undergraduate students involves the development of skills which are considered standard practice within a profession or field and includes information-gathering processes that are typically a part of the normal relationship between a student in a field and the people the student interacts with in that context.” http://www.ryerson.ca/about/vpresearch/student_researchers.html Students or faculty who are in doubt about the nature of a particular project (i.e. research versus professional practice) should review the Flowchart to Assist Undergraduate Researchers available at: http://www.ryerson.ca/about/vpresearch/student_researchers.html Students may also be invited to participate in the research process as study participants. In such instances, students may wish to familiarize themselves with their rights as research participants, which can be found at: http://www.ryerson.ca/about/vpresearch/rpp_guidelines.html Note: The above standards are meant as guidelines or principles, and do not exhaust a researcher’s responsibility to be sensitive to the needs of subjects or to put those needs ahead of the need to acquire new knowledge. Any student or faculty member who has questions about the ethical standing of a particular project is encouraged to consult the Ryerson Research Ethics Board (REB). The REB committee membership can be found at: http://www.ryerson.ca/research/reb/.
