However, the students will be chosen at random. A demographically-similar control group will be selected whose teachers did not receive such misleading information. The students' grades and teacher perceptions of their behavior will be recorded throughout the year. IRB response: The potential problems with this research are that it is conducted upon minors without the minor's consent. It could also seriously impede the student's educational careers, likely forcing the experimental group to experience difficulties in school and causing them psychological trauma later in life. Critical criteria for any form of research is that the "risk to subjects are minimized" and the "risk to subjects are reasonable in relation to anticipated benefits" (Marsden, S. & Melander n.d.). Here, the risk of damage to the children is very high, compared with the likely modest value of the research. Subjects should not be subjected to undue stress and the issue of lasting harm to the experimental subjects suggests very strongly that this type of research is unethical.

Then, the teachers would be asked to write their observations of the classroom behavior. It would be determined if teachers who had received the potentially prejudiced information beforehand had a more negative view of the students labeled as disordered vs. The teachers who were not prejudiced by the prompt: both sets of teachers would see the same videos. This would ensure that the education of the students was not compromised and only the perceptions and behavior of the teachers would be put under scrutiny.

Vaughn et al. (2003) report that the identification of LD students has increased upwards of 200% since 1977, with explanations ranging from a likely outcome of the growing knowledge field, to LD as a field serving as a sink for the failures of general education to meet the needs of students of varying abilities. The study investigators find that not only is the heterogeneity of the identified students quite wide,

Management Communication - the Role of Workplace Interpersonal Communication Communication, in simple terms, refers to "the process of sending and receiving messages" (Bovee & Thill, 2008, p. 2). Baack (2012); Bovee and Thill (2008) agree that there are two major facets of organizational communication -- internal communication (exchange of ideas and information within the boundaries of an organization) and external communication (exchange of information beyond an organization's borders).
