Instruction:
SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS. Analyze the story below and answer the questions that
follows.
Robert is a student in a school where his mother is one of the officials in the administration.
Recently, three of his classmates posted a web site that openly attacks some of the teachers and
students, using explicit and offensive language. It even goes as far as predicting which gay
students will be the first to die of AIDS. Remarks about several teachers are offensive and
aggressive to the point that names were dropped and invading their personal lives like family
problems and love life. The site also includes disgusting graphics.
Several weeks ago Robert learned the identities of the three students who created the
website when one of them accidentally said something to him in a conversation. The other two
quickly talked to Robert and pressured him not to reveal their names. He agreed, not thinking
much about it at the time. Robert used to be close to one of the three students, but that friendship
has faded.
Now, the school principal has obtained a software that allows him to identify each person
who has visited the website. He is asking students to come forward with the names of the creators
of the site, and if no one does, he is going to question each student who visited the site. Robert is
one of those who did visit the site. He realizes he may be the only student who knows the names
of the three kids who created the site. He can lie and say he doesn’t know, or he can break his
promise not to tell.
Robert has always thought of himself as an ethical person with a pretty clear sense of
right and wrong. Right now, however, he feels that either choice will end in disaster. What should
Robert do?
1. What do you consider to be Robert’s responsibility?
His responsibility is to speak up and tell principal the identities of three students.
2. A common definition used to describe an ethical choice is a “choice between two rights.” How
might you apply this to Robert’s situation?
The choice may result differently but telling the truth is the right thing to do.
3. What would you do if you were in Robert’s place? How would that choice affect the others in
this case?
If I were on Robert’s situation, I would reveal their names and tell the principal. I may
have promised, but being honest and telling the truth, could be the best thing to do in this
situation.
4. Have you or someone you know ever been in a situation where you were expected to turn
someone in? Share what that was like.
When I were in 10th grade, it was our exam day and I caught some of my classmates
opened their notes for them to answer the questions perfectly. I saw them but I acted blind
because I don’t want them to be mad at me until one of my classmates stood up to speak
and tell our teacher what was happening during exams. They got called out and literally
got mad at my classmate after. I know that they learned and admitted their mistakes.
5. Is there ever a point where the good of a community is more important to honor than the good of
an individual relationship? Explain.
Yes, if it is the right thing to do why not. You will get nothing if you keep on tolerating
someone just for the sake of good ‘relationship’.
