Ethical Actions Worksheet

Write a 100- to 150-word response to each of the following questions:

Was there anything in either the University of Phoenix Student Code of Conduct or the Student Code of Academic Integrity that surprised you? If so, what was it? Why were you surprised? If not, why not?

The Student Code of Conduct and the Student Code of Academic Integrity were both very informative. In the Student Code of Conduct, there was no information that I can say that I found very shocking. All of the rules that are listed in the Student Code of Conduct, seem to be in place to ensure that students will be able to learn and work in a safe and productive environment. In the Student Code of Academic Integrity, there was also nothing that I can say that I found necessarily surprising. In a learning environment, us as students should be expected to rely on our own academic abilities, and submit work that is our own.

What did you learn about the behaviors considered important for an ethical learner or student in the University of Phoenix learning community?

Each student has their own unique set of ethics, principals and rules, which help us to determine the choices that we will make in life as well as during our learning experience. I learned that the way that each of us learn and react to different situations, can be from a variety of many different things. For example, our DNA, upbringing, as well as the communities in which we grew up in play a vital role in our decision making process and the ethical choices that we decide to make. At the University of Phoenix, it is important that each member follow the ethical standards, to ensure that every student is safe and treated with respect.

Why are the Student Code of Conduct and Student Code of Academic Integrity important to you and the University of Phoenix learning community?

The Student Code of Conduct and the Student Code of Academic Integrity are both

    Learning team B’s position on ethical issues on academic integrity is there are visible areas impacted such as the internet and universities because it is easy to copyright, plagiarize, and flat out cheat. Students understand that information is easily accessible online and if work is not cited correctly it could be considered cheating and plagiarism because of the copyright infringement. Solutions to ethical issues regarding academic integrity would be Student Code of Conduct and Ethics that discusses what is acceptable, and during each class each instructor will let you know more specifically what he/she expects of each student while in her classroom. When submitting an assignment each student needs to turn in a signed document of originality stating that what you are turning in is your own thoughts turned in on the assignment, and our position on the need for a code of ethics for Internet authors.…

    In the wake of numerous cheating scandals, such as those at the University of Virginia and Harvard, many people have began to question the effectiveness of honor codes (sources C, D). Honor codes can be defined as a set of rules implemented in a school that are based around morals that define both acceptable and unacceptable behaviors. While many feel as though such guidelines are necessary in maintaining a schools’ dignity, others believe that honor codes are impossible to enforce. Honor codes should not be enforced because they are too harsh, unrealistic, and put innocent students in uncomfortable social situations.…

    With the rise of the digital age cheating and plagiarism are becoming easier for students to get away with, with more access to information and higher stakes some would argue it had become a ‘necessary evil’. In turn it has also become easier to find and punish cheaters, but disputes on how to regulate these students and hopefully prevent cheating and ever waging. Honor codes have been implemented at schools and universities across the nation, that are a written agreement that require students to be honest in their work and conduct, especially promising not to cheat; however, many people (both students and administrators) are questioning if they actually provide positive results.
