I find the ESRC funded Social Science Research Ethics web resource (11) a useful introduction, particularly for ethics and participatory methods. This may relate particularly to the MUITEL (resource 10) call for more participatory methods in mobile learning research. See http://www.lancaster.ac.uk/researchethics/5-1-Intro.html
