| description | E-learning encourages ideas to be exchanged, knowledge transferred and intellectual ideals
pursued.On the other hand, e-learning also
poses new challenges to traditional notions of
education.Almost inevitably, moral dilemmas
arise out of the activities of all e-learning
participants.These dilemmas range from issues
in learning assessment to the ethical implications
of using technology for education.The present
paper first enumerates and explains a number of
ethical principles distilled from an extensive
research of literature in philosophy, law, history,sociology, and political science.Examples of how these ethical principles may be applied in
resolving real-life moral dilemmas in e-learning
will be illustrated. The paper will eventually
propose an ethical framework based on insights
from recent research by the author for effective
resolution of ethical dilemmas in e-learning. |
