John is a first year History teacher at a small, public high school. The students enjoy his class

because he engages them in lively discussions and asks them to prepare and present material rather than just lecturing to them the entire period. The principal's teaching philosophy differs, however, and he tells John to be more authoritative. He says, "The students should not be presenting material or have any say in the structure of the course. If you continue to teach in this manner, we may not be able to renew your contract next year." John must way the value of his student-centered teaching style with the need for pleasing someone else to keep his job. He decides that he cannot compromise his teaching style, and he will look for a school that appreciates and will allow him to practice his philosophy. Which of Johannesen's ethical standards did John use to make his final decision? A. Human perspective B. Dialogic perspective C. Political perspective D. Situational perspective
