Introduction: This project has two components. 1) Personal Ethics Statement: We ask you to reflect on what ethics means to you personally. It is critical that you use numerous personal examples from your actual life and NOT someone else's ideas. This project is graded based on your giving an honest assessment of what you think about ethics by reflecting on the questions below. As you write, don't worry about what you think your professor would or would not like. This is your ethics statement. So, give a truthful response to the questions. As long as your text answers the questions from your personal point of view and it is supported with examples from your life it is done well - the content (whether it is positive, negative, whether it is in line with the social norms, etc.) will NOT impact your grade. Note: You are NOT required to do any research for this paper. You need to write, in your own words, what is true for you. 2) Reflection on the CARL test: We'd like you to reflect on your CARL test results. What did you learn? Were the results as expected or were you surprised? Given the test results, what are the areas you would like to improve in? How are you planning to invest in this improvement?
Ethics Project Paper Content Guidelines: Your paper should include the following 6 sections. Begin each section with these BOLD headings and respond in your own words:
Introduction: Short paragraph introducing what this paper is about.
Personal: Define ethics in your own words; explain your personal perspective about ethics, where your ethical views originated from and why ethics is, or is not, important to you (use examples from your personal life to explain your position).
Career: Now that you have considered ethics personally, address in your own words how you see ethics applied in organizations (corporate or other work settings) and discuss why you believe this is important, or not important, to your career. Give examples from your personal experience or knowledge of companies and their ethics protocols (including any work or non-work experiences).
Society: Reflect on is how ethics is applied across society. Describe in your own words the importance of, or the lack of, ethics in the global world. Give examples from your persona experience that would reflect your point of view; if you can relate this to your home country, even better.Conclusion Personal Ethics Statement: Short paragraph tying the three questions together with any conclusions you believe others would find helpful in understanding your perspective on this subject.

Reflection on CARL test: In one paragraph, explain what you learned about yourself from the CARL self-assessment. Were there any surprising results? Given the test results, are there any areas you would like to work on and improve? If yes, how will you do that? If no, please explain why you think improvement is not necessary.
