Along with the progress of the information society, it has been widely recognized that there is an urgent need to establish the curriculum for Information ethics in moral education in schools. The newly revised Curse of Study of Moral Education suggests that "Consideration should be given to the instruction related to information ethics in connection with the contents of moral education" while giving consideration to the developmental stages and characteristics of the students.
In this research we examine the products of model curriculum developed for the study for manners and rules of information society and develop moral education curriculum and materials for the class in order to nurture creative morality focusing upon the communication skills and abilities to transmit information proactively toward the world.
