- Although we might not realize it, we all face ethical issues on a regular basis. But how do we know how to respond well to these issues, to make better (as opposed to worse) ethical decisions? In this TEDx talk Dr. Michael D. Burroughs discusses the numerous kinds of ethical issues we face, possibilities for increasing our ethical awareness as "everyday ethicists," and the importance of introducing ethics and philosophical education in our schools. Dr. Burroughs also discusses the role of ethics in the lives of children and ways in which adults can attempt to understand and learn from children in ethical discussions.
Michael D. Burroughs is a philosopher, ethicist, educator (and beekeeper). Michael earned his PhD. in Philosophy from the University of Memphis and currently serves as Associate Director of the Rock Ethics Institute and Senior Lecturer of Philosophy at Penn State. Michael has published widely on topics in ethics, the philosophy of education, and childhood. In addition, he has devoted much of his professional career to practicing philosophy and ethics with populations beyond the university, including children in K-12 schools, prison inmates, and senior citizens. Michael's forthcoming book (co-authored with Jana Mohr Lone) is entitled Philosophy in Education: Questioning and Dialogue in Schools (Rowman and Littlefield, 2016) and addresses the purpose, theory, and practice of teaching philosophy and ethics in K-12 schools. In addition to his professional pursuits, Michael enjoys spending time in the out-of-doors, playing music, and traveling, among other things.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

MY SCHOOL MADE ME WATCH THIS ! WATCH THIS in 0.75x!
are you stoned
Yes, I went back to view Dr. Michael Burroughs' lecture in 0.5x, 0.75 and then at normal play-back speed. Thank you, YWG for your counsel. I equally applied subtitles/closed captions. I became at home with the lecture. I'm no more "lost".
Thank you Michael Burroughs! The world needs more people like you introducing ethics and philosophical education in schools and promoting moral behavior in daily life.

I appreciate your comment about choosing 'ethically better as opposed to ethically problematical'. The biggest struggle I find with ethics is, whose values take precedence? Naturally, we are predisposed towards our own perspectives and these act as a filter, even when we try to be unbiased. I like that you foreground that at the core of the ethical process, whilst rationally requiring a selection of a direction to take, is motivated by care and deep reflection. The more I look into ethics, the more the realisation comes that there is no simple, right or clear pathway; that the path of least resistance may be a poor route in the long term; and that the best one can do is choose the 'ethically better' path following a careful and reasoned decision process. Thanks for your talk.
Thank you so much TED! It gave me a lot of new insights about ethics~
This was really helpful with my ethics essay, but when you slow it down it sounds like your college professor is high.
Dr. Burroughs points are valid, insightful and worth a second look. I just wish Dr. Burroughs would slow down when he speaks. The veracity and speed at which he speaks allow every point he is making to become disposable and insignificant.
Omg I though the playback speed was on 1.25x. 😂 I thought so coz the video I watched before this was on 1.25x but I checked on this one and it wasn't lol.

my teacher forced my to watch it otherwise he would kill my god. R.I.P. Rex. i miss you
Muy bien este video
Perceivably, Dr. Michael Burroughs is a brilliant scholar with insight and experience, but I'm afraid that his speed of speech and intonation especially are not friendly with me and possibly many others from the West Africa sub-region. I can only think of what I had known as a student of Ethics some years back. At best I only give him credit for his fluency and perceivable rich and mastery of the subject-matter he welt on. I'm lost oooo. Johnson,
....he dwelt on. (not... he welt on.)
Hello give me an reaction paper. For our activities thankyouu
@@zenvirorte6611 hey can i hahaha

Hello, I'm trying use this video on a page of videos about doing philosophy with children and I was wondering if you could enable embedding on this video? Thanks!
There are many links on UA-cam about embedding a video into a PP or word doc.
If TEDxTalk didnt exist the ammount of reaction papers would greatly decrease
People have their own moral compass
All of you.....
Why is ethics is very significant to our daily life?
Except for the fastAss pace.. all's good
Dr. Henry wu has left the chat

I would read Plato's Protagoras before going on...
He looks like a youth group leader at a church

Ethics is applicable to those with a heart capable of caring for others and animals suffering. Do not reply or like if you eat steak every day.

