SUMMARIZE – In paragraph one give a summary of the article\/person\/character, in case I am not familiar with them.
\nETHICAL ISSUE – State the ethical issue that person faced \u2013 Use proper format – Make it bold print and a SHOULD QUESTION.
\nAPPLICATION – Using the steps outlined in your text, apply each step to the situation. Fully show your application. Use a chart as seen in your text.
\nHelpful hint – Don’t forget if a stakeholder is more than one person (a group, a family, a business etc.) estimate how many are in the group and multiply the happiness number you generated by the number of persons in the group (see text).
\nCONCLUSION (last step in the application) – Choose the best option. If that person were a true Act Utilitarian – what would that person have done. What would the Utilitarian theory say is the morally right or best thing to do?<\/p>\n
Be sure to see Sample Format below<\/p>\n
SAMPLE FORMAT<\/p>\n

\nHelpful Hints
