I require my design students to follow this set of requirements:
"Rules of Conduct
References to and usage of someone else's material shall be accounted for in a list of references in submitted course work. This applies to information from, for example, books and web sites, as well as personal communication. It applies to direct quotes, paraphrases and summaries and also code, scripts, templates, style sheets and images. Oversight to do so will lead to the grade Fail and will be reported for trial to the disciplinary committee of the university.
Personal Integrity
Make sure to have consent from people depicted in text or image in the course work, and make sure that these people are aware of the purpose and possible future usage of your work."
For user studies I borrow ethical guidelines for social science research and psychology.
