1 PHILOSOPHY 2 Philosophical Ethics Michael Epperson Fall 2012 Office: Mendocino Hall #3036 M & W 12:00-1:15 Telephone: Amador Hall epperson@csus.edu Office Hours: M & W, 2:00 3:00 & by appt. Description From the course catalog: This course allows students to develop an understanding and appreciation of ethics in a broad sense. Units: 3.0. General Education Area C3: Introduction to the Humanities. Description for my section: When we strive to live as ethical individuals, or struggle to promote a more ethical society, upon what foundation do we secure our principles? Do we primarily use reason to deduce them from some deeper, more fundamental set of philosophical principles, themselves similarly deduced? Or do we primarily inherit our ethical principles from theological tradition as revealed truths rather than reasoned truths? If the answer is both, then where and how do these methods intersect? Can revealed ethical principles be analyzed rationally? Do reasoned philosophical principles involve faith-based presuppositions (e.g., belief that the universe is truly a reasonable and objectively real place)? In this course we will examine these and related questions by surveying the works of several major thinkers in philosophical ethics, from the Hellenistic period through the 20th Century. Along the way, we ll apply our analyses to several present-day ethical controversies which we will examine within the context of our readings. Requirements Our work will primarily be lecture and discussion, so both careful attention to the readings and class participation will be crucial for a lively course. Always bring your texts to class. EXAMINATIONS There will be two examinations--one take-home mid-term paper and one in-class final--as well as several unannounced short answer quizzes on the readings. All written work must comply with Philosophy Department guidelines, which can be found here. The departmental grading policy for written work can be found here. PHONES AND COMPUTERS Phones, laptops, tablets, and all other electronic multi-media devices are NOT permitted in class. For my reasoning, please refer to my colleague Dr. Merlino's excellent explanation. POWERPOINT PRESENTATIONS AND PRE-OUTLINED LECTURES I do not use these in my courses (other than for the occasional diagram, table, graph, or some other image of this kind.) The ability to listen attentively to a lecture or discussion, follow its structure, identify its key points, and take proper notes, is crucial. If this is done for you via Powerpoint slides, or lecture outlines (whether pre-distributed or written on the chalkboard), you are denied the opportunity to exercise and strengthen this ability, or develop it in the first place if you haven't

Whatever your intended profession, this is an ability that you will need, and one that many employers lament is deficient or even non-existent in recent college graduates. For other arguments against Powerpoint-based lectures, including scientific studies demonstrating their hazards, see this article by Edward Tufte, Professor Emeretus of Political Science, Computer Science and Statistics, and Graphic Design at Yale University; see also this article on the work of Dr. John Sweller, University of New South Wales. Finally, see the following paper by R. Mayer, J. Heiser, and S. Lonn, "Cognitive Constraints on Multimedia Learning: When Presenting More Material Results in Less Understanding." Journal of Educational Psychology. Vol. 93:1 (2001): ATTENDANCE Given the above, it is impossible to succeed in this course if you miss the lectures. To encourage attendance, students are permitted only 2 unexcused absences. Note: Anyone who misses 2 lectures in the first 2 weeks of class will be administratively dropped per CSUS policy. This is to make room for serious students who are attempting to add. Texts M. Cahn, P. Markie, Ethics: History, Theory, and Contemporary Issues (4th Ed.) Oxford University Press (2008): ISBN: Theaetetus by Plato, Penguin Books (1987): ISBN: The Stoic Philosophy of Seneca: Essays and Letters. Moses Hadas, trans. W. W. Norton & Company (1968): ISBN: Grading Class participation: 15% 4 or more unexcused absences results in 0%. Quizzes: 25% These are written pop quizzes on the reading assignments. Mid-term exam: 25% Final exam: 35% Academic Standards: All sources in papers must be cited and given appropriate credit. The author of any information from the Internet must be given credit; using such information without indicating the source constitutes plagiarism, as it would with print publications. Students are allowed to discuss lectures and even assignments with each other, but they must do their own work. Students are required to read the University policy on academic honesty, which can be found here. Students with Disabilities: If you have a documented disability and require accommodation or assistance with assignments, tests, attendance, note taking, etc., please see the instructor during the first week of the semester so that appropriate arrangements can be made to ensure your full participation in class. Also, you are encouraged to contact the Services for Students with Disabilities (Lassen Hall) for additional information regarding services that might be available to you.
3 California State University Sacramento Philosophy 2: Philosophical Ethics Epperson 3. Outcomes: Students will have achieved a familiarity with the works of several major thinkers in philosophical ethics, from the Classical and Hellenistic periods through the 20th Century. Students will also be familiar with the application of our analyses of these works to present-day ethical controversies examined within the context of these readings.
