A useful ethics framework for mathematics teachers [PDF]
An argument is presented that mathematics teachers would benefit from an ethics framework that allows them to reflect upon their position regarding the teaching of ethics within mathematics. We present such a framework, adapted from Chiodo and Bursill-Hall's (2018) levels of ethical engagement for mathematicians, with discussion of its applications and
