Write a brief commentary (a minimum of 200 words) on the online lecture posted in “Weekly Notes”. The commentary should be based on your own reflections. As such, it is intended to express your own authentic and autonomous voice – a voice that an ethicist depends on for the purpose of engaging in analysis and assessment.
Needless to say, the more controversial a particular ethics issue, dilemma or challenge is, the more difficult it may be to engage in the debate and dispute simply because of the nature of the issue, dilemma or challenge (cf. controversial).
In this assignment, there are no “right” or “wrong” responses. For the same reason, this assignment earns you full credit as long as you submit your commentary by the deadline. The only criteria are (1) academic relevancy (that your commentary addresses biomedical ethics) and (2) numerical adequacy (that you do not write less than 200 words). The 200 words are constitute the lower word limit; the upper word limit is 500 words.
