從出生到死亡，每個人都跟醫療及醫學研究活動密切相關。代理孕母，墮胎，HIV檢驗與治療，以動物做試驗，知的權利，以及安樂死等道德問題，都是我們在日常生活當中，所可能面臨的難題。在面對這些問題時，我們是否有較充分的理由去作抉擇？在這個課程中，我想提供各式各樣的觀點，幫助同學再思考那些議題。
本文是作者在淡江大學教核心課程「道德誰理」學門「醫學倫理」這門課的教學示例，包括底下三主題：
(1)開課理念與教學目標
(2)教學活動的設計與進行
(3)教學成果與感想
From birth to death, everyone is deeply concerned with medical treatment and the activities of medical research. The moral problems involved in those issues such as surrogate motherhood, abortion, the test and treatment of HIV, the use of animals in medical experiments, the right to know, and euthanasia, etc., surround us in our every-day life. As we meet these problems, do we have adequate reasons in making our decision? In this course, I hope to provide various view-points to help the students to re-think those issues.
This paper is an exposition of the author's way of teaching ”medical ethics” in ”moral reasoning” in the core curriculum at Tamkang University. The content of this paper is divided into the following three parts:
(1) the philosophy and the aim of the course
(2) the design and the procedure of teaching
(3) the outcome, and the teacher's feeling about the course
