This paper presents an ethical framework designed to support the development of critical data literacy for research methods courses and data training programmes in higher education. The framework we present draws upon our reviews of literature, course syllabi and existing frameworks on data ethics. For this research we reviewed 250 research methods syllabi from across the disciplines, as well as 80 syllabi from data science programmes to understand how or if data ethics was taught. We also reviewed 12 data ethics frameworks drawn from different sectors. Finally, we reviewed an extensive and diverse body of literature about data practices, research ethics, data ethics and critical data literacy, in order to develop a transversal model that can be adopted across higher education. To promote and support ethical approaches to the collection and use of data, ethics training must go beyond securing informed consent to enable a critical understanding of the techno-centric environment and the intersecting hierarchies of power embedded in technology and data. By fostering ethics as a method, educators can enable research that protects vulnerable groups and empower communities.
本文提出了一个伦理框架，旨在支持高等教育中研究方法课程和数据培训项目的批判性数据素养发展。我们提出的框架借鉴了我们对文献、课程大纲和现有数据伦理框架的审查。在这项研究中，我们审查了来自各学科的250份研究方法大纲，以及来自数据科学项目的80份大纲，以了解数据伦理是如何或是否被教授的。我们还审查了来自不同部门的12个数据伦理框架。最后，我们审查了大量关于数据实践、研究伦理、数据伦理和批判性数据素养的不同文献，以便开发一个可在高等教育中采用的横向模型。为了促进和支持数据收集和使用的伦理方法，伦理培训必须超越获得知情同意，以实现对以技术为中心的环境以及技术和数据中嵌入的交叉权力等级制度的批判性理解。通过将伦理培养为一种方法，教育工作者可以开展保护弱势群体并赋予社区权力的研究。
