IRB, Participants, MathematicsAbstract
Our research institutions in the US do an excellent job of both protecting participants and allowing researchers to ask and answer new questions. When a researcher embarks on a journey to examine educational spaces in another country, how does and IRB protect or hinder research attempts? This paper documents the journey of one researcher examining the line between researcher and friend. Questions are posed about protection of participants, power of the IRB, and how data might be collected or shared.
