Technology is a tool to facilitate learning and when used appropriately it can have remarkable effects on early childhood education. Technology and interactive media promote learning and development when used intentionally and within the framework of developmentally-appropriate practice to support learning goals and expand educational opportunities for all children, students and teachers use information technologies every day in the academic environment to perform different educational
activities. The use of information technology (IT) has also raised new ethical issues. These technologies provide many benefits, but the unethical use of IT by students and teachers raises a major cyber-ethics and professional ethics debate in educational institutions. The purpose of ethics is to help us behave in an honorable way and live in a way that preserves the fundamental values that make us fully human.
