MORAL EDUCATION FOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS IN THE CONTEXT OF THE FOURTH INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION – CURRENT SITUATION AND SOLUTIONS

Tran Thi Kim Oanh

Abstract


In the context of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, high school students have opportunities to access knowledge and develop skills through technology. Yet, they also face ethical risks as the online environment entails potential dangers. In reality, the current moral education curriculum remains overly theoretical and lacks practical elements; parents and society are not adequately equipped to provide proper guidance, while teachers lack the necessary skills and tools to teach digital ethics. Additionally, the legal framework for protecting children in the digital space is still incomplete. To address these issues, it is essential to innovate the moral education curriculum by incorporating essential digital skills; families and society should play a more active role in guiding students; teachers need further training in digital ethics and better teaching tools. Strengthening the legal framework will also help students develop comprehensively, fostering awareness and responsibility in the digitalized environment.
