Ethics

In the Technical WorkplaceSlide4

Key Definitions

Ethics— “systems of moral, social , or cultural values that govern the conduct of an individual or community” (TCT, 69).

Ethical dilemma— “a choice among two or more unsatisfactory courses of action” (TCT, 69).Slide5

Sources of ethical behavior

Personal Ethics— “Values derived from family, culture, & faith.”

Social Ethics— “Values derived from constitutional, legal, utilitarian, and caring sources.”

Rights (civil & constitutional)

Justice (laws and corporate policies)

Utilitarianism (greatest good—majority rules)

Care (tolerance and compassion) (TCT, 75)

Conservation Ethics— “Values that protect and preserve the ecosystem in which we live” (TCT, 72).Slide6

Ethical dilemmas

To resolve an ethical dilemma find the point of “ethical tension”—the point where two or more ethical stances are incompatible.

Product liability is one example where these kinds of conflicts can occur.Slide7

Steps to Resolution

Ask yourself these questions as you work through an ethical dilemma:

Do any laws or rules govern my decision?

Do any corporate or professional codes of ethics offer guidelines?

Are there any historical records from which to learn?

What do my colleagues think?

What would moral leaders do?

Then, choose to make an informed decision.Slide8

How is ethical behavior determined?

Read “A Framework for Thinking Ethically”

http://cpsr.org/issues/ethics/cei/

Read “General Guidelines” for Technical Writing

http://wiz.cath.vt.edu/tw/TechnicalWriting/Ethics/stcguidelines.htm

Consider the basis or framework for your own personal ethics statement.Slide9

Discussion Activity

Read “The Ten Commandments of Computer Ethics”

http://cpsr.org/issues/ethics/cei/

Discuss

critique

these commandments using what you’ve learned about ethics thus far from the textbook and other resources, as well as your own experience with using computers.

Make

list

of any exceptions you can think of to the codes and any ethical considerations you think have been left out.Slide10

Other Ethical considerations

Sometimes, you will need to communicate legal rights and duties as they relate to your subject. Every attempt should be made to eliminate ambiguous or confusing legal jargon.

Confidentiality ensures frankness from sources regarding primary information obtained through surveys etc.

Ethical communication involves giving credit to others’ ideas

as well as gaining permission to use someone else’s ideas or work. Slide11

Laws governing use of information

According to copyright law, “materials ...owned by the people who wrote or produced them” are protected from unauthorized use.

The Constitutional Provision Respecting Copyright

The Congress shall have Power ... To promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts, by securing for limited Times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive Right to their respective Writings and Discoveries.

United States Constitution, Article I, Section 8Slide13

Trademarks & Patents

Trademarks

are a symbol, word, or words legally registered or established by use as representing a company or product.

Usually the trademark is signaled by the

symbol.

Trademarks may be registered at the US Patent & Trademark Office.

Registered Trademarks become the exclusive property of the trademark’s owner.Slide14

Trademarks & Patents

“Patents

are intellectual property rights granted by the Government of the United States of America to an inventor ...

to exclude others from making, using, offering for sale, or selling the invention throughout the United States or importing the invention into the United States

for a limited time in exchange for public disclosure of the invention when the patent is granted.”

Consider how issues of copyright law can affect technical communication.

Watch this video link...

Professor Eric Faden of Bucknell University created this humorous, yet informative, review of copyright principles delivered through the words of the very folks we can thank for nearly endless copyright terms.
