Management Curriculum

Any attempt at teaching Ethics in disciplines other than Philosophy should be well justified. One justification is that through ethics teaching across the curriculum, pre-professionals and professionals get well equipped to apply ethical theories to resolve moral crises in practical life. One example is popular enough, i.e., through ethical teaching we prepare competent professionals in our business schools, who may further apply this knowledge in their field as well as assume the role of ethics consultants to resolve moral crisis in the field of management. I have tried to show why such a justification is completely unfounded. A critique of this justification leads us to know what applying ethics consists in and, in what sense teaching ethics across the curriculum, for instance, in business management curriculum may be useful.

Educational Module

Medical ethics training is as variable as it is widespread. Previous research has indicated that medical learners find systematic approaches to ethical dilemmas to be helpful. This article describes a bioethics educational module. It includes an overview of common bioethical principles and presents a tool for organizing health-care providers’ thinking and discussions about challenging ethical dilemmas. We discuss an area of bioethics that is often neglected, clinical integrity, and the role that a health-care provider’s clinical integrity plays in ethical decision-making. We provide several hypothetical ethical vignettes for practice and discussion using the clinical integrity tool. The article also describes how this module has been implemented in one medical education setting and provides suggestions for educators.

Educational Role

This paper argues that literature - story telling in particular - can be an effective way of teaching ethics. Exposing readers to good role models can help impart ethical values. The Qur’an itself uses story-telling to convey many of its ethical principles. Literature can serve as a powerful instrument in the cause of civilisational renewal, not only by promoting a culture of learning and literacy, but also by contributing to the development and strengthening of moral integrity.

Case Study Teaching

The Harvard Business School introduced the practice of teaching business ethics through case study. This article presents the characteristics of teaching business ethics through case study. First we answered the question: how to build a case study? Then we showed how moral problems are solved through a case study. Next we showed the types of case study (teaching goal, kind of moral issues, the role of ethics and problems of this method of teaching). Then we answered the question how to use the methods of philosophy for the analysis of case study. We have considered the problem of the moral level of the students who solved the case study. Turning to practical matters provides instructions for building a case study. Finally, we showed that solving the case study not only provides a valuable method of teaching ethics in the business, but is valuable for professional ethics.
