Respect
The principle of respect is cited in numerous ethical codes (AMA, 2001; IUPSYS, 2008; CPA, 2017; Dingwell, et.al., 2017; etc.), for example, acting toward students with respect and dignity (BCTF, 2020), "respect for people" (TBS, 2011), "mutual respect" (Folan, 2020), "respect for the composite culture of India among students" (NCERT, 2010), or "respect for the rights and dignity of learners" (Stevens & Silbey, 2014). Though sometimes paired with autonomy (DHEW, 1978:4, cited above) it is often presented quite differently. The Ontario College of Teachers code states that respect includes trust, fairness, social justice, freedom, and democracy (OCT, 2020).
Respect can also be thought of as promoting "human dignity and flourishing", which AI4All summarizes as "who we can become (autonomous self-realisation); what we can do (human agency); what we can achieve (individual and societal capabilities); and how we can interact with each other and the world (societal cohesion)" (Floridi, et.al., 2018:7). The last two 'commandments' of the Computer Ethics Institute's Ten Commandments of Computer Ethics recommend computer professionals "think about the social consequences" and to "ensure consideration and respect for other humans" (CEI, 1992).
