Lakshman DasThis course provides ethical scientific conduct, plagiarism, publication ethics and other ethical aspects of research. The course provides interesting videos in relation to research ethics. Although some videos are difficult to understand because of accent, most of the videos are attractive and clearly understandable. Various internet links are given to provide study materials which are not so focused to provide concise, comprehensive information. Various assessment tools used are very appealing. -
