Definition / Explanation of importance of key topic:
Preview of the structure of the essay
ISSUES SECTION– potential elements
Explain what the ethical dilemma is – i.e. what is the problem and why is this an ethical dilemma?
Explain why the ethical dilemma is a concern, who it affects and what the implications are.
Refer to ethical theories and principles in your explanations.
MANAGEMENT SECTION–potential elements

Consider the viewpoints / interests of the participants and their codes of ethics
If there is space, apply one or more other ethical principle – e.g. from your reading / knowledge of other cultures etc (still needs referencing even if you just happen to know it!)
CONCLUSION– potential elements
Overall main point of the essay
Key lessons learnt
Implications for professional practice
A suitable ethical principle that applies to this scenario, is non-maleficence (Newman & Pollnitz, 2002). This principle would support the teacher’s decision not to enforce the ban on mobile phones in school, as the child would. However, non-enforcement of the rule could weaken respect for the school rules in general – an issue Kant highlighted in his principle of the categorical imperative (Anfara & Mertens, 2008). A potential way of resolving the conflict between these two ethical principles could be to develop a creative compromise (Kipnis, 1987). For instance, the teacher could set aside a safe space and place for mobile phone use, based on a relationship of trust in which commitments to the learner, his aiga and to the broader profession and society (NZTC, 2004) can be realised. Since this ethical dilemma revolves around the unsatisfactory consequences of applying a school rule too harshly, the theory of Utilitarianism can usefully inform decision-making. This involves an evaluation of the likely consequences for all parties (Kagan, 1998). This perspective provides further support for the creative solution of relationship-building, since the likely outcome is far more positive in relation to the interests of the child, which must be paramount in a teacher’s decision-making (NZTC, 2004).
Evaluate this paragraph from a similar assignment
• Accurate writing and referencing• Flow – each sentence builds on the one before• Research-based – includes 6 relevant citations• Uses ethical principles to address the dilemma• Acknowledges culture of the child and family
STRENGTHS
WEAKNESSES
• May be trying to say too much in one paragraph• Does not explicitly apply an ethical framework• Might have acknowledged the child’s and family’s
perspectives and ethical principles more explicitly
