IRB review of class projects Holly Carpenter 06 Nov 1995 12:57 EST

Our IRB recently received a complaint regarding a class research project.
The project involved collecting data for instructional purposes (a statistical
demonstration), rather than for research purposes as defined by the CFR.
In discussions at conferences, I have heard from other campus which do
review some or all class projects.  Unfortunately, no names stuck in my
mind at the time.  If anyone from a campus that does review instructional
projects would be willing to respond, I would like to find out what triggers
an IRB review, who must file (each student or just the faculty member), and
who reviews the project on your campus.  Thanks.
