Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to provide an extensive analysis of several studies on how to make ethical decision- making in the context of education. A systematic literature review was used in order to gather data from related studies, literatures and researches support the present study. The data analysis was qualitative in nature; hence it provides a clear presentation of concepts/ideas in ethical decision making by categorizing and comparing papers according to various salient features. There were three (3) major findings of the study; (1) ethical decision making of school administrators/principals, (2) ethical decision making of teachers in the teaching and learning process and (3) students' decision-making in education for sustainability-related school activities. The school administrators and teachers must uphold high moral values (professional code of ethics), implement fair and unbiased decision-making, develop ethical leadership in managing the school, and incorporate effective decision making in addressing ethical dilemmas. In addition, students/learners should also develop their decision-making skills in order to be equipped and achieve positive outcomes based from their own decision.
