Question

Maria is the student in your clinical laboratory science class that you as a teacher think least likely to make a good health care provider. Although very bright, she comes from a rough and tumble background, and while she is making satisfactory progress your class, she is also the one who appears to be cutting the most corners. On the way out of the office, you leave your office open and final test on your desk. Maria works in the building as a work-study student. She knows that you have gone for the day and noticed that the door is open . She enters your office and sees the test. It would be so easy to copy the test, she thinks as she moves toward it. However, at the last moment, she stops and thinks to herself that she knows she is prepared for the test. She doesn’t need the grief if she should ace the test and someone sees her leave the office. She backs out the office, looks to be sure that no one has seen her, and locks the door. She thinks to herself, “If I can’t see the test, I will be sure that no one else will either.”

                 Arthur is the model student to your clinical laboratory class. You often day dream of the perfect class and every seat the student who is sitting there looks like Arthur. On the way out of the office, you leave your office open and final test on your desk. Arthur works in the building as a work-study student. He knows that you have gone for the day and noticed that the door is o pen. He enters your office and sees the test. Arthur sees that the test is on the desk, he backs out of the office and locks it. He thinks, I will warn the instructor to be more careful with the door. It really did not occur to him to copy the test, although he also feels well prepared.

Answer 1

• According to my opinion, maria is the noble one. Because maria knows that i went for the day and i didn't come back soon. then also she didn't sees the test. she was honest and also confident about herselves about the test.
• she was well prepared for the test and do not want to copy the test even she got a chance to copy.
• This shows that she was honest.
• I strongly disagree that arthur is the noble one
• because when he got a chance to see the test, he tried to copy even he didnot copy the full test. that shows that he was not noble as maria.
• After seeing the test, maria came out of the laboratory and closed the door. she did not tell this thing to anyone in her classroom. because she wants nobody to copy the test. she was such a good and noble girl.
• Arthur tried to see the test. he entered the office and sees the test. then he walk out of the office and locked it.
• according to me maria is the noble one as compared to arthur.
