Review Test #2

posted by Glenn on Wednesday April 02, @07:08AM
from the Test-Review dept.

Exam Review

This review gives you a fair indication of most of the content of the second test. The test will be on chapters 5-8 of our text with a little bit of chapter 9 (depending how far we get in lecture next week) and as usual anything discussed in class.

If you study our text, review the lecture notes - and attend the lectures, of course - and compose answers for each of the following questions, you should be well prepared.

Once again, the format of the test will consist of some T/F questions, some multiple-choice questions, and one essay question. The essay question will concern a case study (likely an environmental issue) where you will be asked to discuss how a utilitarian might assess the situation. To prepare for this question you should (1) have a decent grasp of utilitarian theory (2) consider the examples in our text (e.g., euthanasia, our treatment of animals) that show how a utilitarian approaches ethical problems.

N.B. This review will be updated next week to include anything we discuss in the lecture before the test.


Now updated!

Lecture Below are the notes for our two lectures on Egoism. You'll notice that we skipped the two arguments against Egoism Rachels reviews on pp.82-85. You are NOT responsible for these arguments and they will NOT be on the test -- although you are encouraged to take a look at them.

Lecture

This review gives you a fair indication of most of the content of the first test.

If you study our text, review the lecture notes - and attend the lectures, of course - and compose answers for each of the following questions, you should be well prepared.

The format of the test will consist of some T/F questions, some multiple-choice questions, and one essay question. The essay question will concern Chapter 4, "Does Morality Depend on Religion?".

Please note that we still have to complete our discussion of chapter 4 -- I’ll update this review next week.

Now updated!

Lectures: Lecture Notes

posted by Glenn on Saturday February 09, @01:52PM
from the Notes dept.

Lecture

Below are the slide notes for cultural relativism. I'll post a little review quiz this week.

A Note About the Notes: These notes are points of discussion from the main lecture (projected for one and all to ponder). The purpose of posting them is so that you may concentrate on the lecture and classroom discussion instead of trying to jot everything down. However if you do not attend the main lecture and study the text, these notes will not be very helpful. So, read the text and I’ll see you in class!
