现代性语境中的道德教育

探讨道德教育无法回避现代性语境。工具理性的宰制、价值个体化的张扬和感觉欲望的高涨是现代性的基本特征,它们导致了道德教育的存在危机。而现代道德教育不仅未能积极应对现代性的挑战,反而持守价值中立、娱乐化和工具化的立场,这是现代道德教育的沉沦,是其存在的深层危机。现代道德教育急需深刻的自我启蒙。

青少年道德教育环境的“代”之维

青少年正处于道德观形成的关键时期,环境对青少年的道德成长有着非常重要的影响。在青少年道德教育环境中,“代”环境是一个不能被忽视的环境纬度。道德教育从代际伦理的角度看,是一个上一代对下一代进行道德示范与传递和下一代对上一代进行道德反哺的互动过程。因此,青少年道德教育是在“代”环境下进行的。然而,“代”环境的不良因素必然会导致青少年在道德教育中与上一代产生“代沟”,所以优化“代”环境,使青少年进行有效的道德继承并最终形成自己的道德观。

Social Media and Education： Ethical Considerations in an Electronic Age

This paper first explores the concepts of values and ethics, utilizing a social work framework. It proceeds to examine various dilemmas involved in communicating with others via social media tools. Historic boundary issues between students and faculty are discussed, as well as emerging dilemmas that are becoming prevalent within electronic communicative networks （e.g., Skype, Facebook, Myspace, Linkedln, Twitter, and Texting）. The need for policy guidelines within academic environments in the use of social media is emphasized, Similar to the National Association of Social Workers （NASW） Code of Ethics, Arizona State University （ASU） is cited as a model in providing some structure regarding staff responsibility and unethical conduct within its academic setting. An enhancement of these guidelines to include electronic communication is recommended. Guidance is necessary to promote responsible communication, as the right to privacy, freedom of speech, and anonymity are all illusions of invulnerability.
