ESTABLISHMENT OF ETHICAL PEDAGOGY, AN ALTERNATIVE TO THE ABUSE OF TECHNOLOGIES IN THE EDUCATIONAL PROCESS

Abstract

In a context where students are increasingly immersed in virtual environments, it is crucial that education not only focuses on the acquisition of technical knowledge, but also promotes ethical principles that guide the responsible use of these technologies. Ethical pedagogy seeks to balance technological integration with the integral development of the student, promoting social and emotional skills that are essential for their formation as critical and responsible citizens. In view of this, the present article had as a general objective to analyze the impact of ethics in the framework of understanding the abusive use of ICTs in educational processes. To do so, it was carried out from a qualitative methodological structure, from the interpretative and argumentative structure that was framed in a documentary review design. As a result, it was specified that this new pedagogical perspective emphasizes the importance of training educators in the ethical use of technologies. Teachers must be trained not only in the digital tools available, but also in how to use them in ways that benefit learning and promote an inclusive and equitable environment. This involves reflecting on the ethical implications of the content that students have access to and developing media skills that allow them to discern between truthful and false information. By empowering educators with this knowledge, a more conscious and responsible educational environment is created, where student well-being is prioritized.
