DAY 68 May 18 Ethical Schools of Thought

In my absence today, please continue to work through Chapter 13 on the information below (this assumes, of course, that you have completed your work through Chapter 12 already!):

Chapter 13.  Your task now is to explain the 11 major schools of thoughts on the question of living a good life.  For each (Buddhism, Confucianism, Hedonism, Stoicism, Virtue Ethics, Thomists, Existentialism, Divine Command Theory, Utilitarianism, Egoism, Intuitionism, Post-modernism) school of thought make an organizer in your notes with the sub-headings below. At first you can each have a go at one of these schools of thought on chart paper and share it with the class, then tackle them all on your own for your notebook.

  • School of Thought
    •  Brief History
    •  Main proponents
  •  Summary of  the School's Response
    •  Strengths of the Response
    • Weaknesses of the Response
