Abstract

The International Journal of Designs for Learning (IJDL) is pleased to publish this Special Section on Ethics in Learning Design. This Special Section includes six design cases that highlight different aspects of ethical considerations that instructional designers make as they go about their everyday work. These design cases include instances where ethical tensions were amplified or made central by the author for critical discussion as well as cases where ethical considerations, principles, or frameworks played a key role in enabling design work to occur in a more ethical manner.
