Our increasingly digitalised world of life presents us with new ethical challenges that are highly relevant, especially in the context of education. Digitalisation leads to far- reaching consequences for our lives, society, communication, art, culture, work, science, health, economy, politics… How is a successful life possible under the conditions of digitalisation? What does it mean that digital communication is becoming an integral part of our lives? What influence do these changes have on society? Digital Ethics is a philosophical discipline and thematic extension of ethics. The tasks of Digital Ethics include, in particular, analysing the effects of digitalization on society and the individual, developing justifications for moral action and investigating and developing normative standards on the internet. Digital ethics aims, among other things, to promote reflective competence in order to enable people to recognize problems of digitalization and to work out solutions for responsible action. This entails a need for fostering media literacy that encompasses ethical reflection on the role of technology through philosophical dialogues.
