Marginalized Knowledge: An Agenda for Indigenous Knowledge Development and Integration with Other Forms of Knowledge

To Whom should Information Ethics be taught?

Carbo (2005:27) believes that information ethics should be expanded to become a component of information literacy programs for all students, beginning in the elementary undergraduate curricula, to advanced education programs. In addition, Carbo believes that much more continuous education programs for information ethics are needed for practioners, not only information professionals, but for those in other disciplines (similar to work on health–related information underway in medical education programs). This would include teaching the teacher, those who will work in elementary and secondary education, and those designing, managing and building information systems and services. In addition to students taking information ethics courses, many other students should take courses that have an information ethics component to them (Carbo, 2005:27).
