However, all the information related to engineering experiences are only disseminatedtraditionally in the form of peer-reviewed scholarly manuscripts, which has limited impact to those whochoose to read such literature. Given the current socio-political climate in the aftermath of two pandemics(i.e., racism-20 and COVID -19), greater awareness of the ways students from traditionally marginalizedgroups in higher education interact and make sense of their environments is of paramountimportance.

We see an opportunity to extend panel discussions to have enduring impact bybroadly distributing the data synthesized during the panel discussions. The use of paneldiscussions as a research endeavor has the potential to broaden researchers' ways of knowing, yetknowledge transfer from panel conversations to peer-reviewed publications has to this point beenminimal.This paper highlights a methodology for analyzing panel discussions, discourse content, andpanelist reflection to produce research results

[4]found that for many students, coursework can be an external motivator as it imposes deadlinesand encourages them to interact with fellow students. Whereas, students perceive the writingphase as the most difficult. Common concerns with this last portion of the doctoral programinclude not having the necessary writing skills to communicate effectively, while beingchallenged to publicly demonstrate competence.

This outcome of the analysis ofnarratives technique often consists of a set of themes that the researcher can use to makeinferences about the sample they studied. Meanwhile, the outcome of the narrative analysistechnique is a story, ordered chronologically, that synthesizes various data into a cohesiveelement.

Oral exams also allow students to receive feedback from a contentexpert who can clear up misconceptions.

ZPD was proposed by Lev Vygotsky as a sociocultural theory that describes learning anddevelopment [10]. The ZPD conceives learning as the space between what a learner can dowithout assistance and what the learner can do with competent assistance. A common way totranslate implications from the ZPD to the design of learning interventions is by providingstudents with scaffolding. Scaffolding refers to all types of support and guidance offered in theclassroom either by the instructor or peers or supported by technology [11].In the context of higher education, scaffolding refers to teaching techniques or tools that supportstudents' learning.

In past research and curriculum development, engineering teachers haveimplemented curriculum around STEM-focused games [1], such as for urban planning [2],transportation engineering [1], chemistry education [3] and computational thinking [4]. Due tothe increased interactive engagement of games compared to lecture [5], [6], [7], engineeringeducators have utilized games to positively impact students' learning.

Thus, the study of social belonging confidence in students, particularly through professionalsocialization, is a key step in understanding persistence in the field of ML/AI. We study socialbelonging through the lens of confidence, another predictor of persistence [7]–[9]. We define socialbelonging confidence as how confident a person feels that they will fit in with the social and culturalaspects of a profession and develop meaningful relationships with their peers. Belonging uncertainty,defined by Walton and Cohen [10], may be interpreted as a lack of this confidence.Lower levels of confidence have been found to negatively affect persistence of women and girls
