4.21 Research proposals turned in=> IRB drafts in process!

You turned in your research proposals along with an email where you gave me a heads up about:

what you thought went well
what you thought went not so well
what kind of feedback you want from me

We spent the rest of class working on IRB applications.  You created accounts (noting that it takes 72 hours for the permissions to go through), read through the expedited/exemption categories and identified where your proposals would land, and looked at the submission portal.

The rest of the class was a workshop.  You drafted your IRB materials, asked questions, and oveerall got a good start.

For next week:
Proposals returned with comments
IRB drafts due.  The complete IRB assignment includes:

• IRB application
• Informed consent form
• A/V consent form
• Debriefing form
• NIH training certificate

We will spend class talking about your research project.  Each of you should plan to talk through your proposal, including 

• the introduction (CARS moves)
• a detailed discussion of the research relevant to your project
• your proposed methods.

As a class, we will respond with support and suggestions.  

You are almost done!   Good class tonight and see you next week!
