ABSTRACT
Faculty must add a very important fact in their teaching and learning of communication ethics: their students' understanding of the real world may not be their professors' understanding of it. Students are telling them the rules of the Game demand that you take care of Number One first and worry about ethics later. Faculty are tempted to mourn their failure to teach the relevance of communication ethics to students until closer scrutiny reminds them that they play the Game themselves. Faculties think the key to learning and teaching ethical communication is to be aware of systems of ethics that may apply to whatever situation they may find themselves in. They explain the following topics in which communication ethics issues are raised every day: health communication, religious communication, environmental communication and education communication. Ethical communication is fundamental to responsible thinking, decision making, and the development of relationships and communities within and across contexts, cultures, channels, and media.
