"The Ethics of Teaching" provides a frank discussion of the most
frequently encountered ethical dilemmas that can arise in
educational settings, as well as tips on how to avoid these
predicaments and how to deal with them when they do occur. The goal
is to stimulate discussion and raise faculties' consciousness about
ethical issues.
Ethical dilemmas are presented as short, engaging case scenarios,
most of which are based on actual situations, so as to furnish more
realistic and interesting stimuli for individual reflection and
group discussion. These scenarios offer the opportunity to consider
the subtle complexities inherent in the social and psychological
contexts in which educator-student interactions occur and the
effects of those complexities on ethical decision making. Each case
is followed by a detailed analysis and advice. The book's 195 cases
are grouped into 22 chapters representing topics, such as the
controversial classroom presentations and assignments, debatable
testing and grading practices, problematic student-faculty
interactions, dual-role relationships with students, collegial
conflicts, managing very difficult students, and confidentiality
dilemmas.
"The Ethics of Teaching: A Casebook, Second Edition: "
*focuses on commonly encountered ethical "gray areas" that have no
clear solution;
*includes questions to stimulate discussion of related ethical
issues;
*concludes with a chapter on prevention, peer mentoring, and
intervention; and
*serves as excellent "assigned reading" to stimulate group
discussion in teaching workshops and faculty development programs.
The first edition of this book evolved by collecting a variety of
teaching situations that commonly occur in college and university
settings. The authors then created responses to the situations and
circulated both the cases and the responses to reviewers from a
number of departments across the country. As a result, the vast
majority of the cases are "discipline free." The second edition
features many new cases to reflect recent trends and events related
to academic ethics. Questions were added to stimulate discussion
and to further elaborate the issues.
"The Ethics of Teaching: A Casebook" is ideal for college and
university faculty, graduate assistants, and administrators
involved in workshops, graduate teaching assistant courses, and
faculty development and new faculty orientation programs. As a
result of the book's cross-disciplinary development, it will be
beneficial to faculty from a broad spectrum of disciplines.
