SoTL (Scholarship of Teaching and Learning) IRB Review
天下足球网,球探比分 have created a SoTL-specific IRB Review form and consent form, specifically designed to fit with classroom-based research.
Educational research can be reviewed under the "Exempt IRB" category. Note, however, that the federal definition of an Exempt IRB Review does not exempt the project from IRB oversight. The "exempt" refers to exemption from follow-up review by the IRB, after the project has been reviewed and approved.
