 La Ética en el Contexto Educativo

La ética es una ciencia que estudia la conducta del ser humano, la manera de comportarse ante la sociedad y ante él mismo, sin embargo, también es la que hace cumplir todos los valores y divide las cosas entre el bien y el mal, y juzgará a cada una de las personas a su debida manera.

Pero, que es la ética en el ámbito educativo, la ética en el ámbito educativo se refiere a que cada docente que esta para enseñar y educar a cada uno de los estudiantes deberá ser ético moralmente, y él será el primero el que debe cumplir y hacer cumplir todos los valores morales, ya que, desde allí viene la enseñanza a los estudiantes y es un espejo en el cual se verán reflejados y educados con valores y ética, en donde digan y demuestren que si fueron educados para hacer el bien.

Ya que, en la actualidad, existe mucha corrupción y desde allí viene ya que, si en tal caso un estudiante quiere hacer una trampa en el examen copiando porque no estudio, ya hace el mal, y no cumple con sus valores éticos. Pero si un estudiante que si estudio y pone en practica todo lo aprendido, no será necesario tener que recurrir a la copia.

Entonces, la ética en el contexto estudiantil viene formándose desde los docentes quienes serán los que imparten mucho aprendizaje e inculquen los valores del bien y hacer las cosas correctamente y no faltar a su ética moral personalmente.
