Character in the Professions: Law
Discussion Board Unit 3
Please use these discussion boards
to interact with your fellow learners. The discussion boards provide a unique
opportunity for learners to debate ideas and thoughts generated by the ‘Character
in the Professions: Law’ course and reflect on the application of theory
discussed in your professional lives.
Unit 3 is your opportunity to pause and engage in an active ‘Reflection’ about what you have studied.
You may find it useful now to go back to the questions you
answered at the beginning of the course and reflect on your thoughts.
Do your thoughts differ now to when you started the course?
Begin by taking the below Quiz to check your learning and understanding.
Refer back to the dilemmas posed in Unit 2.5 and use the Markkula Center for Applied Ethics ‘Making an Ethical Decision’ app to work through the dilemma. State which dilemma you have tackled and discuss below.
