PURPOSE OF GUIDELINES AND EXAMPLES
The aim of this document is to assist you as an applicant when completing the Ethics
application form and to speed up the process of obtaining Research Ethical Clearance. Study
the guidelines before you start to complete the application form and use the examples to assist
you with writing letters requesting permission to conduct research or obtaining consent from
adults or assent from learners. The examples are provided for your benefit and may be used in
your application but remember to adapt it according to your study. If you feel comfortable
developing your own letters, you are in no way limited to using the examples provided in this
document.
2.
GUIDELINES
2.1
Before completing the application form, study the UNISA POLICY ON RESEARCH
ETHICS. It is available at the following link:
http://www.unisa.ac.za/cmsys/staff/contents/departments/res_policies/docs/Policy%20on%20Re
search%20Ethics%20-%20rev%20appr%20-%20Council%20-%2020.06.2014.pdf
2.2
The UNISA Policy on Research Ethics should be read in conjunction with other relevant
UNISA guidelines, policies and relevant legislative frameworks (UNISA Research Policy, UNISA
Policy for conducting research involving UNISA staff, students and data, and UNISA Intellectual
Property Policy).
2.3
The UNISA Policy on Research Ethics stipulates that ethics clearance may not be
granted retrospectively. Retrospectively means with the benefit of hindsight, which implies that
you may not start with the research before ethical clearance has been granted. Once you have
started the actual research process (not your literature study) it is too late to apply for clearance.
All questionnaires, interview schedules, focus group discussions, letters to obtain consent and
assent must be ethically cleared before you commence with the research.
2.4
When UNISA staff, students or data form part of your research you also need to obtain
permission from the Senate Research Innovation and Higher Degrees Committee (SRIHDC).
Please note that permission should be obtained from SRIHDC after ethical clearance has been
obtained from the CEDU REC. The clearance certificate should be appended to the SRIHDC
application. Applications to SHRIDC need to be submitted through the Office of Research and
Graduate Studies College of Education [AJH 6-18]
2.5
Important information to keep in mind:
•
The application form and supporting documents will enter a pre-approval phase where
the research ethics chairperson or secretary will review the application for technical quality and
ensure that all sections are complete. If not, it will be returned to the applicant.
•
Decisions reached by the CEDU REC could be:
o
Approved
o
Referred back – requires modification
o
Referred back – requests further information or clarification
o
Disapproved with reasons.
•
Decisions will be communicated within 10 working days of the meeting.
•
If the application is referred back the applicant should respond to the committee‟s
feedback within two months of receiving the formal feedback. A memorandum should
accompany the revised application. All amendments should be clearly highlighted in the revised
application form and supporting documents. The application will be removed from the CEDU
REC agenda if no feedback is received within two months. A new application will then have to
be tabled.
•
The CEDU REC will issue an ethics clearance certificate for use in the final copy of the
dissertation or thesis which is submitted for examination. Some journals request a certificate
from an REC as proof of obtaining ethical clearance. The REC certificate will be signed by the
Executive Dean of the College of Education as well as the Chairperson.
2.6
When you complete the 2015 official application form, remember to:
•
Ensure that you use the latest template [©2015] Applications made on previous versions
of the template cannot be accepted.
•
Complete all sections of the application form in full.
•
Indicate “not applicable” or NONE when you are sure that the section does not apply to
your application. Do not leave any section open.
•
Proof of registration (in case of students) must be attached as appendix A.
2.7
Research ethics risk assessment
UNISA is currently working towards an on-line submission system to be introduced in the
foreseeable future. It will include a risk assessment section which all applicants would need to
complete. It is thus important to start using the risk assessment tool when you complete the
CEDU REC application form. It will alert you to the ethical concerns which you have to take into
consideration or need to address. USE THE RISK ASSESSMENT TOOL BELOW TO
INDICATE YOUR RISK CATEGORY IN THE APPLICATION FORM (refer to no 3.3 of the
application form).
