description Despite now long-standing recognition of the value and importance of the scholarship of teaching and learning, questions continue to be raised about how to satisfy the hybrid responsibilities of teaching and research. The key message of this paper is that instructor-researchers, educational developers, and research ethics personnel should consider two key guidance documents in tandem: the Society for Teaching and Learning in Higher Education’s statement on Ethical Principles in University Teaching (Murray, Gillese, Lennon, Mercer, & Robinson, 1996) and the Tri-Council Policy Statement: Ethical Conduct for Research Involving Humans (Canadian Institutes of Health Research, Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada, & Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada, 2014). Together these documents provide much needed guidance for teaching and researching ethically. Bien que la valeur et l’importance de l’avancement des connaissances en enseignement et en apprentissage soient reconnues depuis longtemps, on continue à se poser des questions pour savoir comment satisfaire les doubles responsabilités d’enseignement et de recherche. Le message principal de cet article est que les instructeurs-chercheurs, les conseillers pédagogiques et le personnel d’éthique de la recherche devraient prendre en considération deux documents principaux d’orientation en tandem : la déclaration de la Société pour l’avancement de la pédagogie dans l’enseignement supérieur sur les « Principes éthiques dans l’enseignement universitaire » (Ethical Principles in University Teaching - Murray, Gillese, Lennon, Mercer, & Robinson, 1996) et « Énoncé de politique des trois Conseils : Éthique de la recherche avec des êtres humains » (Conseil de recherches en sciences humaines du Canada, Conseil de recherches en sciences naturelles et en génie du Canada, & Instituts de recherche en santé du Canada, 2014). Ensemble, ces documents fournissent une orientation utile pour enseigner et mener des recherches de manière éthique.
