dc.description.abstract | The paper examines the education
and training of adults in ethics. It
applies to courses at universities
and colleges as well as in the work
place. The paper explores the evidence
on our ability to strengthen
moral behaviour through courses on
ethics, finds it to be weak, so starts
with the assumption that we cannot
teach people to be ethical. The paper
asks therefore what the objectives
of a course could be and how best
to achieve them. It examines the
different theories in the literature,
eventually settling on four objectives:
increasing moral cognition; teaching
a widening and strengthening of
ethical practices; adopting teaching
approaches that maximise learning
impact, and developing the personal
skills of individuals in negotiation and
persuasion. All four objectives are of
value to people who seek an ethical
work environment. The paper then
explores the theories and differing
approaches used for achieving each
objective, including among others,
public interest disclosures, structuring
and using codes of ethics, case problems
and other experiential learning
techniques, organisational and institutional
approaches to ensuring ethical
behaviour, classroom interaction, the
role of theory, team teaching and
tailoring the courses to meet an ethical
needs analysis for that discipline,
profession or organisation. | en |
