QUESTION 3
Koeber (2005) evaluated the use of multimedia presentations (PowerPoint) and a
course website (Blackboard) for teaching introductory sociology at a US
university. One group of students acted as the experimental group and was
taught using these two ways of presenting learning materials simultaneously
while the other group acted as control group and did not experience any of the
methods. No random assignment was made, but in several respects the two
groups were comparable. The researcher used a quasi-experimental design for
this research.
Based on the research above, discuss any FIVE (5) ethics of a researcher in
conducting the research. Support your answer with proper citations and
