Abstract
In a study which examined how newly qualified teachers and
social workers conceptualize and incorporate asynchronous
technologies in their professional and private spheres, variation
in active participation on social media among the participants
reflected a spectrum of opinions regarding the implications of
online interaction for new professionals. The extent to which online
interaction can overlap with ethical expectations attaching to
professional roles is an emerging topic in the research literature.
This study focused on the activities and experiences of newly qualified
professionals. In this article, ethical issues are examined in
three categories, namely formation, maintenance, and ending of
online relationships.
