understanding of student experiences across sites ofwork, and to protect students in meaningful ways.IntroductionConducting research that involves students is fraught with ethical and justice concerns: are thestudents being coerced? Are the students worried that they’ll be punished for something theysay? Will students feel pressured to participate? These questions are amplified when the studentsat hand are from marginalized and minoritized groups and when those students are asked tospeak about their experiences within the classroom. Scholars across engineering education havebuilt projects that report out on student experiences, and all of these implicitly or explicitlysuggest that ethnically and racially minoritized (ERM) students experience trauma
