Reflection on Business Ethics Article by Wayne Norman

Paper details please proofread and edit according to the below comments from the professor and i will attach the documents needed Prof feedback on the reflection Reflections demonstrate a minimal reflection on, and personalization of, the theories, concepts, and/or strategies presented in the course materials. Viewpoints and interpretations are unsupported or supported with flawed arguments. Some evidence of personal learning provided. Evidence of application or ability to integrate across information and shows an understanding of the topic, an appreciation of some of its wider implications. Generally accurate and well informed, Misses out some issues, some minor errors. Some minor engagement with literature but low level evidence of ability to analyse relevant literature to extract understanding and learning. Restricted to basic principles. Referencing for descriptive as opposed to analytical purposes. Reflections are presented in an unsuitable and unclear form. Weak presentation, ideas and arguments poorly communicated. These documents are supposed to act as a template to help you structure your notes – they help you to write the reflection – they are not the format we want for the reflection. Check your B&S coursebook. Some good points made.

800-1000 words See ch.3, pg. 130, #2 Choose either claim (C) or (E), incorporate a “rule of 3” into it, and write an essay either supporting or contesting the new thesis you have created.

_________________________________________ Adhere to all Seven Keys, especially: Create a single-sentence thesis statement using the given claim and your own “rule of 3.” Even if you do draw on personal experience as suggested in the directives in the text, do not use the disallowed pronouns in this course. Conform to the Argumentative Essay model. That is, remember, briefly disagree with yourself in each body paragraph, then point out the flaw in that disagreement, showing yourself to be right after all. (Use the Argumentative Essay technique in all essays for this course.) Using the Rule of 3: -Quickly and easily yields an essay that is visibly organized and seemingly well-composed -Keeps the writer from “wandering around” in the subject, “wondering” what to say next. It provides a road map to follow and reduces anxiety about the writing assignment -Usually makes it unnecessary to worry about hitting the required word count. The “3” may be components, reasons, aspects, questions, problems, solutions, etc.
