This case focuses on applying ethics in a learning environment in a professional setting (Part 2). In each part, students are asked to evaluate whether various behavior scenarios are ethical or unethical and provide support for their assessment based on the principles and techniques in the ethics mindset framework.

Students are also asked to consider the consequences for the unethical behavior of the individual, and in Part 2, to expand this consideration to include the team, organization and profession. Additionally, in Part 2, students are also asked to assess the rationalizations and implications of being a peer or mentor to those committing the unethical behavior.

A video is also included that presents two hypothetical scenarios about significant consequences that can occur in the profession when unethical choices are made. This video can be shown independently of the case if desired when introducing the ethics mindset.