RISK ASSESSMENT TOOL
The checklists below have been designed to guide researchers to assess the potential risk of
proposed research. There are four risk categories, but due to the type of research which is
conducted in the College of Education, the focus will be on Categories 2, 3 and 4 as research
often involves vulnerable participants, such as children under the age of 18 years.
The categories are displayed in the table below:
Risk category Definition
Category 1: Negligible risk The probability or magnitude of harm or discomfort anticipated in
the research is not greater in itself than that ordinarily experienced in daily life.
(The concept of „daily life‟ used as a benchmark should be that of daily life as experienced by
the average person in the country the participants are living in).
Category 2: Low risk Research involving human participants directly in which the only
foreseeable risk is one of inconvenience.
Category 3: Medium risk
Research in which there is a potential risk of harm or discomfort,
but where appropriate steps can be taken to mitigate or reduce overall risk. It is not expected
that the research will cause severe risk or negative physical, emotional, social, cultural or
political consequences.
Category 4: High risk Research in which there is a real and foreseeable risk of harm and
discomfort, which may lead to a serious adverse event, if not managed in a responsible manner.
If any items on the ethical risk checklist in Tables 2 and 3 are ticked “YES”, the research may be
likely to involve medium risk to the participant. The applicant needs to indicate how participants
will benefit from the research and describe the steps that will be undertaken to mitigate the risk.
High risk: If a number of items on the ethical risk checklist in Tables 1, 2 and 3 are ticked “YES”,
the research may be likely to involve significant risk to the participants, researcher(s),
institutions or UNISA. The applicant needs to indicate how participants will benefit from the
research and describe the steps that will be undertaken to mitigate the risk.

Comments:
2.8
It is suggested that students apply for ethics clearance after the literature review has
been completed and the research design is being finalised. It is at this stage that the student will
be considering the procedure to negotiate consent to conduct the research and will be designing
the research instruments to be used in the research. Primarily these are the documents which
must be reviewed and cleared by the Research Ethics Committee (REC).
2.9
All relevant supporting documents (letters requesting permission to conduct the study,
consent forms AND the research instruments like interview schedules, questionnaires and
observations protocols) must be appended. Ensure that these documents have been language
edited. These documents must be in English and the language used for the research (if other
than English). As these documents are sent to institutions, schools, teachers and parents, it is of
the utmost importance that it is should be of an undisputable quality.
2.10 A checklist of what should be included in an informed consent letter and a child assent
form is appended to the CEDU REC application form. Please use the checklists to ensure that
you have covered all the important aspects. Make sure that the language used in these letters
is comprehensible and age appropriate (specifically assent letters).
2.11 Sign and date the ethics declaration (Section 7). A signature is required, thus if you do
not have an electronic signature, submit a scanned copy of the declaration. Once you have
signed and dated the application submit it to your supervisor and if he/she is satisfied with the
quality of your application, it will be signed by the supervisor and submitted to both the CEDU
REC Chairperson: Dr Madaleen Claassens (mcdtc@netactive.co.za) and a copy should also be
sent to the secretary, Ms Keba Mothabela (mothakm@unisa.ac.za).
2.12 The application should be a single document only. Separate documents cannot be
accepted. To insert a word or pdf document into the application document, please follow these
steps:
1.
Open the word document i.e. the application.
2.
At the top of the word document toolbar click on “insert”.
3.
A new toolbar opens.
4.
On the right hand side of the toolbar you will see and icon “objects”.
5.
Click on this.
6.
It provides you with a menu – the first one is “Adobe Acrobat Document” that you can
use to insert a “pdf document”.
7.
Browse for the document on your computer and click on the file name you want to insert.
8.
The pdf file opens into your word document.
9.
Click close on the pdf document, and the word document will appear with the pdf
inserted
10.
If it is another “word document “that you insert, follow the procedures 1 to 5 then select
“text from file”.
11.
Follow steps 7 and 8.
2.13 Applications will not be accepted from students and no communication between the REC
and student will be made unless the student is a member of the REC.
