“Ethical Considerations in Self-Driving Technology: A Case Study Analysis”
Instructions
For this case study, you will imagine that you are an engineer for a company that is developing self-driving technology for automobiles. Your technology will allow a vehicle to be driven without a driver under ordinary conditions. The vehicle will stay in its lane, keep a safe distance to other vehicles, stop at red lights and stop signs, and will not exceed posted speed limits.
However, as you know, everyday driving, especially in congested urban areas, is rarely ordinary. Delivery vehicles frequently double-park and block off lanes, people driving motorized scooters and e-bikes routinely ignore stoplights, and pedestrians frequently cross the street without paying attention. To be safe and effective, your technology must be able to deal with all of these nonroutine driving tasks.
Imagine this scenario. A vehicle using your self-driving technology is proceeding down a street in a large city late at night. It is carrying three passengers in the back seat. The vehicle is going at a speed of 25 miles per hour, which is the posted speed limit in this area. The vehicle approaches an intersection and the light is green. Suddenly, someone runs directly in front of the vehicle. It is too late to stop.
Your self-driving technology must make a choice.
Swerve right. If this choice is taken, the vehicle will smash into a parked car, avoiding the pedestrian, but damaging two vehicles and possibly injuring the vehicle’s occupants.
Swerve left. If this choice is taken, the vehicle will move into oncoming traffic from the other side of the road, avoiding the pedestrian but possibly causing a head-on collision with another vehicle.
Continue straight. Your vehicle will apply the brakes but will not stop in time to avoid hitting the pedestrian. The pedestrian will be injured, perhaps fatally.
In your response to this case study, answer the following questions.
Which choice would your technology make and why?
What ethical considerations are most important in this situation?
As the designer of this self-driving technology, is your sole ethical responsibility to the occupants of the vehicles that use it? Why or why not?
What if there was only one person in the self-driving vehicle, and there were three pedestrians? Would this change the decision your technology would make? Why or why not?

“The Southern Christian Leadership Conference: Fighting for Civil Rights and Promoting Nonviolent Protest”
The Southern Christian Leadership Conference was a Civil rights organization founded in 1957. The (SCLC) mission was to “redeem the soul of America”. Also, the (SCLC) moved the national conscience to support civil rights initiatives. The (SCLC) motto was “Not one hair of one head of one white person shall be harmed”. The (SCLC) was known for being a major participant in the civil rights movement in the 1950s and 1960s. Also, the (SCLC) was an offshoot of the Montgomery Improvement Association (MIA). Cause of that (SCLC) successfully staged a 381-day boycott of Montgomery Alabama’s segregated bus system. The (SCLC) was founded in 1957 by Martin Luther King Jr., Bayard Rustin, Ralph Abernathy, Fred Shuttlesworth, and other protest groups in the South. Some challenges that the (SCLC) faced were leadership battles, financial troubles, internal fends, and shrinking memberships. Charles Steele Jr. was the president during this time when the (SCLC) had happened. An accomplishment that the (SCLC) did, was help promote the civil rights March on Washington in 1963. Also, the (SCLC) organized large, nonviolent protests in places like Birmingham and Selam.
Not only that the (SCLC) had a less well-known component called the Citizenship Education Program (CEP), which provided a voter education program for potential black voters. One thing that Martin Luther King Jr. did to help the (SCLC) was lecture in all parts of the country and discuss race-related issues with religious and civil rights leaders. The (SCLC) ended shortly after the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. on April 4, 1968, so Abernathy into the organization’s presidency. Since Abernathy could not match King’s leadership talents like King’s speech, he had difficulty with fundraising, which led to the (SCLC) marked decline in influence. -

Fostering a Collaborative Culture: Creating Effective Teacher Teams
Please read Chapter Two before starting on the assignment. Complete the attached document on Fostering a Collaborative Culture. You will need a minimum of 25 teachers from any grade k-12 teaching in various subject areas. If your current school’s teacher roster meets the requirements, this part of the can be based on your current school roster, or you can create a roster of a minimum of 25 teachers teaching various subjects and grade levels. The roster can be imaginary as long as it meets the requirements.
Read chapter two in the Frequently Asked Questions book before placing teachers in groups; it guides and helps explain why you placed teachers on specific teams. You do not explain why each teacher is in the group, instead use the guidelines from Chapter 2 to explain the grouping used.
Numbers 2-5 will also connect with Chapter 2; your response will show how the information read is applied.
This is not a subject-specific assignment. You will add additional boxes as needed to list all teachers. Explanations of why teachers are groups should align with Chapter 2. Do not explain why each individual teacher is in the group. Please do not change the template.
