This thesis examines the mechanisms for implementing pedagogical deontology principles in virtual learning environments. The study focuses on professional responsibility, ethical communication, confidentiality, fairness, and respect for learners' dignity in digitally mediated education. The research employs theoretical analysis, comparative interpretation, and pedagogical modeling to identify mechanisms supporting ethical professional conduct. Particular attention is given to transparent communication standards, digital assessment procedures, personal data protection, inclusive instructional practices, and reflective monitoring. The findings establish a conceptual framework integrating normative, organizational, technological, communicative, and reflective mechanisms. The proposed approach emphasizes that effective implementation of pedagogical deontology requires the coordination of institutional ethical standards, teachers' digital competence, and learner-centered educational practices.
