Dr. Wehls has asked you to research one of the topics (use Flint Water Crisis) listed in the scenario. He would like you to create an infographic or slide that gives an overview of the topic and examines what went wrong or what could go wrong. He also asked you to write a blog post on the ethical implications of the scientific or technical topic you examined.
- Infographic
Create an infographic using imaging software like PowerPoint. Your infographic should present an overview of facts about your chosen topic. This could include the history of the topic, interesting statistics, or any pros and cons related to the topic.
Note: As you complete your research, you will discover ethical issues related to the topic. These do not need to be covered in your infographic. You will discuss ethical issues in your blog post.
- Blog Post
Your blog post should discuss the ethical issues surrounding your chosen topic. In your blog post be sure to cover the following:
- Discuss the ethics of the decision makers involved in your topic. What motivated the decision makers to make the choices they did? How did their decisions affect others?
- Explain your agreement or disagreement with the decisions that were made.
- Discuss any ethical perspectives that can be applied to your topic.
