Mock Exam: ethics, responsibility, and sustainability

What is not in the ppt:

 About readings: take some inspiration, read some of it, to get to know about
the subject, not know them by heart

 Try to split the questions up in parts: analyse the information, frameworks to
be used, the first part of your question should be to explain the framework,
then you can move on to the answer for this case

 About “recommendations” (will always be asked on the exam): not easy to
correct but it is based on how thorough you are, they want the answer to be
doable, practical, realistic, etc… it is always interesting to give answers based
on the learnings from other chapters, this gives them the clue that you know
the material; try to think of the course name and give answers ethically,
responsibly, etc.

 They will always give a company for the case, don’t have to know in detail
what they do but just their overall business


 For first question: explain framework theoretically first, then apply it, what
should the government/companies have done, then further recommendations,
but be specific, who should do it, in what way, … keep in mind there is not one
ultimate answer, but the framework should be correct  using other
framework will result in no points
o Make the right distinction between Bengali vs European government
o Explain difference between duty and responsibility
o Don’t just give bullet points with no further explanation for
recommendations
