Ethical considerations in educational research include informed consent, confidentiality, and avoiding harm to participants. Researchers must ensure that participants are fully aware of the nature and purpose of the research and agree to participate voluntarily. Protecting the privacy of participants is crucial, particularly in sensitive studies involving vulnerable groups. Furthermore, researchers must be committed to serving the best interests of participants and avoid any practices that could jeopardize their well-being, ensuring that findings contribute positively to the field of education.
