The format of the first ethics form was confusing, I wasn’t sure how to expand on what was already there for guidance. Additonally I kept putting off the ethics form as I wasn’t certain on the research methods I was going to use – because I was overthinking it. Once I got some feedback it was clear I was trying to do too much so I streamlined what was possible within the time that was left and just focused on the observe part of the action research cycle and if I had time to do reflect and plan then that was a bonus
Once I had a clearer understanding of the scope of my project I could tailor the ethics form with a bit more detail and methodical rigor, I just had to tidy up the format then it was ready to be signed off.
