REGENE G. HERNANDEZ
Instructor
What does ethics means to you?
• UTILITARIANISM
• It is founded on the ability to predict the
consequences of an action.
• VIRTUE
• The virtue ethical theory judges a person by his
character rather by an action that may deviate
from his normal behavior.
• It takes the person’s morals, reputation and
motivation into account when rating an unusual
and irregular behavior.
