Prof Ed- 101: THE CHILD ADOLESCENT LEARNERS AND LEARNING PRINCIPLES

M3L1

Name: Clarence Jade R. Fernandez Section: 1-3

➢ I think Heinz should not steal the medication because the scientist is entitled to
restitution. Even if his wife is ill, his actions are still wrong. Heinz should steal the
medicine because saving a human life is a more fundamental value than another
person's property rights.
➢ Stage 6 - Heinz should steal the medicine because saving a human life is a more
fundamental value than the property rights of another person.
 Heinz should NOT steal the medicine, because others may need the medicine just
as badly, and their lives are equally significant.

➢ It falls to the sixth stage Universal Human Ethics. Stage six is a non-personal way
of thinking about the question of morality. Instead, before making a decision, a
person tries to empathize with others and see the world through their eyes. While
this appears to be simple, very few people can do it well, and even fewer can do it
consistently. Stage six also incorporates the concept of universal justice. A person
in stage six is willing to disobey unjust laws. The emphasis is on doing what is
right, regardless of the personal consequences.

I will be the one to conduct a moral dilemma interview with a certain person and
analyze the moral reasoning behind their responses and identify what level and
stage of moral development their response to the dilemma fell.
 My responded said that, Regardless of the law, everyone has the right to choose
life. The scientist is entitled to just compensation. Even if his wife is ill, his actions
are still wrong. Saving a human life is a more fundamental value than another
person's property rights.

Stage 5 Social Contract Orientation my, respondent believe that a good society is
best conceived as a social contract into which people freely enter to work for the
benefit of all. They acknowledge that different social groups within a society will have
different values, but they believe that all rational people would agree on two points.
They would all want certain basic rights, such as liberty and life, to be protected first,
and democratic procedures for changing unfair laws and improving society second.
In response to the Heinz dilemma, stage 5 respondents state unequivocally that they
do not favor breaking laws in general; laws are social contracts that we agree to
uphold until we can change them democratically. Nonetheless, the right to life of the
wife is a moral right that must be protected. As a result, stage 5 respondents
occasionally use strong language to defend Heinz's theft. It is the husband's
responsibility to save his wife. Every other standard you could use to judge his
actions pales in comparison to the fact that her life is in danger. Life is more valuable
than property.
