decision is taken and if any one disagrees discussion continues. Sometimes compromises

are also made to fit the best suited solution.2. Decision of majority, i.e. democracy in decision making and majority is authority.

keeping in mind needs of all and give recommendations.4. Getting experts help, i.e. if no one from the team can handle the issue or fix the problem

extra help is hired to resolve the issue.

Case Study 5.2

1. Mostly I use Google as it has wider database and very common one.

2. Results show similar pattern as given in case study but as I have not use meta-

search engine before so cannot give expert opinion.

Case Study 5.3As per the case studies show there is no wrong and right decision. In every situation ethics

always are applied according to the context of the situation and one decision which is consideredright in any situation can be ethically considered unethical in other situations.

For example as per situation in first scenario it is difficult to decide that what should be

decision as using duty based ethics it is professors duty to report the incident as soon as he cameto know about this. But on the other hand if student was going through some sort of extreme

problem can result in relaxation in rules, but even then such practice should be ruled out and

students should be encouraged to come forward to discuss their problems.Similarly, in second situation although it is employees duty to think about the companys

benefit but here decision making is difficult as in comparison to companys benefit onstake is

wellbeing of greater community.
