Is the difference between knowledge and wisdom (“philosophy” means “the love of wisdom”) parallel to the difference between the apparent good and the genuine good? Using a concrete example from history or your own life between the apparent and the genuine, explain how one of the philosophers from this Module would guide us toward wisdom in this particular case.

1. Using help (if you wish) from one or more of the philosophers in this Module, defend one of the following claims about reason in moral life:

a. Being moral may sometimes require us to make a great sacrifice, but we should only be willing to make such a sacrifice if everyone else is, too.

b. What is “rational” in the way of morality is wholly dependent upon one’s culture.

2. Is the difference between knowledge and wisdom (“philosophy” means “the love of wisdom”) parallel to the difference between the apparent good and the genuine good? Using a concrete example from history or your own life between the apparent and the genuine, explain how one of the philosophers from this Module would guide us toward wisdom in this particular case.

3.A. What do you think is Huxley’s deeper point about searching for good in the modern world? What is Camus’ deeper point? Which of them do you agree with more? Why?

B. You’ve probably seen a sci-fi movie that questions the nature of reality like The Matrix, BladeRunner, Total Recall or Vanilla Sky. Robert Nozick’s “Experience Machine” story seems to make the argument what is good is not having experiences of a particular type (like experiences of happiness or satisfaction), but actually living out the experiences themselves. He seems to believe that there is something good about life, about living, that cannot be simulated. But what could this be?

4.A. Consider Aquinas’s first principle of natural law: “Do good and avoid evil.” If we lived by this principle, we would have to decide what to do in cases where doing good might lead to some lesser evil, or conversely, where avoiding evil might make us lose out on the good. Besides euthanasia, describe a concrete case of ethical decision-making in which we might need to decide between these two.

B. Is it possible that in protecting Locke’s “natural rights” of individuals that we might condemn groups or entire cultures to extinction? This is exactly the case in the Canadian province of Quebec, where English speakers outnumber French speakers to the point where the government has made it mandatory that children learn French in schools and signs be in French as well as English. The point is to preserve French culture, despite what language individuals might want to speak. Is this preservation ethically sound, in your opinion?

4.For Kant, any conflict between our “perfect” duties (see p. 3 above) is only apparent. When I face, for example, a situation in which I must both tell the truth and endanger the life of another, I do not face a genuine conflict of duties; in fact, according to Kant, I have misunderstood the situation that I am in. Assuming there are genuine conflicts of duties saying that we must do both A and not-A, what ethical tools should we use to resolve them? Discuss the question through a hypothetical scenario that involves a difficult conflict of duties.

What are the key methods of identity development?

Instructions

You are working for a local department store in the Operations Department. You notice that their business practices and use of technology are not up to date. One day while working, you are having a discussion about technology and identity formation with your supervisor. Your supervisor continues to explain that individuals and organizations have digital identities that are formed and impacted through various methods. Your supervisor continues, saying, “They can develop or change through social media, positive or negative press, word of mouth, and so on.”

You begin to understand that the digital footprint of a business or organization can greatly impact their success or failure due to many factors, including the rapid dissemination of information that can occur digitally.

Your supervisor, through the course of the discussion, acknowledges that you are very fluent in the area of digital identity and asks you to conduct research and create a visual presentation explaining how digital identity is formed for both individuals and organizations. Your supervisor says, “This visual presentation will be presented to not only me, but company stakeholders and your coworkers in order to help them understand how identity is formed, and how to best maximize digital identity to contribute to the overall success of our store.”

Your supervisor continues, saying, “From this presentation, decision makers will be able to work on identity management and can then implement digital strategies in order to maintain or improve the store’s identity. In the end, this is intended to help increase exposure to the store, enhance the customer base, and the overall success of the store. The visual representation should be interactive and informative and can be presented in any visual format that you choose.”

For this research and presentation, you are to reflect upon and address the following topics:

What are the key methods of identity development? Consider available technology, socioeconomic status, generational issues, access to technological resources, etc. Explains key methods of identity development with supported evidence, and offers strong examples of technology, socioeconomic status, and other factors.
Explain how technology and digital forums can aid in identity formation. Give 2 supported examples
Consider available technology, socioeconomic status, generational issues, access to technological resources, etc.
Are there differences between identity development in the digital world and in the physical world?
As technology improves and changes, what are some things that individuals and organizations do to impact change and development in the digital age?
How can individuals change the course of action for organizations and their digital footprint?
How is the digital identity of your store in the above scenario formulated, and what impact might that identity have on the overall success of the store? Use 2 supported examples
