Examining Codes of Ethics
Adopted Code of Conducts:
These are the three Codes
of Ethics that are most meaningful to me.
I feel that if you keep these 3 near and dear to your heart it will take
you far.
We shall demonstrate our respect and concern for
children, families, colleagues, and others with
whom we work, honoring their beliefs, values, customs,
languages, and culture. Code of ethics (2000,
August).
My Take
-I think that it is
important to respect those around you and their views. Sometimes we tend to get so wrapped up in
what we think, and we become closed minded when it comes to other suggestions
that could help us become even greater.
Just because an idea doesn’t go in line with our thinking doesn’t make
it a bad idea. There’s something to
learn from everyone!
We shall recognize our responsibility to improve the
developmental outcomes of children and to
provide services and supports in a fair and equitable
manner to all families and children. Code of ethics (2000, August)
My Take
-I think this goes under
the concept of teach one teach all. As an
educational professional we have to keep in mind that everyone child no matter
their race, or income background deserve a good education.
We shall collaborate with families and colleagues in
setting meaningful and relevant goals and
Priorities throughout the intervention process
including the full disclosure of the nature, risk, and
potential outcomes of any interventions. Code of ethics
(2000, August)
My Take
-I believe that the more
you incorporate a child’s family into their educational development; the
chances for that child to succeed become greater. By getting a family involved, you may find
that you have more support and someone to help enforce what you are trying to
teach.
