Social Risks for Students
Is there a possibility that your activity could cause a specific student or a group of students to feel ostracized from the class activities? Is it possible that your study could reveal information to the class that might be embarrassing or harmful to a particular student? Will the student feel pressured into participating in the activity even if they do not want to? If a student does not participate in a study (either because they choose not to or their parents don’t allow them to participate), will that student feel left out of the group? Social acceptance can be a big issue, particularly for students. Please be sensitive to any issues that may disrupt the social structure in a classroom.
