“Computer ethics education not as a moral education but as a field worthy of

study in its own right.”

Computer Ethics is a must when it comes to computer studies. Knowing
dos and don’ts makes a lot of difference. Technology continues to arise,
therefore, there will be a new policy every time. Having the same basic
knowledge is not enough. It is also possible that computer ethical issues arise
when policy frameworks contradict each other. We could not resolve such
issues merely by creating more policy.
We can remediate moral education to computer studies, but it is not
enough to sustain especially in digital world. Computer ethics should be
studied and focused on its new and own field. We should spend time and effort
to learn and study this field. There are a lot of dangers in the cyberworld. This
leads to the lack of knowledge and integrity. Furthermore, lack of knowledge
and integrity will have a big impact to your behavior and personality. And we
don’t want that.
The ethical and technical concept of computing are interdependent.
Ethical issues are best understood in their social context, and the technical
concept of computing are best understood in the context of the underlying
technical detail. Having a new computer ethical field, users can increase their
motivation and deepen their understanding.
The main point and task of Computer Ethics is to guide in decision
making process and determines what should be done and what should not be.
We cannot stop technology from rising, but we can adapt to its changes. So, to
fully guide people, we need to fully understand and comprehend, to do that we
need a field and context for such big topic.
Having these kind of approach helps users a lot. Giving time and effort to
learn is a must. Computer-literate persons are sometimes dominant in their
professions. Furthermore, Ethics itself is a topic and has a large field and
context. Computer Ethics should have the same. When we give less time to
ethics, we can vision the outcome clearly. Same goes with Computer Ethics.
This lesson helps us build and shape our personality and behavior. Skipping
these lessons will lead into computer-illiteracy and will produce unexpected
outcome.

Comparing this into the Law, there is a saying that “Ignorance from the
law excuses no one.” This only means that if someone breaks the law, he or she
is still liable even if they had no knowledge of the law being broken. So why
give lesser time to these computer ethics?
In conclusion, we give emphasis in studying computer ethics for it is our
shield and knowledge when it comes to physical and digital worlds. Learning
the right and rules and regulations will be a great help to your career and
journey, invest time and effort to understand because this will prepare you for
the professional life.
