For the first part of this phase apply two decision-making models  described by Hammaker and Knadig (2017) to explain why the action being  considered is ethical or unethical (based upon your issue and thesis  statement). As part of the ethical decision-making process evaluate why  the two models are a valid way to decide whether an action or situation  is ethical or unethical. In addition, for both models discuss its  strengths and limitations towards decision-making.

Models for Decision-Making 

Social Media Model

Utility Model

Rights Model

Exceptions Model

• Choices Model
• Justice Model
• Common Good Model
• Virtue Model
• **Use appropriate APA headings when applying both models.
• Conclusion
• For the second part of this phase remind the audience of your  position and supporting evidence.  Summarize the most important details  from your research and try for the last time to try to convince the  audience. The conclusion should illustrate that you have thought  critically and analytically about the ethical issue.
• Consider these pointers when writing the conclusion:

Your conclusion should not simply restate your intro paragraph.  If your conclusion says almost the exact same thing as your  introduction, it may indicate that you have not done enough critical  thinking during the course of your research project.

Your conclusion should tell us why we should care about your  research. What is the significance of your claim? Why is it important to  you as the writer or to the reader/audience? What information 

should you or the audience take away from this?

Vivid, concrete language is as important in a conclusion as it  is elsewhere–perhaps more essential, since the conclusion determines  the audience’s final impression of your research. Do not leave them with  the impression that your position was vague or unsure.

It’s fine to introduce new information or quotations in your  conclusions, if the new points grow from your argument. New points might  be more general, answering the “so what” question; they might be quite  specific. Just avoid making new claims that need lots of additional  support.

The conclusion of your research project should be at least four to five paragraphs with support.

Length:  5 to 6 pages (can exceed the minimum  length requirement). Utilize substantial references (i.e. scholarly  resources, newspapers, books, PBSC library databases, Google Scholar,  etc.) and complete in-text citations-APA style.
