Activity #4: Model Behavior
Timeframe: 30 minutes
Skills Required/Ethical Principles Involved: Communication, Integrity, Accountability, Transparency, Viability
Supplies: Paper, pens/pencils
Description: This activity encourages students to reflect on the behavior of famous individuals and discuss the ethicality of their actions.
Process: Separate students into small groups of three to five and ask students to identify a famous individual (e.g., a celebrity, politician, book or TV character, etc.) who personifies the Daniels Fund Ethics Initiative principles. Ask students to provide specific examples of how that person has demonstrated several different ethical principles, and allow groups to share their individuals and examples with the class. Then, ask students to identify a famous individual who went from stardom and success to ruin based on their unethical behavior. Ensure students connect the famous individual’s improper behavior to specific ethical principles. Allow the groups to share their individuals and examples with the class.
Wrap-Up: Discuss common themes among the ethical role models—What behaviors did they share? Were they all from a particular profession? What made them notable? Discuss common themes among the unethical individuals—Were they connected in any way? Were actions illegal or simply unethical? Was there one ethical principle that stood out from the others?
