You have a friend who is enrolled in the same course as you…

You have a friend who is enrolled in the same course as you are at the VLC.  Your friend is from a single parent family home and is required to have a job to help make ends meet in their family home. There is a major assignment due in your class but your friend has had to work double shifts since their mom has been sick and not working as much.   Because your friend has been working so much, they have not been able to complete the assignment.  If they fail one more assignment, their grades will be lower than the scholarship cut off requirements for the university they are hoping to attend in the fall. They have asked you to give them a copy of your assignment “just as an example” but you are concerned that they will copy it in order to meet the deadline.

You should plan to use at least 2 different ethical approaches.
