Ethics are the moral principles that guide our behavior in life. As educators, we maintain one of the highest regarded professions that exists and with that comes a massive responsibility. We are tasked with not only facilitating learning and guiding children through life, but doing so while demonstrating the utmost ethical behavior. On a personal level, our morals and values may vary, but as educators, there should be a set of principles that we can universally recognize as pillars of the profession. This course will borrow from many different studies and philosophies to help educators identify and apply ethical standards. Teachers will share strategies that will further their insight into the profession and amplify their educational outreach to students, parents, peers and administrators.
