	As part of the charges for the tutorial, we created educational resources in terms of an introductory 30 minute presentation merging two of the authors' (Karen and Yulia's) lecture notes. We also created a number of problematic synthetic abstracts (based on real studies, but without the stigma that would be result from attributing a problematic abstract to an author) for participants to analyse. We also described materials such as the reviewing guidelines, [https://github.com/acl-org/ethics-reading-list ethics reading list], and an analyses of ''Ethical Considerations and Limitations'' sections in NLP/CL papers (contributed by Luciana Benotti) as part of the tutorial's open-source contents.
