Business ethics may be defined as "the principles, values and standards that guide behavior in the world of business." The importance of ethical awareness in business transactions and education is widely recognized, and evidence shows that ethics education can influence decision making in the workplace. As a result, colleges of business often integrate ethics into the content of courses. Compelling evidence indicates that the study of ethics in college raises the awareness of undergraduate students to ethical concerns. Whatever approach to teaching ethics is utilized, appropriate learning goals for an ethics course would be to raise student awareness of ethics, assist students in recognizing that all decisions have ethical aspects, and provide a framework for ethical analysis. To that end, this article considers a constructivist approach to teaching ethics to undergraduate students that emphasizes active student involvement and allows for the application of ethical concepts and decision making to matters of concern to students.
