Codes of Conduct: Values, Norms and Ethical Dilemmas

Compiler: Margit Sutrop

Editors: Katrin Velbaum, Tiia Kõnnussaar, Kristi Lõuk

Language Editor: Tiina Alekõrs

Designer: Merle Moorlat

Centre for Ethics, University of Tartu and Estonian Language Foundation 2016

Language: Estonian

The publishing of this book was supported by the Values Development of the Estonian Society 2009–2013 programme, extension for the years 20152020, of the Ministry of Education and Research.

It has been ten years since the Handbook of Codes of Conduct (2007) was published by the Centre for Ethics. The handbook was received well – all copies were quickly sold.

Within the past ten years, the number of professions and organisations that have adopted their own code of ethics has increased considerably. While compiling the new book, we counted 217 codes of ethics valid in Estonia. Many organisations and professional associations have updated and improved their codes. There is noticeably more interest in creating codes of ethics. There are also more discussions on why the codes of ethics are needed and how to increase their impact.

We hope that the book will aid those who wish to create or update their own code of ethics and also those who wish to systematically develop their values in their organisation – to formulate and discuss their values and to support ethical development of the members of the organisation.

In this book, experts from different fields discuss who and why need codes of ethics, who and how should formulate codes of ethics and how to achieve real impact as a result of the adopted documents.

Centre for Ethics has produced The Good School Handbook in cooperation with experts and practitioners. We began the process with roundtable discussions with school owners and parents, social pedagogues and school psychologists, teachers and pupils, school leaders and support staff, activities coordinators and librarians. 66 people connected to school life in one way or another participated in nine roundtable discussions where we discussed what makes a school a good school.

The roundtable discussions provide the handbook with its structure – there are seven chapters that approach good school from different perspectives. What these chapters have in common is their focus on different roles in school and viewing supportive and encouraging feedback as a key issue.

In the end of each chapter, the reader – be it a teacher or parent, pupil or principal – can find questions to ponder. The chapters are illustrated by examples of issues discussed at the roundtables, examples of analyses submitted to the Good School contest, and summaries of two roundtable discussions.

The perspective of practitioners is introduced by 11 short interviews with teachers, principals, a librarian, an activities coordinator, a lunch lady, a social pedagogue and a school psychologist.
