CS 181/181W will focus on teaching:
<ul>
<li>how to <b>recognize</b> (how to train a grasshopper on your shoulder to be vigilant about noticing) when a decision you are facing has a significant ethical implication
<li>how to reason about <b>what should happen</b>, consistent with the norms, culture, and experience of our discipline
<li>how to make <b>well-reasoned, persuasive arguments</b> that can influence the course of events.
</ul>
Coursework will include short online writing assignments (emphasizing the 400-word business memo), in-class exercises in making persuasive
arguments out loud, and a quarter-long project. Attendance is required at
lectures and sections.

Traditionally, CS181/181W is taught in a
discussion-based, participatory format. With a cap of
125 students in the class, this will be the largest
discussion-based class you have ever taken.
We will
do our best to teach you how to recognize situations
with ethical import, reason about the right course of
action, and persuade your organization to follow, and
we'll do exercises in class and in section to help you
hone your reasoning and persuasive skills. The class
includes a major project that requires interacting with
the world outside the Stanford campus. Attendance in the
class is required to participate in the
discussions; the class is not recorded.<p>

<h3 class="panel-title">Honor code</h3>
</div>
<div class="panel-body">
<p>This is a class on ethics. All students are expected to
follow the
<a href="https://ed.stanford.edu/academics/masters-handbook/honor-code">honor
code</a>, to give proper credit for work and for ideas, to act with
integrity, and to “take an active part in seeing
to it that others as well as themselves uphold the
spirit and letter of the Honor Code.” The course
staff is happy to answer questions, hypothetical or
otherwise, about ethics in academic work and in computer
science—it's part of what this course is about.
