The Originals: Classic Readings in Western Philosophy
Unrestricted Use

Rating
0.0 stars

It is important for students not only to get an appreciation and understanding of philosophy but also to be exposed to the very words and ideas of those who have shaped our thinking over the centuries. Accordingly, the title of this collection hints at the facts that these readings are from the original sources and that these philosophers were the originators of many of the issues we still discuss today. Major areas of philosophy covered here are: Ethics, Epistemology, Metaphysics, Philosophy of Religion, Ethics, Socio-Political Philosophy, and finally, Aesthetics.

Our AI Code of Ethics
Only Sharing Permitted
CC BY-NC-ND
Rating
0.0 stars

This lesson centers around the How AI Works: Privacy and the Future of Work video from the How AI Works video series. Watch this video first before exploring the lesson plan.

In small groups, students conduct research using articles and videos that expose ethical pitfalls in an artificial intelligence area of their choice. Afterward, each group develops at least one solution-oriented principle that addresses their chosen area. These principles are then assembled into a class-wide “Our AI Code of Ethics” resource (e.g. a slide presentation, document, or webpage) for AI creators and legislators everywhere.

This lesson can be taught on its own, or as part of a 7-lesson sequence on How AI Works. Duration: 45 minutes

This is a collection of OER readings in philosophical ethics: readings having either a CC (creative commons) license or a public domain mark. The collection aims to be comprehensive enough to suit the different teaching interests of different ethics instructors: it is a “choose your own adventure” sort of textbook. As there are hundreds of different and about equally good ways to introduce philosophy to students, there are hundreds of different and about equally good ways to introduce ethics to students. There is a vast range of topics, readings, concepts, and questions that an introductory ethics course could cover, and here I sought to curate freely accessible readings that collectively cover most of that range, while prioritizing topics that are most covered in introductory ethics courses, such as moral relativism and utilitarianism.

Phil-P102 Critical Thinking and Applied Ethics
Only Sharing Permitted
CC BY-NC-ND
Rating
0.0 stars

As an “applied ethics” course, the goal is to help you understand the role that ethical (and other) values play in our lives, and how argumentation that involves values both depends on and differs from reasoning about non-evaluative matters. For even if agreement about matters of value is sometimes challenging, it is possible to think critically in ethical matters and to have better and worse arguments for our beliefs. Gaining proficiency in this sort of critical thinking isn’t just an academic need — it will help you understand and engage the world around you and be able to resist those who either intentionally or unintentionally would deceive you. This course is driven by concrete scenarios and real-world issues we face today, but it is framed by 2500 years of Western philosophy and the conceptual and analytical tools developed in this tradition. Thus, the course provides a good introduction to philosophy, and it will hopefully encourage some of you to pursue further study within the philosophy department.

Philosophical Ethics
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

This book is an introduction to philosophical ethics intended for use in introductory college or high school level courses. It has grown out of lecture notes I shared with the first students who took my online Ethics course at the Pennsylvania College of Technology almost 20 years ago. Since then it has seen more development in a variety of forms – starting out as a pdf document, and then evolving into a static set of WordPress pages and finally now as a book written in bookdown and hosted at GitHub. This text represents my attempt to scratch a couple of itches. The first is my wanting a presentation of the major philosophical approaches to ethics that I can actually agree with and that is integrated into my overall teaching method. I tend to teach philosophy to beginners and so there is a fair amount of discussion of the tools used by philosophers and of the ways in which their approach differs from that of their colleagues in other disciplines.

The Politics of Aristotle is the second part of a treatise of which the Ethics is the first part. It looks back to the Ethics as the Ethics looks forward to the Politics. For Aristotle did not separate, as we are inclined to do, the spheres of the statesman and the moralist. In the Ethics he has described the character necessary for the good life, but that life is for him essentially to be lived in society, and when in the last chapters of the Ethics he comes to the practical application of his inquiries, that finds expression not in moral exhortations addressed to the individual but in a description of the legislative opportunities of the statesman. It is the legislator's task to frame a society which shall make the good life possible. Politics for Aristotle is not a struggle between individuals or classes for power, nor a device for getting done such elementary tasks as the maintenance of order and security without too great encroachments on individual liberty. The state is "a community of well-being in families and aggregations of families for the sake of a perfect and self-sufficing life." The legislator is a craftsman whose material is society and whose aim is the good life.

The Primacy of the Public

Rating
0.0 stars

The Primacy of the Public presents a framework for engineering and technology ethics focused around three core ethical principles: the principle of welfare, the autonomy principle, and the fairness principle. To support this framework, the book begins with an examination of multiple perspectives we may take on engineering and technology, all of which support the centrality of ethical analysis and evaluation. These include the nature of engineering as a profession, the social context of engineering and technology, and the view that many technologies constitute social experiments.

Principles of Microeconomics with Ethics
Read the Fine Print
Educational Use
Rating
0.0 stars

Microeconomics with Ethics is an introductory college-level textbook that will enable students to understand current controversies about how to best organize an economic system. The approach emphasizes economic model development and how to interpret their results. The textbook first introduces an Edgeworth box to explain the gains from trade and comparative advantage. We then introduce market complexity, stepwise, by introducing monopoly, oligopoly, and finally perfect competition with supply and demand. Government policy is analyzed under perfect competition and in the presence of market imperfections such as externalities, public goods and common resources. Students will learn why some economic models support limited government while others support a much larger role for government. The textbook diverges only slightly from traditional neoclassical textbooks by demonstrating why individual self-interest must be constrained by ethical behavior to achieve economically efficient outcomes. For example, the acceptance of theft, equivalent to a violation of property rights, may more readily satisfy someone’s self-interest, but would nonetheless undermine the development of markets involving mutually voluntary exchange. Other unethical behaviors examined include deceptive business practices, efforts to undermine free competition, the unwillingness to consider community well-being, and economic disloyalties. Lastly, the text highlights how both private institutions, such as religions, and public institutions, such as criminal justice systems, can constrain unethical behaviors and thereby promote economic efficiency. Students will come away from this course with a rich understanding of the modern economic system and a clearer perspective on the different opinions across the economic and political spectrum about how to best organize an economy.
