Workshop goal and outcomes This workshop is designed to provide education and training so participants can write an IRB protocol for a SoTL study. Participants will be able to: Share basic information about the IRB process at ISU Explain when an IRB is needed for SoTL research Discuss ethical issues in conducting SoTL research Complete necessary IRB protocol for a SoTL study Find useful resources about IRB for SoTL research

Why do we need an IRB? To protect human subjects who participate in research. To meet federal regulations which protect human subjects in research and apply to all institutions receiving federal funding. To uphold “best practices” in research.

How do you define “human subject” How do you define “human subject”? (or How do I know I need IRB approval?) Any living individual about whom a researcher conducts research and obtains Data through intervention or interaction with the individual Or identifiable private information or records

What is the IRB Executive Committee? Presidentially appointed and charged with autonomously carrying out federal regulations as they relate to the protection of human subjects. Typically has between 12-15 members which are all faculty/researchers including a faculty Chair. Regulations mandate that a community member also be assigned to the board.

What is the role of the IRB Department Representative? Department Reps are the frontline, discipline specific reviewers for each department Primary responsibility is to catch basic problems with the protocol to save the PI time and to determine and recommend the level at which it should be reviewed.

What is a research protocol? A written description of a planned research activity in sufficient detail to allow for the review of the proposed research activities by the IRB Format and the information needed is detailed on the IRB protocol form.

What is the review process? It is the process by which the members of the IRB weigh the risks of the research activities against the possible benefits. There are three levels of IRB review Exempt Expedited Full

What populations are protected? Cognitively impaired Minors Elderly Pregnant Women Prisoners Economically Disadvantaged Chronically/Terminally Ill

What are the general ethical issues with using human subjects? Informed consent Right to privacy Protection from harm

What are some ethical practice issues related to SoTL specifically? Data collection from own students Obtaining consent Required assignments for course used for research purposes Using data collected during the semester Confidentiality issues Others?

What are key ethical themes in studying teaching and students’ learning? Power Coercion Fairness Privacy
