Scenario Analysis
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Establish who is involved -- who the actors are. Describe the ethical problem from the viewpoint of each of these people. Contrast these views. Construct an open situation where each party is aware of the other. Outline the major ethical problem and suggest a way to resolve the current problem and to ensure it is unlikely to occur again
Key thinking point: Virtual space is often anonymous, and often it is useful to consider an analogous real-world situation.
