Abstract
Connected to innovation, and which has also received considerable debate over the past while, is research ethics and ethical considerations when undertaking STEM education research. Ethical processes have become more formalised within institutions with increased regulation. In addition to the consideration of ethics as a potential limiter on methodological innovation in STEM education research, the role and purpose of ethics in research is socioculturally and socio-politically centralised in an era of mankind marred by grotesque inequities motivated by racism, colonialism, sexism, neoliberalism, ethnocentrism and the rise of extreme right-wing vulgarities, among others. Adopting such a critical orientation will encourage the broadening of research methodologies to examine and develop transdisciplinary research in STEM education as a distinct sphere. The chapter also presents some closing thoughts on the key concepts discussed in the preceding chapters of this book.
