A07 - Research in K-12 Settings

Tuesday, November 16, 2021
11:30 AM - 12:30 PM ET
Location: On-Demand
On-Demand Session CIP Accredited
Research conducted with students in elementary and secondary school settings presents specific considerations for IRBs and researchers. Using case studies, speakers will examine various topics as they relate to research conducted in K-12 schools. Session Note: This session was presented at AER20. We’re offering on-demand access during SBER21 for additional access to SBER-related content.

Learning Objectives:

  • Review considerations that affect research in K-12 settings
  • Discuss consent considerations (e.g., assent, parental permission, possible alternatives)
  • Go over the Family Education Rights and Protections Action, the Protection of Pupil Rights Amendment, and common misconceptions about the IRB’s role in ensuring investigator compliance with these laws
  • Share scenarios that may be encountered in the classroom (e.g., undue influence as a result of teachers as investigators, incidental subjects, how to respect the rights of students who do not wish to participate)
  • Explore the potential benefits of “flex policies” for institution
  • Address other IRB considerations (e.g., privacy and protection of data)
