MAINARDES, Jefferson. Ethics in education research: overview and challenges post the CNS nº 510/2016 Resolution. Educação. Porto Alegre [online]. 2017, vol.40, n.2, pp.160-173. ISSN 1981-2582.  https://doi.org/10.15448/1981-2582.2017.2.26878.

This paper presents an overview of ethics in research in the area of education and the main challenges after the approval of the CNS (National Health Council) 510/2016 Resolution, which deals with the applicable ethical norms to Human and Social Sciences research. We argue that the current norms and procedures of the ethical review of the CEP/Conep (Committee for Ethics in Research/National Commission of Ethics in Research) System are highly bureaucratic and express a limited view of ethics in research. We also point out that ethics in research need to integrate the education process of researchers and that it would be relevant to elaborate a guiding document in the area of Education with the purpose of instrumentalizing the researchers of the area on the discussion of ethics in research and the dilemmas involved in the current ethical review system (CEP/Conep System). This paper indicates that the creation of a system of ethical review outside the area of Health continues on the agenda of the scientific associations of Human and Social Sciences.
