Abstract

Rapid growth in computing technologies has been witnessed in recent decades. Along with progress, serious ethical concerns have been raised. Issues of privacy, security, algorithmic bias, digital well-being, and the responsible use of artificial intelligence have become common. Students of computer science are expected to become future designers and innovators. They must be trained not only in technical knowledge but also in ethical responsibility. However, traditional curricula have placed more focus on programming, systems, and theory. Ethical aspects have often been left out or given little attention. To build responsible digital citizens, ethics must be included in classroom learning. This chapter focuses on the need to integrate ethics into computing education, and pedagogical practices, challenges, and strategies for responsible teaching have been discussed.
