Presently the instructional model for internet ethics education is modeled after the integrated morality. The model is based on the assumption that ethical awareness will lead to ethical activities which is based on the theory that cognition is correlated to the behavioral domains. But the side effects of the information society in the cyber space increased even when the education for the awareness of ethics in the cyber space has been taught more aggressively than before. In this study, the relation of the cognition for information ethics and the ethical behavior in the cyber space was analyzed in order to find out the implications for the effective internet ethics education model. The tools used are the 'DIT (Defining Issues Test)' to measure the behavioral ability in the physical world, the Information Ethics Judgment to measure the behavioral ability in the cyber space, and the self diagnostic tool of 'Internet ethics awareness' to measure the level of cognitive knowledge for internet ethics. The correlation of three measures was analyzed. The results were college students' levels of ethics from three tools from are considerably low. Moral judgement and information ethics judgement were not correlated which means that the behavior in the physical world was not necessarily correlated to the behavior in the cyber space. The three measurements were not statistically significantly correlated. Therefore the cognitive awareness for the information ethics were not necessarily correlated to the ethical behavior in the cyber space. Ethical cognition and the moral behavior need to be taught with equal emphasis as they do not have strong correlation.

Recently, since the importance of the information communication ethics education for primary and secondary schools has being highlighted, researches and new instructional materials have been published actively. On the other hand, with the advance of e-learning, the various kinds of educational methods which consider the characteristics and the requirement of students are being developed. The educational method for Information Communication Ethics education is no exception. If the practical method for Information Communication Ethics education which considers students' requirements is developed, then a better educational effect can be acquired. In this paper, we decompose instructional design features into 4 components such as goal, model, contents, and media in order to design a better instruction for Information Communication Ethics education. And then, we analyze the relative importance of the instructional design components by using Conjoint method based on our questionnaire result. Finally, we propose an instructional design method for Information Communication Ethics as well as examine the differences among the instructional design components.
