I suggest you approach it like you would any school project. Google its definition, look it up on Wikipedia and the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy. Start with the basics - figure out what morality is and what is it needed for. Then move on to different moral philosophies out there and how they relate to other branches of philosophy.
I would caution against simply finding a book on "introduction to ethics" and going with it. Such books usually advocate for a particular moral philosophy, whereas studying all the other views out there comprehensively would allow you to form your own views on the subject.
