Ethical Thinking

This prompt should be approximately 1 page single-spaced. They should have subheadings, your name, and be completed by Friday at 12pm

Resources to Read

• Look over ACM’s 2018 Code of Ethics
• 1 Page poster on Ethical Decision Making
• Many of you will be in leadership positions in the future, read this infographic on The Practice of Ethical Leadership
• Read the Tarot Cards of Tech that is atttached to the Google Classroom assignment.

Then…

Individually, you will be thinking through ethical blind spots in your project.

• To make this concrete, you should pick 3 of the tarot cards that you think could apply to your system. Many of them may not apply, but I encourage you to really reflect on what could happen if someone was really bent on abusing your technology (or the outcome of your project)
• Before turning it in on Google Classroom, print out a copy that you can bring to class

Finally

On Friday, we will discuss with groups, and also with the class, some of the ethical implications of our work. Each group will add a section to their System Design document that explicitly discusses the “Broader Impact” of their projects.
