Ekué, Amélé Adamavi-Aho2020-06-252020-06-2520209782889313594http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12424/3952378The result of ethics in higher education is no more and no less than instilling empowerment, passion, compassion, and a sense of purpose and longevity. Ethics cannot be neutral, but encompasses the entire human commitment to the entire created world and, therefore, the entire plausibility system that guides all decision-making processes. On the one hand, ethics is reflective, since it originates from intellectual stimulation and depends on continuous chains of discourses, and on the other hand, it is oriented towards action, prone to being applied in specific settings. This fundamental understanding allows the challenge and opportunity of ethics in higher education to unfold in conjunction with three main points, each associated with a brief case vignette: Ethics in higher education as a formative and informative task; Ethics in higher education as a promotional task; Ethics in higher education as an invitation task.engAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/ethicshigher educationtraininginformationcommitted reflectionembodied presenceconsensus buildingdefenseinvitationEducation and ethicsBook chapter
