Mother Nature Meets Father Time

Ethics in the Information Age

This is the title of one of my current courses. It is a requirement for my degree. I was worried I was simply going to hate it, because I work in communications, and this is a topic on which we are briefed routinely. I have to take tests, and earn certificates explaining my understanding of IT ethical procedures for my workplace.

The class is a little different from the training I have received, though, and I think I will be okay with it. In addition to the book work, and class participation, our major assignments are all case studies which address whichever chapter of the book we are studying during the assignment period.

I like the case study, because it gives me a chance to use my imagination and write hypothetically. I was worried it would be more researched based, with in work citations and the like, but if I am simply making up hypothetical situations and providing my suggested resolutions, then I can handle that!
