Ethics Assignment – Miss Evers’ Boys and Ethical Issues in Research

Ethics Assignment – Miss Evers’ Boys and Ethical Issues in Research

Students will watch the movie “Miss Evers’ Boys” about a landmark government study carried out over several decades by the United States government and the outstanding ethical issues surrounding it. Students will also locate another example of a research study that violated ethical standards.

The student will reflect upon these studies and respond to the rubric. Students may watch the movie with classmates, but the assignment should reflect each student’s individual thoughts and be in their own words.

It is expected that the student will consult additional resources to more fully explore the questions in the ethics reflection assignment.

This assignment is written as a paper, not just a document with answers to the questions. It must be in APA format including cover page, paper, and reference page. There is not a minimum number of pages required, should be of sufficient length to thoughtfully address the questions in the assignment. See APA Format in the Additional Items and Policies section after the Course Calendar in this Syllabus. The paper will be submitted through Turnitin and should have a green score to reflect absence of plagiarism.
