This document discusses various ethical concerns related to technology use. It begins by defining ethics as standards of right and wrong that guide human behavior. It then examines ethics in education, technology, libraries and for digital learners. Key topics covered include intellectual freedom, privacy, plagiarism, copyright, cyberbullying, internet filtering and acceptable use policies. Guidelines are provided around defining objectionable content, using intellectual property, and communication misuse. The role of teachers and librarians in promoting ethical and responsible technology use is also addressed.

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.
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.

– Ethics refers to well based standards of right
and wrong that prescribe what humans
ought to do, usually in terms of rights,
obligations, benefits to society, fairness, or
specific virtues.

3. Ethics in Education?
National Education Assocation:National Education Assocation:
– Commitment to the Student
– The educator strives to help each student realize
his or her potential as a worthy and effective
member of society. The educator therefore works
to stimulate the spirit of inquiry, the acquisition of
knowledge and understanding, and the thoughtful
formulation of worthy goals.
– Commitment to the Profession
– The education profession is vested by the public
with a trust and responsibility requiring the
highest ideals of professional service.

and the use of technology.
4. Digital Access: full electronic participation in society.
5. Digital Commerce: electronic buying and selling of goods.
6. Digital Law: electronic responsibility for actions and deeds

9. KY Guidelines
• Best practices for appropriate use of technology
• Generally, employees and students think of
best practices only in the sense of electronic
mail and internet use. It must be understood
that any Acceptable Use Policy also extends
to: computer hardware and peripherals; software;
network access; storage devices: databases, files, and
other repositories of information in electronic form.
Best practice applies to use while onsite and when
using remote access (from home, conferences, while
traveling, etc.).

10. 3 aspects of acceptable use
1.1. Access to “objectionable materials”Access to “objectionable materials”
– How do you define “objectionable” or
“inappropruate”
– What sanctions do you put in place to “punish”
or as a deterrent?
– Is blocking and filtering censorship?
1.1. Use of intellectual propertyUse of intellectual property
– Copyright vs. “fair use”
– Plagiarism vs. citing sources
1.1. Misuse of communicationMisuse of communication
– Cyberbullying

11. Internet filtering
What Are We ProtectingWhat Are We Protecting ThemThem FromFrom??
– No one disputes the need to protect kids from
the harm that lurks online. What's at issue is
whether or not mandated internet filters are
the best way to achieve those safeguards-or
whether the filters aren't up to the task and
are actually interfering with the educational
mission by obstructing use of important Web
2.0 tools.

15. Cyberbullying
CyberbullyingCyberbullying
– They may not call it cyberbullying.
Students may say they got “dissed” on
Facebook or that someone flooded
their phone with mean texts. Even little
kids have been known to hack into
Club Penguin to sabotage each other’s games.
– The answer isn’t forbidding technology, say
experts, so much as teaching kids right from
wrong. As a teacher, you can be a powerful force in
promoting a climate of respect. Educate yourself
and be on the lookout for signs that cyberbullying
is taking place, because you may be the trusted
adult a student turns to for help.
