Teaching College Students How to Solve Real-Life Moral Dilemmas
will speak to the sometimes confounding, real-life, moral
challenges that quarterlife students actually face each and every
day of their lives. It will spell out an original, all-inclusive
approach to thinking about, and applying, ethical problem-solving
that takes into consideration people's acts, intentions,
circumstances, principles, background beliefs,
religio-spiritualities, consequences, virtues and vices,
narratives, communities, and the relevant institutional and
political structures. This approach doesn't tell students exactly
what to do as much as it evokes important information in order to
help them think more deeply and expansively about ethical issues in
order to resolve actual ethical dilemmas. There is no text like it
on the market today. Teaching College Students How to Solve
Real-Life Moral Dilemmas can be used in a variety of ethics
courses.

As authors, we are convinced that the time has finally arrived in
academe for an extensive, experience?based, firsthand, seamless
examination of what we are calling crossover pedagogy. There is no
book?length examination of facultystudent affairs administrators
collaboration in the academic realm anywhere. Nobody has yet to
produce a case?based, hands?on, book?length treatment of how (and
why) faculty and student affairs administrators can co?teach,
co?author, and co?consult with one another as co?equal educators
and campus leaders-with each group complementing the other in terms
of their special skills, knowledge, background, and experiences.
Without coming to practical terms with the case for collaboration
that the above authors make, the why rationale developed in these
publications on the topic of faculty?administrator collaboration
(sometimes referred to as "blended" efforts) around the
teaching?learning venture is lost in the logistics of technical
policy issues and challenges.
