Essay Instructions: For this class, you have designed a research proposal. From this proposal, you will now develop a consent form and ethics reflection to further your research and think of new ways as to how you will conduct research on your selected topic. This requires critical thinking. You will need to be creative in how you design your consent form to connect to the research project you have proposed. Feel free to abandon the aspects of your proposal which you do not feel will benefit your research assignment anymore, as well as to develop new methods of gaining research to create a thoughtful, creative, ethically sound, and innovative consent form/ethics reflection that is related to your chosen area of study.

"Consent Form and Ethics Reflection"

Length: Consent form, 1-2 pages; Ethics reflection, 4-5 pages.
This assignment has two parts:
1) Consent form (1 page): In this form you will clearly describe to
prospective research participants the nature of your study (why you are doing
the research) and the kind of involvement you will expect from them if they
decide to participate (what is the nature of their participation? how much time
will it take?). The aim of the consent form is to make transparent to potential
participants the purpose of the research, anticipated outcomes and any
potential risks or benefits they may incur as a result of being part of your
study. You must include a title for your study, some background for the
research, a discussion of methodology, and a discussion of how you will treat
the material your participants will provide (see attached appendix for an
example of an “informed consent” form). You must include, to the best of
your ability, any risks or challenges participants may face as a result of the
research and how you will protect participants from any ethical breeches.
2) Ethics reflection (4 pages): This part of the assignment requires you to
prepare a critical reflection on the notion of “informed consent” and ethics in
the research process. Is informed consent possible? What power relationships
shape the research process? How can researchers be more attentive to ethics
in the research process? You must draw 5 course texts (listed below) in the
preparation of your reflection on ethics. Other relevant sources may be included. A bibliography of works cited must be included.

Please adhere STRICTLY to the guidelines provided.
