4 Credits: Behavioral Ethics
Course Description
With the explosion of technology over the past thirty years, one fair question is, “what are the ethical considerations and impacts related to this technology?” Of course, practical technology issues such as data privacy and security undoubtedly carry ethical considerations. However, technology also affects the ethics associated with work-life balance, the digital divide, training needs, copyrights, and fraud, to name a few.
This course will teach you about “technoethics” and its implications for individuals and organizations. To that end, you will explore many current and emerging issues associated with ethics and technology, such as copyrights, cybercrimes, privacy versus security, and geo-tracking technologies. Given the profound implications of ethics and technology, this could be the most impactful session you will ever attend.
Learning Objectives
Upon completing this course, you should be able to:
- Distinguish between morals and ethics
- Define “technoethics” and identify examples of business ethics issues and how they are affected by technology
- Recognize the influence of ethics requirements in Codes of Conduct
- List at least five examples of potential ethical issues associated with leading technologies today
