Technoethics in schools

chapter
posted on 2023-05-22, 20:55 authored by Darren PullenDarren Pullen
School students are used 10 digital technology-they blog, create movies for public viewing on the web, create and download music and use instant messaging to communicate with their friends and family. Whilst todays students are technologically capable,perhaps moreso than their teachers and parents, they might not know how to legally and ethically interpret and use digital resources and materials. Teachers need to understand the social, ethical, legal and human issues that surround the use of digital technology in schools and then apply that understanding to help students become technologically responsible, and so to ensure that they, the workers oftomorrow, have the critical thinking and communication skills to match their technical skill.
