Information ethics has been defined as "the branch of ethics that focuses on the relationship between the creation, organization, dissemination, and use of information, and the ethical standards and moral codes governing human conduct in society".[1] The term information ethics was first coined by Robert Hauptman and used in the book Ethical challenges in librarianship. It examines the morality that comes from information as a resource, a product, or as a target.[2] It provides a critical framework for considering moral issues concerning informational privacy, moral agency (e.g. whether artificial agents may be moral), new environmental issues (especially how agents should behave in the infosphere), problems arising from the life-cycle (creation, collection, recording, distribution, processing, etc.) of information (especially ownership and copyright, digital divide, and digital rights). It is very vital to understand that librarians, archivists, information professionals among others, really understand the importance of knowing how to disseminate proper information as well as being responsible with their actions when addressing information.[3]
Information ethics has evolved to relate to a range of fields such as computer ethics,[4] medical ethics, journalism[5] and the philosophy of information.
Dilemmas regarding the life of information are becoming increasingly important in a society that is defined as "the information society". The explosion of so much technology has brought information ethics to a forefront in ethical considerations. Information transmission and literacy are essential concerns in establishing an ethical foundation that promotes fair, equitable, and responsible practices. Information ethics broadly examines issues related to ownership, access, privacy, security, and community. It is also concerned with relational issues such as "the relationship between information and the good of society, the relationship between information providers and the consumers of information".[6]
Information technology affects common issues such as copyright protection, intellectual freedom, accountability, privacy, and security. Many of these issues are difficult or impossible to resolve due to fundamental tensions between Western moral philosophies (based on rules, democracy, individual rights, and personal freedoms) and the traditional Eastern cultures (based on relationships, hierarchy, collective responsibilities, and social harmony).[7] The multi-faceted dispute between Google and the government of the People's Republic of China reflects some of these fundamental tensions.

Understanding Ethical and Social Issues Related to Systems
In the past 10 years, we have witnessed, arguably, one of the most ethically challenging periods for U.S. and global business. In today’s new legal environment, managers who violate the law and are convicted will most likely spend time in prison. Ethics refers to the principles of right and wrong that individuals, acting as free moral agents, use to make choices to guide their behaviors. When using information systems, it is essential to ask, “What is the ethical and socially responsible course of actin?”

Drop Shipping in the Q-Commerce Era, A case study of Daraz. pk | Project by FAHAD HASSAN NOOR under observation by Mustafa Hannan Mehboob | UCP University Of Central PUNJAB
The research project considered dropshipping in the Q-commerce era in our national setting as
Pakistan's E-commerce industry is evolving, and the supply chain structure of Daraz.pk is
exactly the phenomenon to be studied. The article acknowledges that more entrepreneurs are
turning to dropship, which is market-driven and a way for entrepreneurs with little cash to set
into an e-commerce business. The importance of dropshipping as an instrument that dismantles
retailers from stock and warehouse concerns is emphasized here. The effort is shifted to
marketing and customer acquisition. This research will be about analyzing what Q-commerce –
assumed to be a non-conforming model that conforms to modern consumers’ demands of
instant service– has done to the economies and the dynamics in Pakistan.

