The
PowerPoint (PPT) assignment allows you to delve deeply into the ethical dilemma
of Physician-Assisted Suicide (PAS) and practice presentation skills.
See the
folder in Module 4: Wk 8-9 labeled Opposing Views of Physician-Assisted
Suicide and view the opposing sides of the issue. — linked at the bottom
You
are to provide an ethical and legal analysis of PAS in a 7–9-minute
presentation (see rubric). Keep in mind that PAS is not a “case” as in the
ethical issue paper. You are to analyze the positions of those for and
against PAS.
Develop
a PowerPoint presentation that follows best practices for slide
development and addresses the components of the assignment (see
rubric).

assignment, but you should also read and integrate a minimum of three (3)
peer-reviewed scholarly references no more than five years old. The maximum
number of references is six (6)
a.
If cited in the narration,
the Butts and Rich textbook will count as one reference. It is not an edited
book, so reference it correctly. No other textbook can be referenced in the presentation.

articles, blogs, or lay journals. You may use .gov websites for background
