This course emphasizes environmental, educational, and social demands that influence an educator's daily decisions involving ethics, relationships, and cybertraps. Many of these decisions conflict with personal, organizational, technological, and social factors. Poor decisions -- no matter how well-intentioned -- may result in adverse consequences. This course is for professional development only and will not be used for any other purpose. It is intended to build an educator’s knowledge and confidence in dealing with education-based ethical decisions. |
