, and working on communication skills [24],[25].As research discussed that undergraduate researchers could engage in their lived experiences formore authentic interpretations of data, we engaged our lived experiences, especially bothundergraduate researchers, through the writing of positionality statements. Positionalitystatements have been a growing phenomenon in engineering education research as part of theefforts to uncover researchers’ preconceived notions that can shape how they conduct theirresearch [26]. By reflecting on their positionalities, Alshanti and Thu as undergraduateresearchers engage their lived experiences as engineering students to interpret instructors’ beliefsand behaviors on test usage. This becomes the foundation of this
