Ethical Considerations for the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning

I’m just putting together a handout of references for the workshop I’m co-presenting this week at the SoTL Symposium.  I know how research ethics is such an exciting topic which everyone LOVES to read about so thought I’d share the list here too  😉

Cheers,
Janice

“The teacher’s responsibility to hold students’ educational interests paramount provides an important perspective when considering ethical issues for research in teaching and learning” (MacLean & Poole, 2010).
