-----MODULE 2-----
1. This is about the student handbook on computing for the students of Virginia University (Please surf for it). Read and understand their handbook .
If you are to become a part of the VSU team who will formulate a handbook like that of Virginia University, give at least 2 policies that you want to be implemented in VSU or even just for CS students like you, regarding computing. Also include sanction or sort of punishment to those who will violate the said policy.
UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA STUDENT POLICIES:
UVa-Wise Policies - alcohol/drugs, copyright policy for students, degree revocation, domestic animal & wildlife management, fishing, grievance procedure, hazing, involuntary withdrawal, parental notification policy, pets, sexual/discriminatory harassment, skateboarding, smoking, solicitation & salesmen, students exhibiting suicidal tendencies or behaviors, and weapons storage.
Ans.
If I have a chance to become a part of the VSU team who will formulate a handbook I will implement:
First policy, not wearing of identification(ID) is prohibited, because some of our student are not wearing personal ID's. There are many situation that students who are not wearing their ID's cannot enter a particular building such as Administration building or entering any seminars.
SANCTION AND PUNISHMENT : If they violate the said policy student cannot enter the university. It's the student's responsibility to wear their proper ID to avoid the punishment and if they caught within the campus he/she will be given a first and second warning by USSO. In the first warning, he/she will be reminded that if caught he/she will be suspended for 1 week, second warning will be suspended for 1 week.
Second policy, Posting of answers on the personal web, it is highly prohibited especially in exams and quizzes.
SANCTION AND PUNISHMENT : If they caught or found out that they violate the policy he/she will be given a first warning to delete any information/answer on the web. If they fail to do the first warning the instructor/teacher will marked 5.0 grade on his/her subject.
2. According to the definition of ethics, it can be connected to the norms or custom of the society. What could be ethical to one could be unethical to another. If this is the case, in which ethics seem to be subjective in nature, why is there a need to study computer ethics at all? Support your opinion with facts.
Ans.
Ethics can be connected to the norms or custom of the society because their a custom that can be ethical on a society. There is still a need to study computer ethics even if ethics seems to be subjective in nature because each type of ethics deals with the scope and purpose that raise the interest in and awareness of the issues, and to think about how computer technology may be used to benefit and not to harm, and to raise the quality of life of all members of our society. Computer ethics deals with the proper usage of telecommunications and data storage. With the knowledge of an individual pertaining to computer ethics, he/she will not do anything that against the codes of computer ethics.
3. There are 4 types of non-jural law. Divine, natural, moral and physical. If you are to practice just one type of the non-jural law for the entire existence of your life, what would it be and why?
Ans.
If I were to practice just one type of non-jural law for the existence of my life, it would be the Divine Law. If you practice Divine law you can also able to practice the others as well because in Natural and Physical laws are those that are believed to be the morally righteous laws believed to have been the will of a greater power than humans. This does not necessarily mean that it is the will of God. Above all laws, Divine law encompasses all the other law.
