Keystone Revision
Final Essay- Keystone Assessment (30 % of your class grade) Please read AI Dunlap Obituary, Ethics of Love Article, and watch Ethics of Love lecture
In a five-paragraph essay or more, apply ONE of these ethical theories (Kant's Categorical Imperative, Utilitarianism, Virtue Ethics and Ethics of Love) to AI Dunlap’s business leadership evaluating his moral attitudes and actions according to the ethical theory applied. Apply the ethical theory in each paragraph to support your arguments throughout the entire essay. Not using an ethical theory results in an automatic zero. Using more than one ethical theory results in an
automatic zero.
The keystone assessment will be graded according to the following aspects:
1) You have an introduction paragraph that introduces the moral issues of AI Dunlap and
the moral theory of your choosing. You also have a thesis statement that clearly
states your position and how you will argue for it.
2) You choose only one of four moral ethical theories listed above as the cornerstone
of your essay.
i) For Kant’s Deontology, you include and apply his two arguments and Sandel’s
three contrasts.
ii) For Utilitarianism, you include and apply Bentham’s four points in his “Principle
of Utility” and three or more aspects of his “Felicific Calculus."
iii) For Virtue Ethics, you include and apply Aristotle’s “Golden Mean”, his views on
universal virtues with their relation to eudaimonia, and three or more virtues from
the virtue table
4) For Ethics of Love, you include and apply the personalism ethics of Dietrich von Hildebrand and Max Scheler to suffering
3) Each reason is communicated well and related to the AI Dunlap story.
You use examples from his obituary to demonstrate your point. Each reason has
enough detail to clearly illustrate your position to someone who doesn’t know too
much about ethics.
4) You have a conclusion that neatly wraps up the gist of the essay by evaluating whether you think AI Dunlap is a moral hero and what you hope for your own future as a moral person.
