This book explicitly addresses ethical dilemmas and issues that post-secondary ESL faculty commonly encounter and examines them in the framework of... social justice concerns. Ethics is defined broadly, to include responsibilities and obligations to students inside and outside the classroom, as well to colleagues, educational institutions, the TESL profession, and society as a whole. Scenarios in each chapter provide realistic and compelling situations for reflection and discussion. The authors then set out the issues raised, relate them to the classroom environment, and offer opportunities to examine them in a variety of contexts and to consider possible solutions to the dilemmas. Issues include testing, plagiarism, technology, social and political issues affecting students and the classroom, gift-giving, curriculum decisions, disruptive students, institutional constraints, academic freedom, gender, class, and power. Busy classroom instructors will find this book accessible, thought-provoking, and relevant to their daily work situations. It is not intended as a theoretical treatment of ethics and social justice in ESL, nor does it propose that ESL faculty teach morals or ethics to students. Rather, it is designed as a concise, practical introduction to ethical practice for both new and experienced ESL faculty in post-secondary teaching situations in the United States, for others interested in the ESL classroom, and as a text for TESL classes and seminars. Ethical Issues for ESL Faculty: *maps new territory in the field--ethical issues in TESL, particularly as encountered by post-secondary classroom teachers, are not often discussed in ESL publications; *makes the complex issues of ethics in the context of social justice accessible to TESL practitioners; and *includes useful resources, such as additional scenarios for discussion, an extensive reference list, and selected ethics-related Web sites.

As a text or supplemental text for students, or as a focus for discussion in supervision groups, this book may generate more questions than it answers... about common ethical dilemmas encountered by art therapists or therapists from other disciplines who engage clients in metaverbal treatment modalities. The author first introduces readers to deontological (legalistic), antinomian (unprincipled) and teleological (situational) approaches to ethical reasoning. He then proceeds to explain why, in virtually every instance, none of these approaches alone fully addresses every ethical issue. Instead of providing answers, however, the author challenges his readers to consider their options completely when determining their professional behaviors. This well-respected art practitioner and educator refers often to the standards and procedures established within the art therapy profession. He suggests, however, that therapists should frequently view even these standards only as guidelines as when engaging in their chosen professional arena. This work is filled with clinical vignettes and case illustrations that present ethical dilemmas, followed by thought-provoking discussion questions. Additionally, readers are given ongoing opportunities to engage with these issues through metacognitive, kinetic, and sensory activities. Topics that the author presents include therapists’ responsibilities to their clients and the work place; rights of artworks; the art therapist as an artist, therapist, and human being; professional supervision; maintaining professional boundaries; responsibilities to research and to the profession; dealing with ethical violations; advertising; private practice; and potential multicultural and diversity issues.

Applied ethics has been gaining wide attention in a variety of curriculums, and there is growing awareness of the need for ethical training in general.... Well-publicized ethical problems such as the Challenger disaster, the Ford Pinto case and the collapse of corporations such as Enron have highlighted the need to rethink the role of ethics in the workplace. The concept of applied ethics originated in medicine with a groundbreaking book published in 1979. Business ethics books began to appear in the 1980s, with engineering ethics following in the 1990s. This volume now opens up a new area of applied ethics, comprehensively addressing the ethical issues confronting the civil aviation industry. Aviation is unique in two major ways: firstly it has a long history of government regulations, and secondly its primary focus is the safety of its passengers and crew. For decades commercial aviation was viewed in the same manner as public utilities, and thus it was highly regulated by the government. Since the Deregulation Act of 1978, aviation has been viewed as any other business while other experts continue to believe that the sudden switch to deregulation has caused problems, especially since many airlines were unprepared for the change. "Ethical Issues in Aviation" focuses on current concerns and trends, to reflect the changes that have occurred in this deregulated era. The book provides the reader with an overview of the major themes in civil aviation ethics. It begins with theoretical frameworks, followed by sections on the business side of aviation, employee responsibility, diversity in aviation, ground issues regarding airports, air traffic control and security, as well as health and the environment. The contributors to the volume include both academics doing research in the field as well as professionals who provide accounts of the ethical situations that arise in the workplace.
