Week One Online Challenge

Each week, I'll be posting an online challenge a few days before class to help us all prepare for the two hours we spend together in class. Responding with comments will be a regular way for you to participate in online discussions, but is neither required, nor is it the only way you contribute. You are also encouraged to make your own posts. We'll talk more about this in class on Wednesday. So on to this week's challenge:

You've signed up for a class titled, "Ethics in the ER."

The first part of the challenge is to think of 3 words or phrases relevant to medical ethics. It's okay to repeat a previous poster's words, but push yourself to think of new contributions.

The second part of the challenge is to think of one way that medical ethics might be different in the emergency room.

You can answer one or both parts here. We'll be discussing what you come up with in class.
