Ethics and the Real You – Part 1 (April 1, 2019)

This course is a “retooling” of the former course “The Code: an analytical approach.” Ethics and the Real You – Part 1 is the first in a three-part series exploring various paradigms in the worlds of interpreting and ethics. Sign Language interpreters make crucial decisions all the time in which we use our own life experiences for navigating our choices. We are in the business of facilitating the most personal and private communications. In this course, we examine the various constructs of ethics and morality. Topics will include, What ethics are not, Five sources of ethical standards/approaches, Framework for ethical decision-making, Ethics Everyday, Who is your community?, Five Questions: A Systematic Approach, Values Clarification, Consistency and Ethics, Life Stages, Conscience and Authority, Who counts?, Moral Standing, Interpreting Models, and Interpreting and Audism. Using the RID/NAD Code of Professional Conduct, as a guide, we navigate through some of the most difficult judgment calls. “Ethics and the Real You – Part 1” is a five-week course involving video lectures and activities you do in your own home or work space. This course will assist you in defining your ethics, your values, and how you apply those to specific dilemmas. If you are looking for the magic formula of what you should or should not do, this is not the course for you. This course is about teaching us how to fish rather than just throwing us a fish.
Class will begin on April 1, 2019.

“Ethics and the Real You – Part 1” OR “The Code: an analytical approach” is a prerequisite for this course. (2.5 CEUs) “Ethics and the Real You – Part 2” is a five-week course involving video lectures and activities you do in your own home or work space. Topics will include Rights, Moral Dilemmas, Motives, Self-Interests, Contractarianism, Men and Women, Justice and Compassion, A Just World Hypothesis, and Paternalism. Continuing the same premise used in Part 1 of this series, this course will assist you in defining your ethics, your values, and how you apply those ethics to specific scenarios as a professional interpreter. Ethical decisions and behavior involve many different constructs of belief and value. Using the RID/NAD Code of Professional Conduct, as a guide for the next five weeks we explore some of those nuances that demand we decide which side of the fence we stand. As with Part 1, if you are looking for the magic formula of what you should or should not do, this is not the course for you. This course is about a personal journey and teaching us how to fish rather than just throwing us a fish. Class will begin on April 1, 2019.
