ADVANTAGES OF LOGIC AND ETHICS FOR ME AS TEACHER TO BE
One of the subjects taken by the education students is the Logic and Ethics. As an
education student I know that there are lots of reasons why we are required to take this
subject. It may serve as a big help for me, as a teacher to be. It may bring lots of advantages as I
go on the teaching profession. As what I have learned, that Ethics is the science of what is moral
and immoral. The ethics refers to how the human made his actions in dealing with the society.
These actions either are moral or immoral. Through studying ethics, as a teacher to be, I may be
able to determine the right living and good moral characters. Such in dealing with my future
students, I may be able to teach and discuss with them the so called right living. Right living is
how an individual able to live in the respective society wherein he may serve as one of the
components of these and can contributes in it. Morality has been the foundation of every
human society. As a teacher to be, I may able to determine the actions of my students whether
it is a human act or acts of man. I have learned that when you say human act, it is the actions
perform knowingly, freely and voluntarily. And the acts of man refer to the involuntary actions
happen in men which are not within the control of the will of man. Not all actions are human
acts, an act of man become human act by knowledge and consent of the doer or the one who
performs acts. So I may be able to determine, if the actions of my students maybe an acts of
man or human acts. Ethics also concerned in moral obligations, that focus on what behavior is
right or wrong. Ethics also enrich the moral insights and it teaches the value of religion. I may
also share to my students the Christian morality which base on the Christian perspective.

2. Ethics also gives importance to human motivation. It gives motivation in a sense that, as I
teacher I may act as a role model to my students whenever they observe that I am aware of my
actions and these are an actions based on morality, my students may be able to follow and
motivated to do also such moral actions. Ethics also covers the classification of law such as the
eternal or divine law, natural law and human positive laws. I may also share with my students
the divine laws that they must know in order to follow such laws indicated by the Almighty God.
If I may determine and know such laws, I may handle myself to perform actions inside the
classroom with regard to certain laws in order for me to be vigilant if I ever step on the right of
my students. As ethics, point outs morality it also talks about conscience. Conscience is the
legal voice wherein my students have this in order for them to do what is a good action and
avoid the evil one. As a teacher, through ethics I may be able contributes to the moral
development of my students.
Along with the ethics is the logic which refers to the science of correct thinking. It is a
body of certain and proven knowledge which is obtained arranged in systematic manner. The
knowledge and principles of correct thinking one can think and reason easily, spontaneously
and correctly. Logic may help in classroom discussion in order for me as a teacher to evaluate
whether the certain arguments or reasons in dealing with my students are true or not. Logic is a
big help in constructing arguments especially when there is an interactive discussion between
me, as a teacher and to my students. I may be able to determine whether the statements in the
discussion are formally and materially valid, which shows a correct structures and patterns of a
statement or propositions and whether this statement is true. Logic also helps in understanding
the universal scope and the specificity of a thing with the use of the deductive and inductive

it’s purpose are to persuade. It recognizes bad reasoning led from the validity of the reason. It
also helps to develop critical attitudes of the students with the others. It gives awareness of the
ambiguity of the certain information or arguments presented. It helps to know which reasons
are presented not accordance to the realness of the thing. It may arouse doubts whether it is
true or not. It also motivate to value systematic approach in understanding certain issue.
Understanding a certain issue through several steps or in systematic way to solve it. Logic and
ethics points out that right thinking prepossess right living. So, it is essential in the classroom
setting.
