Read these instructions carefully and create an outline before you begin writing.
You will be required to submit a min 2–4-page max midterm paper, not including references (double-spaced, 12 point font, Times New Roman, APA style, no cover page) with the following format:
Provide a unique title to your paper
Introduction of the ethical issue (pick one from Chapters 9 to 21)
Define and explain the ethical issue. Give background and context with relevant citations. Explain why we should care about this issue and why you care.
Explicitly state the problem
You will provide a specific angle to the ethical issue you are analyzing.
Pick one ethical theory that would help solve the problem
Explain the theory carefully and how it would help resolve the issue you picked. (For instance: utilitarianism would help us solve the issue of abortion, specifically of the restriction of rights that women have over their own bodies.) Provide arguments in favor of the application of the theory you picked. Make sure to give specific details and examples.
Pick another ethical theory that would not help solve the problem
Provide a contrast and explain how this second ethical theory has limitations/contradictions and how it could potentially make the problem worse.
Conclusion
Wrap up your essay by providing your closing remarks.
