Methodology: This was a fundamental descriptive correlational method. In this study, concept analysis method was used. In this regard, first, the preconditions and characteristics of ethical sensitivity, with emphasis on Weaver's studies (2005) was explained, and then, based on these preconditions and attributes, some approaches were presented to develop the teacher students’ education on ethical sensitivity. Findings: Regarding the analysis of ethical sensitivity through the research backgrounds, it can be stated that the purpose of the education and development of this concept is to assist students in accepting and analyzing the views of students, answering them, identifying and interpreting ethical issues, and finally, justify, reflex and anticipate the consequences of its ethical actions, and using methods that are effective in maintaining the student's personality coherence. Conclusion: ethical sensitivity and explaining the methods to develop it on student-teacher education can lead to the behavioral contradiction of the educators and lead to less emphasis of ethical sensitivity among the educators.
