    • Why should we consider the historical, political, and social context when making ethical judgments?
    • Should people of today have any responsibility for actions taken in the past?
    • Can people of the past be celebrated for great achievements if they have also done things considered unethical today?

    • Assess the responsibility of historical figures for an important event. Assess how much responsibility should be assigned to different people, and evaluate whether their actions were justified given the historical context.
    • Examine various media sources on a topic and assess how much of the language contains implicit and explicit moral judgments.
