tailieunhanh - PROFESSIONALISM AND ETHICS IN TEACHING

This volume represents an attempt, to the best of my ability, to draw together a decade of enquiries into the meaning of professionalism, the relationship of educational theory and practice and the nature of moral enquiry into a reasonably coherent whole. Although all these topics have interested me throughout my professional educational life, the path to this book can be traced back to an attempt in the summer of 1990 to assemble a full-length exploration of the moral basis of teaching and educational practice | Professionalism and Ethics in Teaching David Carr Also available as a printed book see title verso for ISBN details PROFESSIONALISM AND ETHICS IN TEACHING Professionalism and Ethics in Teaching examines the ethical issues in teaching. After discussing the moral implications of professionalism the author explores the relationship of education theory to teaching practice and the impact of this relationship on professional expertise. He then identifies and examines some central ethical and moral issues in education and teaching.

These codes of conduct raise a number of questions about the status of a profession and the consequent moral implications for behaviour. This series seeks to examine these questions both critically and constructively. Individual volumes will consider issues relevant to particular professions including nursing genetic counselling journalism business the food industry and law. Other volumes will address issues relevant to all professional groups such as the function .
