St Thomas University Willowbrook State School Articles Question

We know that values are principles and beliefs that we hold dear. When values concern right and wrong behavior, we call people moral or immoral, or we call people ethical or unethical. Ethics are a formal dimension of values that defines standards of right and wrong conduct. Ethics are standards of conduct that reflect what we consider to be right or wrong behavior. Many conflicts about values involve an ethical dimension where we are asked to choose whether one action or policy is more ethical (fair or right) than another.

As you learn about what happened at the Willowbrook State School, think about the ethics involved, and think of any connections you can make to your prior knowledge and experiences. Be mindful of how this place changed how society views ethics. ( Before you begin the questions, read the two articles and watch the video below.)
