§ List of the ways the particular solution is likely to positively or negatively affect every stakeholder

§ List of the ethical principles upheld or violated by the solution, including a brief explanation

o Evaluate each main solution and its outcomes, likely impact, and the values upheld and violated by it. Compare the possible solutions to each other and weigh them.

o Are some possible consequences of some possible solutions more important than others? Why?

o Are some possible consequences of some possible solutions more likely to occur than others? Why?

o Does one solution uphold or violate certain values in more or less important ways than another? Why?

o Why is one possible solution better or worse than another?

o If all main solutions are unsatisfactory, has the team searched for other possibilities or variations that have not been considered before?
