Summary: Despite the burgeoning knowledge about the impact of trauma on learning, the perceptions and lived educational experiences of youth with trauma living has remained unchartered territory in the research literature. Such understandings, can be useful in understanding how to address the challenges faced by traumatized students in the classroom. The article we are reviewing today is titled ‘Student Perspectives on how Trauma experiences manifest in the Classroom: Engaging Court-Involved Youth in the Development of a Trauma Informed Teaching Curriculum’, written by Shantell West and her colleagues at the Wayne State University in Detroit.
