Good Work Bingo

This twist on the classic game Bingo uses a board to track students’ own demonstrations and understandings of the 3 Es of Good Work: excellence, ethics, and engagement.

Two sizes of the board are provided: a smaller 3x3 board recommended for younger students, and a larger 5x5 version of the board recommended for older students.

Make a Choice

Choose a dilemma from our dilemmas database and respond to it using three different ethical frameworks, one based on what is best for the rights of all, one that is based on the rights for the most people, and one that is based on what is best to help you be the best version of you. The activity is based on the normative ethical theories of deontology, utilitariniasm, and virtue ethics.

Good Work vs. Work

Write two narratives. One should be about an individual who performs “Good Work,” and the other on an individual who just does “work.”
