Abstract

To enhance the quality of higher education and foster the professional development of teachers, this article examines the intrinsic connection between the ethical literacy of university teachers and the quality of education. This study systematically examined the components of teachers’ moral literacy and their impact on teaching quality, scientific research quality, and social service quality. The research found that the ethical qualities of university teachers (such as caring for students, academic integrity, professionalism, etc.) have a significant positive promotion effect on the quality of education, while the lack of ethical literacy may restrict the improvement of education quality. Specifically, teachers with high ethical qualities can more effectively stimulate students’ motivation to learn, enhance their scientific research and innovation levels, and improve the effectiveness of social services. Based on the research results, this article suggests that teachers’ ethics literacy will be further improved through strategies such as strengthening teachers’ ethics education, improving system construction, and creating a good atmosphere, thereby promoting the overall optimization of the quality of higher education.
