1 FLORIDA ATLANTIC UNIVERSITY SCHOOLS Research and Development Guidelines and Procedures for FAU University, Schools and Center Faculty Introduction The College of Education at Florida Atlantic University is fortunate to have four university schools and centers as laboratory research partners. The overall purpose of research and development efforts at Alexander D. Henderson University School, The FAU High School, The Karen Slattery Educational Research Center for Child Development, and Pine Jog Environmental Education Center is to further the mutual goals in terms of curricular development and research programs for the laboratory schools and centers and university faculty. The guidelines and procedures, and the call for proposals included in this document are intended to facilitate ethical, rigorous and beneficial research by and among faculty affiliated with Florida Atlantic University. This document is offered by the Florida Atlantic University Schools/College of Education Research Committee, a joint committee of faculty from the College of Education and the A.D. Henderson University School, in coordination with the Associate Dean for Research and Graduate Studies in the COE and the administration of the University Schools and Centers at FAU. Alexander D. Henderson University School (ADHUS) is a public school district functioning as a laboratory school located on the campus of FAU in Boca Raton. Within the context of an exemplary educational program for the students enrolled, the essential role of the school is to provide for educational research and curriculum development for service to public schools. It serves as a site for student field experiences and provides an excellent opportunity for teacher trainees to work with highly qualified master teachers in a model school environment. The FAU High School opened its doors to students for the first time in the fall semester of Students experience college level courses in the environment of the university classroom, laboratories, and support facilities. This highly selective program offers high school students (grades 9-12) the opportunity to earn high school credits and university course hours at the same time. The Karen Slattery Educational Research Center for Child Development is designed to provide a model educational environment for children of FAU students, faculty and staff, to provide educational opportunities in the teaching field and to provide research opportunities. The Pine Jog Environmental Education Center has the mission of developing, providing and modeling environmental education programs which foster an awareness and appreciation of the natural world, promote an understanding of ecological concepts and instill a sense of stewardship toward the earth and its inhabitants. Palm Pointe Educational Research Tradition is a unique partnership between Florida Atlantic University (FAU) and the Saint Lucie County School District (SLCSD). Through

2 utilizing research, developing challenging and relevant work, establishing school, home and community partners; we will provide all students opportunities to reach their full potential. Palm Pointe Educational Research School at Tradition (K - 8) opened its doors in the fall of As a charter laboratory school, it is a public school operated by FAU-Treasure Coast University Schools in collaboration with St. Lucie County Public Schools. They form a unique relationship with FAU providing program oversight, and a pioneering level of opportunity for inventive teaching methods and research. The school will be held to all state accountability measures including student performance, the FCAT, and meaningful research and grant support. Teachers and administrators for the new charter school will have the opportunities and encouragement to research new educational options by redefining course content, instructional methods and organizational framework. The school will also serve as a training ground for new and existing teachers serving the county s students. Possible Research Models and Designs in FAU Schools and Centers Some possible models for conducting research and development include, but are not limited to the following: a) Research proposed by university/college faculty, requesting use of a university school or center as a site and engaging pupils, teachers, and/or parents as subjects or /participants in the study. b) Independent research proposed by university school or center faculty, in the manner of action research or collaborative action research. c) Action research or collaborative action research proposed by university school or center faculty in collaboration or mentorship with designated university/college faculty. d) Doctoral research requesting use of a university school or center as a site and engaging pupils, teachers, and/or parents as subjects or participants in the study. Doctoral students may or may not be on staff at the university, university schools, or center. e) Cooperative research programs designed by university/college faculty, university school or center faculty/staff and pursued jointly. f) Curriculum or program evaluation. g) Multiple partner funded research that involves state or federal grant request for funding requirements. 2

3 Considerations for Prospective Researchers at FAU University Schools and Centers Prospective researchers should consider the following questions and address them when designing a research proposal: Will the proposed research have tangible benefits to students, faculty, and/or parents? Is the proposed research beneficial to the research and professional community? Will the proposed research provide additional assets, resources, or skills that improve teaching and learning? Will the proposed research involve time and participation by university school or center faculty/staff? How will the proposed research be shared with university school or center faculty/staff in order to ensure commitment and/or agreement? How is the proposed research consistent with the university school or center s mission, improvement plan, or strategic plan? How will communication occur with all participants and/or interested parties? How will the proposed research be disseminated? Will the proposed research be unnecessarily redundant? Will the proposed research do any potential harm to certain groups? Is the timing of proposed research sensitive to university school or center schedule/calendar? Are the resources sufficient for successful implementation or will implementation be contingent on external funding? Proposal Approval Processes The Florida Atlantic University Schools/College of Education Research Committee s role is to inform faculty and staff, clarify procedures, connect potential research partners, and serve as liaisons. The Committee does not approve research proposals. Final decisions are made by the FAUS administration after approval from the IRB. All research conducted at or with university school or center staff, pupils, or parents must be approved by the FAU s Institutional Review Board (IRB)/Human Subjects Committee. The process includes the approval of Department Chairs and the specific College s Dean or Associate Dean for Research and Graduate Studies. In addition, all research conducted at or with university school or center staff, pupils, or parents must be approved by the FAUS Director, Principal, and/or other administrator responsible for the FAU school or center. Lastly, researchers must comply with state laws regarding security clearance procedures within schools and centers. 3

4 Specific Approval Steps Make appointment to discuss proposed research with university school or center administrator(s) responsible for approval, addressing bulleted Considerations for Prospective Researchers in this document. Researchers should determine which faculty, staff, or parents will be needed to conduct the study. If there are questions or concerns regarding the proposed research, the FAUS director may consult the FAUS/COE Research Committee for advice. Submit proposal to university school or center administrator for preliminary approval. Researchers should submit proposal to IRB, with signatures of Department Chair, College Dean or Associate Dean for Research and Graduate Studies. When approved by IRB, the proposal should be resubmitted to the university school or center administrator. Conducting the Study and Disseminating Findings A mutually agreed upon timeline will be negotiated by the researcher and the FAUS or center director. All participants will be volunteers who have signed Consent Forms approved by IRB. Procedures will follow the IRB protocols. A mutually agreed upon document or presentation will be communicated to the FAUS school or center. The researcher also agrees to disseminate results to the school or center community in a poster board format.
