| General ethics tools | 4W’s ethical framework |
|---|---|
| Universal principles | Contextual to AI-in-education |
| Static evaluation | Recursive – used at every stage (ideation → publishing) |
| Compliance-focused | Reflective and heuristic – asks educators to pause and surface trade-offs |
| Binary (right/wrong) judgments | Asks “what’s at stake? Who is affected? What is lost or gained?” |
