School Law Ethics 2017: The Educator's Code of Ethics and Slippery Ethical Slopes for School Law Practitioners
Contains material from Apr 2017
The first presentation (Code of Ethics) was only fair. The second presentation was very good.
Great job. Wonderful way to make ethics enjoyable and practical. Loved the news inserts and the 3 y.o. attorney at the end!
It is difficult to provide an accurate evaluation of 2 separate courses with 3 presenters. As such, the scores below represent an average. The attorney ethics presentation was more informative than the educators' ethics presentation.
The presentation should be at a much higher level for lawyers who regularly practice in this field. Much of the presentation involved reading a statute and the standards we have all read numerous times. More time should be spent analyzing situations in which the standards apply or or recent cases where educator conduct violates the standards.
Educator ethics presenter mostly read rules, but offered few examples or analysis. Session on Slippery Ethical Slopes was much better.
