2. What are the three most significant lessons you got from this module? Why are they
significant?
a) One of the methodological approaches in ethical decision making that I would like to
exercise is descriptive level. There is no judgement on how an individual would act
or behave in a particular situation because we attempt to understand the phenomena
behind their nature.
I could relate this lesson with integrating “Social Investigation & Class Analysis” in
our daily lives because we are able to investigate the conditions of the society and
grasp an understanding on how to correctly analyze the classes. Mao Zedong quoted
that, “No investigation, no right to speak” which implies that if we lack evidences to
support our claim, we should just keep quiet to avoid spreading misinformation. An
example would be vote-buying. By means of SICA, we will be able to have sufficient
and correct information on why the poor accept money from politicians even if “vote
buying” and “receiving money” is violative.
3. These three lessons will guide me in the process of my decision making. Through the
means of sociological observation, I would be able to investigate and study the factors on
why human beings act or behave in a certain way. In the middle ground, I would be able
to keep my emotions in check while rationalizing my situation. Lastly, it is important to
be consistent to avoid being biased.
