Abstract
Caring has multiple meanings in a research process: We care to be ethical and just to our participants, we care to hear multiple contributions and create a better understanding of a particular topic, we care to make a difference with our research. Caring is also embracing the responsibility for the participants who made themselves available to help us to better understand our subject of study.In this presentation researchers address how an online Graduate Institution demonstrated its care and commitment to the ethical treatment of human subjects during a research process. Presenters will discuss the topics of IRB requirements, processes, and education in a distance-based environment. At the end of the session, attendees will acquire a better knowledge of the IRB definitions, check points, and procedures required to conduct a study in a distance-based program and/or with subjects participating online.
