  1. Seminarium 5 Feb

  2. Ethical Problem • You are a PhD student (problem owner) and have a student who clearly is not eligible for a “pass” in your course • Should you let the student pass anyway?

  3. If No - ethical problems or conflicts in the context? • Direct conflict with the disappointed/angry student • The department loses money • You will lose more time because of more work on the course (re-correcting exams/reports). Your supervisor thinks you should spend it on research instead!

  4. If YES - ethical problems or conflicts in the context? • Student does not get the education he/she is entitled to • Unfair to students that passed the course rightfully

  5. Which alternative solutions are there? • Hand problem to someone else (course administrator) • Negotiate other solutions with the student

  6. Who will be affected by the decision? Yourself The student The Dpt. /Next course The university The society

  7. What values, interests, duties ... are involved in the solution? • You have standards which you wish to uphold • If yes, your standards are lowered • The university/department gets money for every student who passes their course • If yes, they get more money but students might be less prepared for the next course • You are excepted to educate the students • If yes, the society loses competence (which they have paid for) • You have an obligation to do research • If yes, you get more time for you own research

  8. How to make sure the solution is used? You can talk to all the course teachers to agree on the standard - Where do we draw the line? You can talk to the student and try to figure out a solution together You can talk to the person in charge of the course and make sure they know about the student