Do you speak this fast with young children?
Should we ever trust that word "ethicist?" All of the people in the following example were certain that their ethics was "God"-given. And most people on planet earth, are in one religion, or another.
From the book … Drop Dead: A Horrible History of Hanging in Canada, author … Lorna Poplak.
Capital punishment, the execution of someone found guilty of a crime, dates back to arrival of the European explorers on our shores. In those days, if you were condemned to death, quite a wide range of methods could be used to punish you. You could be hanged, or face a firing squad, or be burned at the stake.
Although Canada remained a collection of separate British colonies until Confederation in 1876, a Royal Proclamation in 1763 replaced the prevailing Canadian legal system with the laws of England.
By the end of the 1700s in Britain, however, the litany of crimes regarded as sufficiently horrible to warrant the death penalty had swelled to 220, including nefarious acts as keeping company with gypsies or skulking in the dark with a blackened face.
In 1828, Patrick Burgan of Saint John, New Brunswick, aged eighteen or nineteen, received the death penalty for the double offence of stealing a watch and some money from his former employer and clothing from a sailors’ boarding house.
Given the power and pre-eminence of religion in Canada at that time, your very life would have been in jeopardy if you were caught scrawling slogans on the side of a church. You could also be hanged for stealing your neighbor’s cow, which was the fate of B. Clement of Montreal. And just in case you thought that the law protected the young as it does today, think again. Children were regarded as miniature adults and treated as such - Clement was only thirteen years old when executed.
Mmmmm.....not sure about Michael's direction and content here re ethics. As someone who has taught ethics across multiple learning and teaching contexts: elementary, secondary, college and university (undergraduate and post graduate) ethics IS about personal beliefs, morals, duty and respect (yes we stray into Kant's teachings but I digress).....NOT about a society's or community's ethical standards eg norms He IS correct (and from my experience over the past 30 years) to state that children DO have an ethical or moral compass. A mixed bag with this TEDTalk.
actually to touch on what you have stated there, in what Mr. Borroughs is speaking when it comes to ethics it is easier to teach a child because they are more open to being ethical due to children are curious and with curiosity comes questions, with questions, comes ethics " what is right and what is wrong" children learn about ethics in their everyday life, yet they do not teach ethics in the schools because if you look back they decided a while back to take " God" out of the schools, now almost all of the great philosophers having to do with Ethics studied God and used him in all of what they spoke of and researched. so just to kind of make it a point when they decide to pull the God card, then they also pulled the ethics card at the same time.
Begins speech by declaring right and wrong from his perspective forgetting some truths don’t care about what you think.
Screech got smart af in jail!
TOK btw
he needs to speak slow and not compress a lot in 10 mins ...whats the point if you cant hold the listeners
Surely you do not need skill to act ethically? You just have to base a judgement on the principles you prefer. Go with your bias and pretend it is good.
This actually
made me tired
Discipline for God's sake.
Omg

forced to watch
Slow slow slow
Sadly a Rhetorical Illustration of Ethics...
Stop waffling
OMG wTF
Really? Live life man?
Dont think about it.. Why do you hate every possible human connection?!!! Relax dude.. :D
This talk was a waste of time.
That drawing he presented doesn't look real, or it doesn't match his story. It doesn't look like it was done by one single kid, as there are variances in the different figures in the drawing. Kind of unethical to lie to your audience during a presentation on ethics, lol.
He talks way too fast which is annoying and detracts from his message
Lost me at climate change
Doesnt make sense too much.’forced to watch it
I wonder if one of these speakers can ethically speak of current issues without going into details about “supposed world happenings,” such as global warming? This is not a proven science but this guy unethically states global arming to be fact to these people searching for Honesty in an ethic’s forum. They have just been lied to. Therefore, of what value is this guy to all? He, if he himself was truly ethical would clearly state that what he speaks to are thought to be accurate assumptions by some, and use these as examples of how we are easily influenced by people believed to be honest and ethical. He needs to be challenged on this, not buy us, but by TED executives even before he’s allowed to proffer such misleading statements. No wonder TED is seen as fake news by so many in the ethical world!
