1) Title of Workshop: Challenge your values –Let’s talk Ethics
2) Enrichment Area Fulfilled: Community-Global awareness
3) Date/Time Attended: Semptember17/ 1pm-2pm
4) How did the workshops affect your perspective of the topic that was discussed?
We talked about the problem of ethics. In college, people focus more on the problem of plagiarism and how it is important in academic life. The advisor gave us a worksheet about how plagiarism’s negative effects on us and how to avoid it while writing our paper. I also have an experience that makes me notice that people have different perceptions toward ethic issues.
5) How did the workshop take you out of your comfort zone?
This workshop took me out of comfort zone by presenting me that people make different choices. They see what is right in various ways and I think it is interesting that almost all their reasons are rational.
6) Explain what the workshop was about and tell us why you specifically chose that workshop.
Ethics are important in every way in our lives. In college, the biggest concern while we are doing our work for school is plagiarism. Some people think that it is alright to copy other’s original work. However, it is unacceptable, and this workshop explains why we should not do so. The activity we have later also explains that people actually view the same issue differently.