While many firms are part of supply chain not all are managed in any truly coordinated fashion.
Many firms within supply chain wants to work independently.
Firms with large system inventories, many suppliers, complex product assemblies and highly valued customers benefit most from the practice of supply chain management.
For these firms, even moderate supply chain management success can mean lower purchasing and inventory carrying costs, better product quality and higher levels of customer service—all leading to more sales.
Creating and Managing Supplier RelationshipsFaHaD .H. NooR
Companies require their suppliers to deliver innovative and quality products not only in just-in-time (JIT) fashion, but also at a competitive price.
Good supplier relations can provide many benefits such as flexibility in terms of delivery, better quality, better information, and better material flows between buyers and suppliers.
Selecting the right supply partners and successfully managing these relationships over time is thus strategically important; it is often stated that “a firm is only as good as its suppliers.”
Purchasing departments contributes in product design, quality, cost of goods sold, manufacturing cycle time.
Ethical and Sustainable sourcing practices have become area of concern over the past five to ten years.
Global population growth, increasing environmental awareness, consumers desires for better corporate responsibility, and declining worldwide levels of natural resources has pressured companies to effectively implement these practices.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2. Information systems and ethics
– Information systems raise new ethical
questions because they create
opportunities for:
Intense social change, threatening
existing distributions of power, money,
rights, and obligations
New kinds of crime
3. Key technology trends that raise
ethical issues
1. Doubling of computer power
– More organizations depend on computer systems for
critical operations
1. Rapidly declining data storage costs
– Organizations can easily maintain detailed databases on
individuals
1. Networking advances and the Internet
– Copying data from one location to another and accessing
personal data from remote locations is much easier
4. 4. Advances in data analysis techniques
– Companies can analyze vast quantities of data
gathered on individuals for:
Profiling
– Combining data from multiple sources to create
dossiers of detailed information on individuals
Nonobvious relationship awareness (NORA)
– Combining data from multiple sources to find obscure
hidden connections that might help identify criminals or
terrorists
5. NORA technology can take information about people from disparate sources
and find obscure, nonobvious relationships. It might discover, for example, that
an applicant for a job shares a telephone number with a known criminal and
issue an alert to the hiring manager.
6. Where does it cross the line?
Edward Snowden
He leaked classified documents
that revealed numerous global
surveillance programs, many run
by the NSA and the Five
Eyes* with the cooperation
of telecommunication
companies and European
governments
* It is an intelligence alliance comprising Australia, Canada, New
Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United States
7. Ethics in an Information Society
Basic concepts for ethical analysis
– Responsibility:
Accepting the potential costs, duties, and obligations for
decisions
– Accountability:
Mechanisms for identifying responsible parties
– Liability:
Permits individuals (and firms) to recover damages done to
them
– Due process:
Laws are well known and understood, with an ability to appeal
to higher authorities
8. Ethical analysis: A five-step process
1. Identify and clearly describe the facts
2. Define the conflict or dilemma and identify the
higher-order values involved
3. Identify the stakeholders
4. Identify the options that you can reasonably
take
5. Identify the potential consequences of your
options
9. Six Candidate Ethical Principles
1. Golden Rule
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you
1. Immanuel Kant’s Categorical Imperative
If an action is not right for everyone to take, it is not right
for anyone
1. Descartes’ Rule of Change
If an action cannot be taken repeatedly, it is not right to
take at all
10. Six Candidate Ethical Principles (cont.)
4. Utilitarian Principle
Take the action that achieves the higher or greater value
4. Risk Aversion Principle
Take the action that produces the least harm or least
potential cost
4. Ethical “no free lunch” Rule
Assume that virtually all tangible and intangible objects are
owned by someone unless there is a specific declaration
otherwise
11. Five moral dimensions of the
information age
1. Information rights and obligations
2. Property rights and obligations
3. Accountability and control
4. System quality
5. Quality of life
13. 1- Information rights and
obligations
Privacy:
– Claim of individuals to be left alone, free from
surveillance or interference from other individuals,
organizations, or state. Claim to be able to control
information about yourself
Do you believe that there are sufficient
protections for privacy in law?
15. Fair Information Practices (FIP)
Notice/awareness (core principle)
– Web sites must disclose practices before collecting
data
Choice/consent (core principle)
– Consumers must be able to choose how information
is
Access/participation
– Consumers must be able to review, contest
accuracy of personal data
16. Fair Information Practices (FIP)
Security
– Data collectors must take steps to ensure accuracy,
security of personal data
Enforcement
– There must be a mechanism to enforce FIP
principles
17. Internet challenges to privacy
Cookies
– Tiny files downloaded by Web site to visitor’s hard drive
to help identify visitor’s browser and track visits to site
– Allow Web sites to develop profiles on visitors
Web beacons/bugs
– Tiny graphics embedded in e-mail and Web pages to
monitor who is reading message
Spyware
– Surreptitiously installed on user’s computer
– May transmit user’s keystrokes or display unwanted ads
18. Google’s collection of private data;
behavioral targeting
What are your thoughts on it?
19. 2 - Property rights and obligations
Intellectual property: Intangible property of any
kind created by individuals or corporations
Three main ways that protect intellectual property
1. Trade secret: Intellectual work or product belonging to
business, not in the public domain
2. Copyright: Statutory grant protecting intellectual
property from being copied for the life of the author,
plus 70 years
3. Patents: Grants creator of invention an exclusive
monopoly on ideas behind invention for 20 years
20. Challenges to intellectual property rights
– Digital media different from physical media (e.g.
books)
Ease of replication
Ease of transmission (networks, Internet)
Difficulty in classifying software
Compactness
Difficulties in establishing uniqueness
21. 3 - Accountability and control
Computer-related liability problems
– If software fails, who is responsible?
– Eg, Amazon and its clients
22. 4 - Systems quality
System Quality: Data Quality and System Errors
– What is an acceptable, technologically feasible level of
system quality?
Flawless software is economically unfeasible
– Three principal sources of poor system performance:
Software bugs, errors
Hardware or facility failures
Poor input data quality (most common source of business
system failure)
23. 5 - Quality of life
Quality of life: Equity, access, and boundaries
– Negative social consequences of systems
Balancing power: Although computing power helps
decentralizing, key decision-making remains centralized
Rapidity of change: Businesses may not have enough time
to respond to global competition
Maintaining boundaries: Computing, Internet use lengthens
work-day, infringes on family, personal time
Dependence and vulnerability: Public and private
organizations ever more dependent on computer systems
25. Computer crime and abuse
– Computer crime: Commission of illegal acts through use
of compute or against a computer system – computer
may be object or instrument of crime
– Computer abuse: Unethical acts, not illegal
Spam: High costs for businesses in dealing with spam
Employment:
– Reengineering work resulting in lost jobs
Equity and access – the digital divide:
– Certain ethnic and income groups in the United States
less likely to have computers or Internet access
