Kantian Ethics Essay

Hi! How would you structure your answer for the following question


Asses the view that kantian ethics does not help with moral decision making.
I would put an intro with my view on the topic

I would then explain the key info about Kantian ethics and then evaluate.

Next paragraph I would put would be a supporter of Kantian ethics (W. D. Ross would be a good example) and then evaluate it.

I would then add a paragraph or two with key criticisms of Kantian Ethics with scholars (Situation Ethics and utilitarianism, + people like Bernard Williams, Benjamin Constant, Alisdair MacIntyre)

I would then put a conclusion reiterating your view point and evaluating the key points you made in the essay.
