Ethics Case Study

Steven Smith was employed by the Avon School District as a high school English Language Arts teacher. He posted three photos of his students’ writing on Facebook®, highlighting their grammar gaffes and misspellings. He also commented on the mistakes.

Smith’s posts weren’t shared publicly on the social media site, but a customized group of his Facebook friends could see the photos. Someone who thought his posts were inappropriate for a school teacher did not contact Smith, but did contact the local newspaper about the photos and comments. The school district’s central office received an anonymous tip about the teacher, his posts, and the forthcoming newspaper article.

Prompt:  Write two paragraphs (100 words each).  In the first paragraph consider either the perspective of the teacher, a parent, the administrator, or a student.  What would they likely say about the news release and the actions of the teacher?  In your second paragraph,  discuss which dispositions (SCRIP), ethical standards (MCEE) and/or Biblical principles were violated or upheld?  Include at least one specific example from each category.

Expository Essay Outline Template

When you write an expository essay that presents two sides of an issue without revealing bias, there are three primary organizational tactics that can be used:

1. Present all the major arguments on one side of the issue, and then present all the major arguments of the opposing viewpoint.

2. Present one of the major issues relating to the overarching topic, and in the same paragraph, discuss the viewpoints of both sides on this particular issue.

3.  In one paragraph, present one of the viewpoints on one major aspect of the controversy, and then follow that paragraph with another paragraph presenting the opposing views’ arguments related to the same aspect of the controversy. You then repeat that pattern one to three more times.

Carefully consider these options, choose one, and continue with this organizational strategy for your entire essay.
