Ethics in education...anybody listening??

Dictonary defines ethics as "the rules of conduct recognized in respect to a particular class of human actions or a particular group, culture." If you look around at the society to see who are those individuals who are held up as the examples to our children, it becomes obvious that we are driving our country into and ethical or moral collapse.

This begs the question that whatever is taught in the schools, colleges, universities and indeed all these business management schools is actually helping them to learn desired code of conduct. The reality of today's world is that children spend more time in their educational places rather than their own homes. That is why education must live up the expectations.


What is it we really want teachers to do? In order to achieve this, they must first understand the values in the society and learn to live within the margins of the behaviors expected of them. Many times it falls upon the teachers to instill these values, not because the parents do not want to provide these values to their children, but because they are many times working two jobs, single parents, or face other obstacles that prevent them from doing that which in the past fell to them. As a result, shouldn't we as a society value these individuals, who attend universities, and then for as little pay as the governments in their areas can get away with paying them dedicate their lives to helping all the children within a society? What ethics are we showing them if we tell our children that their teachers are "failures?" Are we as a society dooming our children to live within a society without any moral standards
