Paper A: Application of a decision making framework to an IT-related ethical issue. For this assignment, you are given an opportunity to explore and apply a decision making framework to an IT-related ethical issue. A framework provides a methodical and systematic approach for decision making . UMUC Module 2 - Methods of Ethical Analysis (see LEO Content – Readings for week 2) describes three structured frameworks that may be used for ethical analysis, namely Reynolds Seven-Step Approach, Kidder’s Nine Steps, and Spinello’s Seven-Step Process . There are several ways described in UMUC Module 2 to systematically approach an ethical dilemma , and while each of the frameworks described has its merits, each will result in an ethical decision if straightforwardly and honestly applied. In addition, you will want to consider the ethical theories described in Module 1 – Introduction to Theoretical Ethical Frameworks (see LEO Content – Readings for week 1) which help decision makers find the right balance concerning the acceptability of and justification for their actions. A separate write-up of the ethical theory that supports your decision is part of the following requirements. For this paper, the following elements must be addressed: Describe a current IT-related ethical issue : Since this is a paper exercise, not a real-time situation, you may want to construct a brief scenario where this issue comes into play, and thus causes an ethical dilemma. The dilemma may affect you, your family, your job, or your company; or it may be a matter of public policy or law that affects the general populace. See the list below for a list of suggested issues, which may be a source of ethical dilemmas . Define a concise problem statement that is extracted from the above description or scenario. It is best if you define a specific problem caused by the dilemma, that needs a specific ethical decision to be made, that will solve the dilemma . Be aware that if it is a matter of public policy or law, that it may require a regulatory body or congressional approval to take action to implement a solution. Analyze your problem using one of the structured decision-making frameworks chosen from Module 2. Make sure that you identify the decision-making framework utilized. In addition, the steps in the decision-making framework selected must be used as major headings in the Analysis section. Consider and state the impact of the decision that you made on an individual, an organization, stakeholders, customers suppliers, and the environment, as applicable! State and discuss the applicable ethical theory from Module 1 that supports your decision. Concerning your paper: Prepare a minimum 3- 5 page, double-spaced paper and submit it to the LEO Assignments Module as an attached Microsoft Word file. Provide appropriate American Psychological Association (APA) source citations for all sources you use . In addition to critical thinking and analysis skills, you.

Review the Huston (2010) article listed under reading assignments. Which skills described for the Nurse Leader in the year 2020 are important now? Explain your rationale and provide an example from your practice setting (or from your prelicensure program) to support it. This is the article: eynote speaker at the conference, American nursing professor and former president of the international honour society of nursing, Sigma Theta Tau, Carol Huston, painted a picture of a brave new nursing world in 2020, in her opening presentation, Preparing nurse leaders for 2020. She outlined eight leadership competencies every nurse leader would need in the 2020. The first was a global perspective. “Every health care issue has to be looked at from a global perspective. We used to think pandemics were confined to developing countries. We now know they are just one short flight away.” There was a more urgent need for international standards for basic nursing education. The nursing shortage was one of the most serious threats to global health, she said, and it would get significantly worse before it got better. Nurse migration was a global problem. (See news p7.) The second leadership competency was better use of technology to connect people. Technology had driven so many changes already in health care but knowledge and information acquisition and distribution was going to multiply exponentially. “Forty percent of what we know today will be obsolete in three years,” Huston said. She listed a range of technological developments that would have a major impact on health care in the next 20 years. By 2030 diagnostic body scans, which could identify underlying pathology, would become part of showering. Improvements in body scanning technology would mean there would be no need for invasive surgery or tests. “Nano bots” circulating in the blood stream would identify disease processes and begin to repair them. Gene therapy would mean what was now untreatable would be treatable and could see cancer abolished completely within two decades. Stem cell therapy would eliminate the need for organ transplants “as we will grow new organs. It is predicted we will be able to grow heart, kidneys and livers by 2020. There are already clinical trials underway growing new teeth – instead of dentures you would grow you own new teeth.” Merging of the human and the machine would advance significantly and by 2020 there would be pancreatic pacemakers for diabetics and the technology to enable blind people to see and deaf people to hear. Robotics would continue to develop, with physical service robots which could wash patients and help feed and carry patients. There was the potential for the use of robots in therapeutic roles.
