Ethics in the teaching profession Dr Panneer Selvam

A professional code of conduct demands attentiveness to continuing education requirements and career development. You must research new teaching methods, attend classes to maintain your certifications, consult colleagues for professional advice, participate in curriculum improvements and stay up to date on technical advancements for the classroom. It's your duty to ensure that your teaching methods are fresh, relevant and comprehensive. Teachers must engage in educational research to continuously improve their teaching strategies. Teachers spend hours with their students every day for a majority of their year. They have a substantial amount of influence on the development and growth of their students. Many children grow up remembering their favorite teachers fondly, and many find that particularly talented teachers gave them opportunities that they may not have otherwise encountered. A teacher's primary job is to elicit a passion for learning from their students--everything else is secondary.
