What are the ethical issues presented by technology in education?
Computers are now everywhere in our society and are even implemented into the education of students. So, educators need to make sure that technology in the classroom is used wisely and ethically. A few of the ethical issues presented in education by technology use are plagiarism, indiscriminate use of technology to the detriment of other skills, anonymity & falsehoods, getting homework done by others or finding the answers online, and in my opinion laziness on the part of both students & teachers because everything is readymade. Therefore there is no creativity being used. With this said, it is the teacher’s responsibility to demonstrate computer ethics in the classroom.
