Conditions d’achèvement
Unit 14 serves as the culmination of the course, bringing together the ethical principles, concepts, and practices explored in previous units. It focuses on applying ethical decision-making frameworks to complex, real-world teaching scenarios that often involve overlapping moral challenges. Students will engage in synthesis activities, case study analysis, and exam preparation to demonstrate their critical understanding of applied ethics in education. The unit also guides learners in crafting a personal ethical statement that reflects their values, responsibilities, and professional identity as future educators.
4. Analysing Complex Case Studies
Real-world
ethical challenges often involve multiple dimensions. Consider the following example: Case Study: A student’s parent, who is also a local official, requests access to
exam results before they are published. The student is underperforming, and the
parent implies this could influence future school funding. ✍️ Task: Analyse this case using at least two ethical frameworks from the
course. Discuss in groups.
