Scene to read · Ethics, Professionalism

The example everyone knows about

You are a peer tutor co-leading a session at a campus tutoring center.

In the back room of the tutoring center, you co-lead today's session with Aelita, a fellow tutor. The instructor approved both a blank structure guide and an anonymized worked example. Adonai, a newcomer, has just asked you both for the example.

The scene

Adonai: Could I see the worked example, please? Everyone else seems to know it exists.

Aelita: I'd like everyone to try the structure alone first. Struggling helps them learn.

Adonai: I understand, but I'm lost already, and I don't want to fall behind others.

Aelita: It is allowed, I know. I don't want this to turn into copying.

The two questions

  1. 1What would you do, and what would you say to Adonai and Aelita?
  2. 2Tell us about a time you had to follow a plan or rule while also making sure someone got the help they needed. What did you do?
