Today we'll be looking at the components of the synthesis essay, as well as a quick overview of how I'll be marking it.

Currently, we have 14 topic choices. This is too many - having too many choices can slow down our thinking and congest the process of gathering evidence and decided on a "good fit". Here is the list of topics we have currently. We'll be trimming this down today (this has been updated to reflect our elimination process).

• 1.    How have different societies shaped people’s values and behaviours?
• 4.    How does people’s cultural background influence people’s judgement towards the ethics of the other societies?
• 5.    How does the diversity of moral outlooks on controversial actions in cultures show that right and wrong are determined by culture?
• 6.    If infanticide is committed for what is perceived as a means of survival, can it be said to be morally correct because it prevents the collapse of society?
• 8.    Does our own cultural values limit our ability to observe other culture’s beliefs as morally iniquitous?
• 12.    Should we try and question cultural actions we deem as immoral and try to change them to what we think is right?
