The Mid-term essay is a five-paragraph essay written in APA format in about two to three pages, NOT including the title and references pages, at approximately(1000 words) long.
As usual, I’ll evaluate your papers mainly by the following criteria:
an understanding of the assigned material
originality of your ideas,
development of thoughts, and
style of writing.
Make sure you give yourself enough time to carefully revise and edit your paper—that can make the difference between an ‘okay’ and an ‘excellent’ paper.
Edward is taking his daily walk near the train tracks when he notices that the train that is approaching is out of control. Edward sees what has happened: the train driver saw five workmen ahead on the tracks and slammed on the brakes, but the brakes failed, and the driver fainted. The train is now rushing toward the five men; the banks are so steep that they will not be able to get off the track in time. Fortunately, Edward is standing next to a switch, which he can throw, that will turn the train onto a sidetrack. Unfortunately, there is one person standing on the sidetrack with his back turned. Edward can throw the switch, killing the one, or he can refrain from doing this, letting the five die. Remember, Edward did not build the train, nor is he responsible for its current predicament. However, if he pulls the switch, he is both intervening and making a judgment regarding human value. Take this into account when writing your essay. There is a reason this is considered a “moral dilemma.”
Incorporating what you have learned from ethics, answer the following questions.
1. “Do you think Edward should throw the switch? Why?”
2. Would a Utilitarian agree? Why?
3. Would a Kantian agree? Why?
4. What do you believe is the best option “What is The Good?” Why?
