debates will help learners to practice 'disagreeing in an agreeable fashion'. This resource is suitable for students aged 8-16; due to the flexible nature of the sessions design it can be used for multiple hour-long sessions or as a short stimulating tutor-group activity. The file is a PowerPoint Show: no planning or preparation is required, just run the file and the intuitive menu system will make delivering a powerful philosophy session very easy!

About Neuroethics Explores the ethical, legal, and societal issues arising from brain imaging, psychopharmacology, and other new developments in neuroscience. Neuroscience increasingly allows us to explain, predict, and even control aspects of human behavior. The ethical issues that arise from these developments extend beyond the boundaries of conventional bioethics into philosophy of mind, psychology, theology, public policy, and the law. This broader set of concerns is the subject matter of neuroethics. In this book, leading neuroscientist Martha Farah introduces the reader to the key issues of neuroethics, placing them in scientific and cultural context and presenting a carefully chosen set of essays, articles, and excerpts from longer works that explore specific problems in neuroethics from the perspectives of a diverse set of authors. Included are writings by such leading scientists, philosophers, and legal scholars as Carl Elliot, Joshua Greene, Steven Hyman, Peter Kramer, and Elizabeth Phelps. Topics include the ethical dilemmas of cognitive enhancement; issues of personality, memory and identity; the ability of brain imaging to both persuade and reveal; the legal implications of neuroscience; and the many ways in which neuroscience challenges our conception of what it means to be a person. Neuroethics is an essential guide to the most intellectually challenging and socially significant issues at the interface of neuroscience and society. Farah’s clear writing and well-chosen readings will be appreciated by scientist and humanist alike, and the inclusion of questions for discussion in each section makes the book suitable for classroom use.

An ethical issue brings systems of morality and principles into conflict. Unlike most conflicts that can be disputed with facts and objective truths, ethical issues are more subjective and open to opinions and interpretation.
