Through observation and research, we begin to understand the world around us. Consider research you have read about or been a part of: Was the scientific method followed? How? What ethical considerations are important to research?

Andrew, a highly qualified and experienced software developer, has just started work with a government health department on a project that has been underway for about 9 months. He is replacing a novice developer who has decided to move on to a new project with another organisation. Even though the current system is incomplete, it has is being used with 'live' data. On analysing what's been done so far, Andrew discovers that the system is poorly designed and is riddled with bugs due to the former developer's lack of expertise, and that the choice of technologies are incompatible with the department's infrastructure, leading to corruptions and loss of financial data on a daily basis. In fact, much of Andrew's time is initially spent unsuccessfully attempting to recover corrupted data. His vast experience leads him to the conclusion that the system is so unstable that it will eventually corrupt beyond repair and that all its data will become unrecoverable. He therefore advises the supervisor of his findings and recommends that the system be redeveloped using appropriate technologies and quality control measures. He indicates that the entire redevelopment effort will take less than 6 weeks. The supervisor rejects Andrew's recommendation, stating that their IT Department will not agree to a change in technology, and directs Andrew to complete the project using the existing technologies. What should Andrew do?

Recall a time in a co-op placement, a summer job, an internship, a student club, a student team project, etc. when your values conflicted with what you were expected to do in a particular, nontrivial decision, and you spoke up and acted to resolve the conflict.

Consider the following and write down your thoughts:

• What did you do, and what was the impact?
• What motivated you to speak up and act? Identify the values that conflicted with what you were expected to do.
• How satisfied are you? How would you like to have responded? (This question is not about rejecting or defending past actions but rather about imagining your Ideal Scenario.)
• What would have made it even easier for you to speak/act?
  • Things within your own control
  • Things within the control of others

Part 2

Recall a time in a co-op placement, a summer job, an internship, a student club, a student team project, etc. when your values conflicted with what you were expected to do in a particular, nontrivial decision, and you did not speak up or act to resolve the conflict.

Consider the following and write down your thoughts:

• What happened, and what was the impact?
• Why didn’t you speak up or act? Identify the values that conflicted with what you were expected to do.
• How satisfied are you? How would you like to have responded? (This question is not about rejecting or defending past actions but rather about imagining your Ideal Scenario.)
• What would have made it easier for you to speak/act?
  • Things within your own control
  • Things within the control of others

Compare how your responded to these two situations to draw a conclusion about when you tend to act on your values, and what is necessary for you to do so

I've noticed that there's this misconception that folks who disagree with our general classroom-perspective are considered uneducated. This includes Dennis (who rejected life-saving measures due to religious reasons) or animal rights stakeholders (like the trauma surgeon).

There's a lot of science that shows us that facts (read: education) don't help to change people's minds

Now consider the following questions for this discussion:

When talking with someone you know really well, what kind of things do you get out of that interaction? Think along the lines of empathy, understanding, companionship, feeling listened to.

How does your communication style change when trying to change someone's mind? What do you get out of being "right"? Do you think the person gets something out of being "wrong"?

What's it like to be on the other side of the conversation when someone is trying to convince you of something?

How might we try to communicate more effectively around these controversial subjects?
