=How are you going to help build this wiki?=

__Our aims__

 * 1) to develop an understanding of how ethics influence the decisions that people and societies make about important issues, and
 * 2) to investigate how and why societies may approach the same issue differently.

__Your team__ will create a page in this wiki. How?
2. Make sure you have read the **Home** and **Thinking about ethics** pages. 3. **Decide** with your teammates which **ethical issue** you would like to research and which **two societies** to compare. Make sure that these two societies have taken **different approaches** to the ethical issue. ** Check with your teacher that your choices are OK. ** 4. **Research** the issue as it impacts on these two societies. 5. **On your wiki page** : - Briefly explain the issue you have chosen and why it could be described as an 'ethical issue'. - Describe **two examples** (one from each society), illustrating this issue. Include text and images as appropriate. - **Compare** how each society has responded to this ethical issue. - With reference to the Thinking about ethics page, see if you can **suggest** an explanation as to why these two societies have responded in different ways. You might have your own explanation! - Make sure that **each team member** has contributed **research** and **thinking** to your wiki page! 6. **Explore** the **other teams' wiki pages** and compare their findings with yours. 7. Go to the **Feedback** page and write a brief **reflection** on your group's experience researching and thinking about ethics. You may also like to **leave a positive review** of other teams' wiki pages!
