ETHICS
First, ethics refers to well-founded standards of right and wrong that prescribe what humans
ought to do, usually in terms of rights, obligations, benefits to society, fairness, or specific
virtues.
Secondly, ethics refers to the study and development of one's ethical standards... it is
necessary to constantly examine one's standards to ensure that they are reasonable and wellfounded. Ethics also means, then, the continuous effort of studying our own moral beliefs and
our moral conduct, and striving to ensure that we, and the institutions we help to shape, live
up to standards that are reasonable and solidly-based.
Basic types

Economical: Social ethics are the philosophical or moral principles that, in one way
or another, represent the collective experience of people and cultures. The focus is
usually more on what may be considered appropriate behaviour for people as a whole.
People perceive things differently, however, and various cultures share often wildly
opposing beliefs; as such, what is deemed right for one group may not necessarily
be consistent universally and defining social ethics as an absolute is often very
difficult.
1. Base my work on contemporary perspectives on research,

theory,

content

knowledge, high-quality early childhood practices and my understandings of

the

children and families with whom I work.

2. Regard myself as a learner who undertakes reflection, critical self-study, continuing
professional development and engages with contemporary theory and practice.
3. Seek and build collaborative professional relationships.

4. Acknowledge the power dimensions within professional Relationships.

5. Act in ways that advance the interests and standing of my profession.
6. Work within the limits of my professional role and avoid misrepresentation of my
professional competence and qualifications.
7. Mentor other early childhood professionals and students.
8. Advocate in relation to issues that impact on my profession and on young children
and their families.
9. Encourage qualities and practices of leadership within the early childhood
profession.

Social: rule that is applied in order to curb the relationship with others so that good
communication can be established and familiar. Every action we take must be in
accordance with the prevailing social ethic in the area. This applies globally wherever
we live. Whether it's in the western hemisphere, east, south or north. Each has its own
rules to maintain the good life in his neighbourhood.
1. Learn about the communities that I work within and enact curriculum programs which are
responsive to those contexts and community priorities.

2. Connect with people, services and agencies within the communities that support
children and families.
3. Promote shared aspirations amongst communities in order to enhance childrens
health and wellbeing.
4. Advocate for the development and implementation of laws and policies that
promote child-friendly communities and work to change those that work against child
and family wellbeing.
5. Utilise knowledge and research to advocate for universal access to a range of highquality early childhood programs for all children.
6. Work to promote community understanding of how children learn, in order that
appropriate systems of assessment and reporting are used to benefit children

Behaviour: A behavioural ethics approach does not teach students how they should
behave when facing ethical dilemmas, nor inform them about what philosophers or
ethicists would recommend. Instead it sees an opportunity in helping students and
professionals better understand their own behaviour in the ethics domain, and
compare it to how they would ideally like to behave

1. Afford professional opportunities and resources for students to demonstrate their

competencies.
2. Acknowledge and support the personal strengths, professional knowledge, diversity
and experience which students bring to the learning environment.
3. Model high-quality professional practices.
4. Know the requirements of the students individual institutes and communicate
openly with the representatives of that institution.
5. Provide ongoing constructive feedback and assessment that is fair and equitable.
6. Implement strategies that will empower students to make positive contributions to
the workplace.
7. Maintain confidentiality in relation to students.
.
Self-concerning: We can make it possible for fresh starters to live their lives with greater
integrity, or greater consistency with their own values, if they know what kind of dilemmas
theyre going to face. That sort of preparation is crucial to the development an ethical
character.

Some common dilemma and how I face them:

College life includes relationships, cheating, drinking, privacy, diversity, computer issues,
college sports, abuse, responsibility, and plagiarism. The importance of ethical principles lies
in how they can be used to think through morally complex situations and settle disputes. They
teach reasoning and dialoguing skills that students can use productively in every every area of
their college experience, and addresses topics that are essential to building personal character,
healthy college communities, and a strong society.
Further In any role we play in life, there are a set of unavoidable ethical dilemmas that come
with that role, that come with the territory. Practical ethics is about to know those are coming
so they dont blindside you.
Value of education:
My approach to college is to embrace the idea of a liberal education and not expecting that
my education will necessarily prepare me for a specific career but trusting that I will learn the
critical thinking skills I will need in all areas of my life.
How to get along with all.
You don't have to love the people you live with, but there are boundaries to how you treat
another person.

Respect for all, humility in behaviour and acceptance of people as they are.
How far will I go to be accepted?
I am willing to sacrifice time and put efforts on making good friends; also I keep no barriers
to entry in my group and take up team activities which interest the majority.
