Another component that makes it an ethical one is the outcome of the future. Many teachers are questioned on how they can be productive and improve their classroom situations. The third component in making an issue ethical is it has to be separated from one s values. Values are based on a person s beliefs or attitudes, and are sometimes confused with ethical decisions, even though they shouldn t be. Principle of benefit maximization deals with the long-term effects.
Teachers are role models and often influence one's life.
For example, Mrs. Thomas, my health occupations teacher, had a huge influence in my personal life. An example of equal respect for persons is that teachers should always put an emphasis on helping the students who are shy or less assertive. Many times when a student is new in class he or she is shy and never really seem to be involved in class activities. Many times these students hide behind other students and will never learn to speak for themselves. I believe that thirty years ago teaching styles were a little different.