2.14 It is the supervisor‟s responsibility to ensure that the application is complete and meets
the requirements. Incomplete applications will be returned without comment.
2.15 It is the supervisor‟s task to support the student in the completion of the application and
to check the application before submission. If an application adheres to the requirements as
explained in the guidelines and the UNISA Policy on Research Ethics, there is no reason why
an application should not be approved during its first submission.
2.16 Please submit applications electronically to the chairperson before or on the last
WEDNESDAY of the month for tabling at the following month‟s meeting. Because of the large
numbers of submissions received on a monthly basis, late submissions cannot be accepted.
2.17 The ethics clearance certificate must be included in the final copy of the dissertation or
thesis which is submitted for examination
2.18 Academics requesting ethics clearance for research follow the same procedures as
above, but submit their applications directly to the REC chairperson.
3.
COMMUNITY ENGAGED RESEARCH
If you are involved with community engaged research it is of the utmost importance to read
PART 4 of the UNISA Policy on Research Ethics. Special attention should be given to fair
subject selection, favourable risk-benefit ration, informed consent and community involvement in
the research.
4.
EXAMPLES OF LETTERS AND CONSENT FORMS AND TABLE OF CONTENTS FOR
APPENDICES
Feedback from the REC shows that many students find it difficult to write letters of consent in
meticulous English, which for most of us, is a second or third language. As it is not only the
name of the researcher that appears in the letter, but also the name of UNISA, we place a few
examples of letters and consent forms in the document to assist students and supervisors. We
hope that you will find it beneficial and that it will contribute to streamlining the process.
Supervisors are free to use their own examples and styles to guide students. This is just an
additional tool to support the students. The following examples can be found in this document:
•
A letter requesting permission to conduct research
•
Parental consent for participation of minors in a research project
•
Learner assent form: secondary school (can be adjusted for primary school learners)
•
Interview: adult participant consent
•
Covering letter for a questionnaire
•
Focus group confidentiality
Each example will appear on a new page.

EXAMPLE OF A LETTER REQUESTING ASSENT FROM LEARNERS IN A
SECONDARY SCHOOL TO PARTICIPATE IN A RESEARCH PROJECT
This letter can be adjusted for primary school learners.
Title of study: ....
Dear ….
I am doing a study on <…> as part of my studies at the University of South Africa. Your principal
has given me permission to do this study in your school. I would like to invite you to be a very
special part of my study. I am doing this study so that I can find ways that your …..<teachers,
counsellors, coaches, etc.> can use to <……> better. This will help you and many other
learners of your age in different schools.
This letter is to explain to you what I would like you to do. There may be some words you do not
know in this letter. You may ask me or any other adult to explain any of these words that you do
not know or understand. You may take a copy of this letter home to think about my invitation
and talk to your parents about this before you decide if you want to be in this study.
What the child‟s participation entails should be inserted here. This is an example: I would like to
show you a video recording of a grade 8 natural science lesson. After you have watched this
video, I will ask you to answer a multiple-choice test of eight questions. These questions are all
about the lesson you will have watched. I will mark your test afterwards, but your name will not
appear on the test or answer sheet and it will not count for any marks at school. I will not share
your test results with your teachers or parents. Watching the science lesson and completing the
test will take you about 30 minutes.
I will write a report on the study but I will not use your name in the report or say anything that will
let other people know who you are. You do not have to be part of this study if you don‟t want to
take part. If you choose to be in the study, you may stop taking part at any time. You may tell
me if you do not wish to answer any of my questions. No one will blame or criticise you. When I
am finished with my study, I shall return to your school to give a short talk about some of the
helpful and interesting things I found out in my study. I shall invite you to come and listen to my
talk.
If you decide to be part of my study, you will be asked to sign the form on the next page. If you
have any other questions about this study, you can talk to me or you can have your parent or
another adult call me at:…………………….. Do not sign the form until you have all your
questions answered and understand what I would like you to do.
