John is a first year History teacher at a small, public high school. The students enjoy his class

because he engages them in lively discussions and asks them to prepare and present material rather than
just lecturing to them the entire period.

The principal's teaching philosophy differs, however, and he tells
John to be more authoritative. He says, "The students should not be presenting material or have any say
in the structure of the course. If you continue to teach in this manner, we may not be able to renew your
contract next year." John must way the value of his student-centered teaching style with the need for
pleasing someone else to keep his job. He decides that he cannot compromise his teaching style, and he
will look for a school that appreciates and will allow him to practice his philosophy. Which of
Johannesen's ethical standards did John use to make his final decision?
A. Human perspective
B. Dialogic perspective
C. Political perspective
D. Situational perspective

C
