A Brief Discussion on Some Issues and Countermeasures of University Teachers’ Professional Ethics Cultivation in the “Internet+” Era

In 2015, Premier Li Keqiang proposed the “Internet+” action plan in the government work report at the Third Session of the 12th National People’s Congress. Over the past decade, China has undergone rapid development, and new technologies such as mobile internet, cloud computing, big data, and the Internet of Things, as envisioned in the report, have become widely popular. These new technologies have had a profound impact on higher education and university teachers, and have also set new requirements for the professional ethics cultivation of university teachers. To achieve the fundamental task of “cultivating morality and nurturing talents,” university teachers must first possess sufficient professional ethics cultivation. This paper will discuss some existing problems in the professional ethics cultivation of university teachers and attempt to propose solutions.
