relationship and interplay among the three members of the sub-team, and with this goal in mind, I decided to conduct a focus group rather than individualinterviews (Procedural Validation, Process Reliability). This follow-up focus group serves as akey data source for one chapter of my dissertation. I would have the thick, rich descriptions ofthese three students’ cross-disciplinary development without this additional data source(Procedural Validation, Communicative Validation).ConclusionThroughout this audit trail, I have shared my real, raw process of conducting a qualitativedissertation study in engineering education. I have included challenges I faced, set backs I had toovercome, and decision points that emerged while I was entrenched
