One of the most famous studies in psychology, called the Stanford Prison Study, was conducted by Philip Zimbardo in the 1970s. The findings from the study have been used to explain how a person’s behavior changes when they are in a role of authority. The findings help psychologist understand individuals such as Nazi soldiers during World War II or, more recently, American soldiers implicated in Iraqi prisoner abuse cases. Your mission is to consider the ethics of the original experiment.

Visit the website for the study: http://www.prisonexp.org/ (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. (Links to an external site.) and progress through the slide show of what happened. (There are great videos all along the way). Then, in your essay, answer these three questions in paragraph form:

 

  1. For this study, does the benefit to society outweigh the potential harm to participants? In other words, is it okay to potentially harm people if the results will have a large impact or provide some new information? Why or why not?

 

  1. If you were a prisoner in this study, what rights would you like to have? (For example: I would like the right to stop participating at any time.) Explain each right.

 

  1. If you were the experimenter in charge, would you have done this study? Would you have terminated it earlier? Why or why not?

Compare and Contrast the Artists Caravaggio Vermeer Description: Introduce the painters, art style, summarize their significance, include some examples of their art, and find differences/similarities in their careers/art.

Compare and Contrast the Artists

  1. Caravaggio
  2. Vermeer

Description: Introduce the painters, art style, summarize their significance, include some examples of their art, and find differences/similarities in their careers/art.

The Baroque Style

The Baroque style brought new levels of naturalism and emotionalism to Western art. It featured dynamic contrasts of light and dark, an expanded sense of space, and the theatrical staging of the subject matter.

Caravaggio and Gentileschi explored a variety of illusionistic techniques to draw the spectator into the space and action of the pictorial representation.

Bernini challenged sculptural tradition by combining illusionism, naturalism, and implied movement. He brought a flamboyant style to the city of Rome, both in his fountain sculptures and in his designs for Italian Baroque churches.

Italy’s Catholic churches became ornate settings for the performance of ritual. Bernini’s The Ecstasy of Saint Teresa and Pozzo’s ceiling for the church of Sant’Ignazio achieved new heights of illusionistic theatricality.

In the graduate program at Herringbone University, students are allowed only one missed class per semester or they face academic discipline. Three female students have approached you as the diversity and ethics officer with a concern about the policy. They explain that they all have young children (as do many students in the program), and getting childcare during class times is difficult because some of the classes don’t end until 8:00 in the evening.

Assignment 3: Diversity and Ethics Cover Letter
Due: Week 9
Points: 125

Skill(s) Being Assessed: Problem Solving

Criteria for Success: In this assignment, you will:

  • Thoughtfully reflect on past experiences as they relate to consideration of diverse and ethical perspectives.
  • Identify relevant sociological concepts that tie to the situation posed.
  • Apply diverse and ethical perspectives to a decision-making process. Provide specific examples from personal experience or the scenario.
  • Articulate the value of incorporating diverse and ethical perspectives when making decisions.
  • Describe ways to raise awareness and communicate the importance of considering diverse and ethical perspectives. Include concrete examples from the identified problem.
  • Write in a professional manner using proper grammar and spelling.

What to submit/deliverables: Word document downloaded from Chapter 9 in the webtext and uploaded to the Week 9 Assignment in Blackboard.

What is the value of doing this assignment? This assignment gives you an opportunity to practice the skill of problem solving. It will show that you can use diverse and ethical perspectives when solving a problem and making a decision. Problem solving is a universal skill and one you will continue to refine as you progress throughout your career. This assignment asks you to use what you’ve learned in weeks 7–9 of the course about actively problem solving and considering diverse perspectives. Worried about where to start? The good news is that you’ve already laid the foundation throughout the course in your webtext readings, videos, and Learn sections in Blackboard.

Your goal for this assignment is to: Practice your problem solving skill. You will do this by writing a cover letter that demonstrates your knowledge of diverse and ethical perspectives and how they could be applied to the job you are applying for.

What you need to complete this assignment:

  • Cover letter template, provided in the webtext.
  • Downloaded cover letter from the webtext.

Steps to complete: Complete the template for Assignment 3 in Chapter 9 of the webtext. You will be asked to write a 3-paragraph cover letter to the head of the diversity and ethics committee.

STEP 1:Describe how your background and unique perspectives would be a valuable addition to the team.

STEP 2: Give an example of a time when you intentionally looked at other diverse and ethical perspectives in order to make a better/more ethical decision.

STEP 3: Answer the following questions based on the scenario below:

In the graduate program at Herringbone University, students are allowed only one missed class per semester or they face academic discipline. Three female students have approached you as the diversity and ethics officer with a concern about the policy. They explain that they all have young children (as do many students in the program), and getting childcare during class times is difficult because some of the classes don’t end until 8:00 in the evening. They feel the policy is unfair, especially since the university doesn’t offer any support, leniency in policy, or childcare options. In addition, the location of the university (an upper middle class neighborhood where most children have at least one parent at home) is not where most students live (a neighborhood where most children have two working parents or a single working parent).

  • How would you approach this issue using diverse and ethical perspectives? Use specific examples from the scenario and your personal and professional life.
  • Why is it important to consider diverse and ethical perspectives in this situation?
    • How would you raise awareness and communicate the importance to others at your school in your role on the diversity and ethics committee?

STEP 4: Your responses from Steps 1–3 will be combined into a template. Download this completed template by following the instructions in Chapter 9 in the webtext.
