Question

An experiment is conducted in a middle school. students in the experiment group receive special tutoring in math while students in the control group participate in a regular math class. on the math achievement test at the end of the year, the students in the special tutoring group score higher on math skills than the students in the regular math class. a parent complains about the ethics of this experiment. what ethical issue would the parent likely raise?

Answer 1

The parent would probably like for his/her student to also be in the special tutoring class. Parents are known to encourage their children to do well in school. When the parents saw this way of teaching, they wanted their kids to also be a part of the special tutoring class.
