Politics and the Ethical Educator
Even the most casual observer of the current political scene realizes that we are living in a highly partisan era. The fraught nature of political discourse poses particular risks for educators, who are expected to be role models in their school community. An unwise or intemperate comment on social media (all too easy to do!) can derail an otherwise successful career. This webinar explains the risks, discusses the applicability of the Model Code of Ethics for Educators, and offers some practical suggestions for getting through the 2020 election unscathed. This recording is part of a webcast series of the National Council for the Advancement of Educator Ethics (NCAEE).

The National Council for the Advancement of Educator Ethics and the NASDTEC Professional Education Committee presents the latest in its series of webinars on the ethical issues facing educators inside (and outside) the classroom. Nationally-recognized technology and privacy expert Frederick Lane ("Cybertraps for Educators," "American Privacy") offers a detailed and informative presentation focusing on the ethical challenges posed by one of today's most popular technologies: the smartphone. These powerful and sophisticated devices have invaded nearly every aspect of modern life. In the process, they have changed contemporary pedagogy, altered the power dynamic in the classroom, and have dramatically increased the potential for oversharing (both intentional and unintentional) by educators. Although many of the ethical dilemmas discussed by Lane arise out of Principal V of the Model Code of Ethics for Educators ("Responsible and Ethical Use of Technology"), Lane carefully highlights how ethical standards throughout the MCEE are relevant to how and when educators use their phones.
