Abstract
In this article, I detail a course for teaching ethics to undergraduat es. In addition to learning about moral philosophy and the ethical pri nciples for psychologists, the purpose of the course is to help studen ts become more sensitive to the complex ethical dilemmas involved in t he field of psychology and related disciplines, Participation in a ser vice-learning experience allows students to reflect on ethical implica tions both in and outside of the classroom.
