Reflective Project Guide 
  • The reflective project focuses on an ethical dilemma of an issue directly linked to the student’s career‑related study.​
  • Students undertake research and analysis on the chosen ethical dilemma. This research will include consultation with the local and/or global community.
  • Linking the reflective project to the career-related studies of students provides a way for them to explore ethical dilemmas in real-life situations.
What is an “ethical dilemma”?
  • Within an ethical dimension there are ethical dilemmas. An ethical dilemma is a choice between two (or more) conflicting moral perspectives where neither provides a perfect solution.
  • In philosophical terms, an ethical dilemma is something to which, whatever a person’s views, there is no right or wrong answer.
  • Issues that involve conflicts of interest in the workplace or at a societal level are often referred to as ethical dilemmas.

Where could you find relevant data?
This could and should come from multiple sources, such as:

• statistics from reputable sources (for example, those provided by government organizations, professional organizations and non-governmental organizations)
• an interview conducted with an authority or an expert on the issue in question This could be conducted by yourself or be an interview that has been published elsewhere.
• an essay, article or book on the subject
• documentaries
• credible internet sites (for example, those provided by universities, museums, non-governmental organizations and the like). However, you must exercise some critical judgment when using websites to ensure that the information you use is relevant and credible.
