Update on 3.4 ethics 

We have completed marking for the assessment task (Yes, we did this over our holiday break for you). We are in the process of completing grade boundary work where any students who sit in between a grade will be cross checked and their work discussed for a final grade. While there was some pleasing work seen in this first assessment task, there were also areas of work that were dissapointing. Completion of assessment tasks requires some real attention this term and we will be implementing strict assessment working time. This will be in assessment conditions to ensure everyone is completing their set out weekly checkpoints. It is worth noting that students who not achieved in this task also missed checkpoints over the time given. Proof reading is also a concern as it is very clear that there has not been proof reading completed on assessment work. We will unpack this with each of you in person when we return your grades to you as some point this week. 

NOTE: If any student has not achieved in the 3.4 ethics assessment task, everyone is enrolled into the 3.2 international health issues external so you are still eligible and able to gain 15 credits from HEA3 if you pass the remaining three assessment tasks. 

For those of you completing a resubmission

• I have two "for" and two "against" GROUP perspectives (that are a group and  NOT AN INDIVIDUAL)

• I have explained their attitudes, values and beliefs for each perspective

• I have made links to ethical principles and approaches for each perspective (This is not for achieved)

• I have discussed the implications as a result of the current law for personal, interpersonal and societal (clear understanding of the different between each. We should not see these merge. You MUST be clear and reflect a clear understanding of PERSONAL, INTERPERSONAL AND SOCIETAL. Many of you have got these incorrect. 

These implications should be reflecting 

• The implications as a result of the current law in NZ. So for Designer babies this means it is prohibitied in New Zealand and for Ethnic based prioritisation (Equity adjustor score) was removed.
