Moral Dilemma Activity
For this assignment, you will need to put yourself in the shoes of one of the
characters from Lord of the Flies and reason you way through a moral dilemma.
First, you will select a group of three people and each group will be assigned a
character from the novel. Your group will be given 15 minutes to prepare for a
moral dilemma interview. You should use this time to recall yesterday’s discussion
and think about how your group’s character would make difficult moral choices.
After preparing, each group will be called on to respond to a moral dilemma. Your
response should indicate that you have an understanding of both your character
and Kholberg’s theory of morality stages, and that you have used this
understanding to give an appropriately reasoned response. Note that the decision
you make is not necessarily important; what is important is how you came to that
decision.
