TWU The Essentials of Ethics in Professionalism The VW Diesel Scandal Discussion
I’m trying to study for my Business course and I need some help to understand this question.
1. Read the attached Ethics-II.pdf which continues the discussion on what Ethics mean in the context of software engineering.
Then proceed to answer the questions inside the reading:
- Questions 2.1 and 2.2
- Questions 3.1 and 3.2
- Question 4.1
Because for many ethics questions there is no absolutely right or wrong answers as such, your responses will be graded based on completeness and thoughtfulness as opposed to rote or perfunctory ones. There are three grade levels for this assignment based on your responses to all the questions: 20 (no reasoning in responses), 35 (minimal to little reasoning), and 50 (sufficient reasoning and consideration).
Write your answers in a Word file using Times New Roman font (no smaller than 10 pt but no bigger than 12 pt), single spacing, 1″ margins on all sides.
2. Read the attached article: “The Mythical Man-Month“, by Frederick Brooks, extracts from The Mythical Man Month book, 1975. Tell us something about what you learn from this article. Your posting should contain at least 200 words;
