Write a 5-7 page analysis of ethical behavior, diversity, and civil discourse as they relate to your educational specialization.<\/p>\n
Ethical behavior, diversity, and civil discourse are subjects not easily defined for study. We can point to perceived differences between people and cultures; however, that is only the tip of the proverbial iceberg, ignoring the effects of those differences in a given context. Additionally, focus on ethical behavior, diversity, and civil discourse usually requires value comparisons and judgments, rather than a “one side versus the other” approach.<\/p>\n
In the context of the field of education, the effects of ethical behavior, diversity, and civil discourse on individuals and organizations cannot be ignored. The challenges of adopting a broad view of difference and creating an equitable learning experience for all whom we lead are many, and they are not easily met. However, the professional literature of the field is a rich resource of tools, research, and practical experience and application.<\/p>\n
At first glance, ethical practice might seem to be a very simple concept\u2014just do the right thing! Upon closer examination, however, the student of ethical practice discovers that commitment to this precept challenges educators upon their encounters with ethical dilemmas. Shapiro and Stefkovich (1996) ask a defining question:<\/p>\n
According to John Dewey (1908), ethics is the science that deals with conduct insofar as this is considered to be right or wrong, good or bad.\u2026Looking at this definition from a critical perspective, one might ask: Ethics approved by whom? Right or wrong according to whom? (p. 2)<\/p>\n
Ethical behavior is relatively easy when faced with right versus wrong; one simply does the right thing. Ethical dilemmas surface, though, when facing more complex decisions that involve right versus right.<\/p>\n
Diversity in all organization settings can take many forms. We may consider differences across many criteria, including the following:<\/p>\n
When taking account of this diversity, the principles of multicultural education encourage us to acknowledge differences, addressing the reality of each person’s experience and seeking the best possible outcomes for all. Diversity and multicultural education theories indicate that an important role of educators is to plan for and implement educational practices that recognize the diverse needs of the people they serve.<\/p>\n

You will apply the scholarly research skills you began building in the Literature Review to focus on challenges relevant to these domains and inherent in your specialization. Going one step further, you will then choose and explain the main challenges in your specialization, as suggested by your review. Note that you are writing a condensed literature review for this assessment.<\/p>\n Ethical behavior, diversity, and civil discourse are subjects not easily defined for study; for additional information on these concepts and how they inform the assessment, read:<\/p>\n The literature that you will select and discuss in this assessment is <\/span>totally distinct<\/em> <\/span>from those sources that you located and discussed in Assessment 2, meaning that you will need to find additional scholarly sources for this assessment. However, the skills you employed in that assessment will apply here. You will need to find at least five scholarly sources. Up to two of these can be seminal works and the remaining must be peer-reviewed articles no older than seven years.<\/p>\n You may use the following to give you an idea of what a Proficient or higher rating on the scoring guide would look like: <\/span>Assessment 3 Exemplar [PDF]<\/a>.<\/p>\n When writing this literature review, be sure to:<\/p>\n Organize your paper with the following sections:<\/p>\n Title page<\/span><\/p>\n Introduction<\/span><\/p>\n Overview of Issues<\/span><\/p>\n Review of the Literature<\/span><\/p>\n Conclusion<\/span><\/p>\n References<\/span><\/p>\n You are required to complete the Writing Revision Matrix after receiving feedback for Assessment 3 from your instructor or other resources. You will use this document when completing Assessment 4, where you will chronicle your writing skills development throughout the course. This matrix provides space for you to insert feedback received at specific points in your assessment and note revision ideas and plans.<\/p>\n In addition to the requirements outlined above, your assessment should meet the following:<\/p>\n By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:<\/p>\n Write a 5-7 page analysis of ethical behavior, diversity, and civil discourse as they relate to your educational specialization.
