CS103F: Ethical Foundations of Computer Science

Blog Post 13

Due Friday, April 26, 2019, by 11:59p

Before beginning, please watch Systemic Moral Analysis from Ethics Unwrapped.

For this blog post, we would like you to consider and then create a Code of Ethics for computer scientists. During this process, consider the conversations we have had this semester, and use those discussions to inform your ideas of what ethicality in our field looks like.

For this post, you may extend your responses past the typical 300 words to 500 words. Please do use paragraphs for each point in your Code of Ethics for organization and to make it easier on the reader.

We do expect professional presentation: your spelling and grammar should be correct---you should not be using text shorthand or emojis.

Once you have created your blog post, submit a URL to the relevant assignment on Canvas. When you submit your URL, Canvas will take a snapshot of that URL, so be sure to submit once you are finished with your blog post.

Finally, the Ethics Centre has blog posts that may be useful as examples--they are often longer than your requirement, though. One of the recent good examples is "Why Victims Remain Silent... and Then Find Their Voice".
