1)Ethics is the code of rules and conduct recognized in respect to particular actions or values. Such as the moral principles of an individual.
2)Ethics will affect my work as a teacher with the students and my colleagues because the code of ethics that I will have learned throughout the years leading up to teaching, will have a great impact on the students and colleagues surrounding me one day. A person's ethics will have a great impact on the people around you and you want those things to be positive.
3)Some pros and cons of being concerned with ethics are:
If the rules and guidelines are clear cut then students will know what to expect and there will be less of students getting into trouble, hopefully. If the rules and guidelines are not clear cut and the students do not recognize what is wrong or right, then you will have some problems. Another problem could start right from the beginning of your career. A con could be if the teacher is still in the student mindset. The teacher is now a teacher and needs to act like a teacher and not a student. If you are messing around with your students like a kid would do, you could get into trouble for being inappropriate.
Well said. :)
