In particular,we are struck by the fact that minimal interpretation of The X-Files accompanies the formalstatistical and qualitative assessments of audience responses. Respondents assign descriptiveadjectives (“strong,” “intelligent,” “confident”) to the character of Dana Scully, but neither thoserespondents nor the study’s authors otherwise interpret the series’ dialogue, visual construction,or narrative structures. While it is understandable that many discussions of STEMrepresentations would reflect the empiricist, positivist epistemologies of the disciplinesthemselves, we maintain that the interpretive lenses of cultural and media studies are at least asurgent.

The HCD for communities approach builds onthe empathic precursory steps described in HCD for users and Design Thinking [34]. The PBLunit tasked students to design a fictitious truss bridge at one of three candidate sites at a nearbycommunity. The PBL unit was ill-structured in that their selection of any candidate site impacteddisparate stakeholders thus requiring research on the community, interviewing real communitymembers to understand their wants and needs, and a deliberative learning

An empathy map, a design thinking tool, was used by investigators toanalyze each interview, identifying needs and insights about students’ engagement in eachcourse. Based on this initial understanding of student learning challenges, researchers generatedideas to improve learning. Participants were then invited to join small focus group discussions toshare their feedback and contribute their own ideas on the reimagined learning experience.From researchers’ reflections and collaborative discussions, three themes emerged in relation tofundamental learning problems

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

. ‘Concrete Experience’ describes when a student is exposed tonew information or reinterprets prior knowledge. ‘Observation and reflection’ captures when astudent reflects on new or reinterpreted information. ‘Forming abstract concepts’ is the nextstage where reflection develops into a new idea or modification of an existing idea. The finalstage of ‘testing in new situations’ describes when active experimentation takes place and astudent applies the idea to the real-world [35]. Kolb believed that a student attains newknowledge of new concepts through new experiences, i.e., “Learning is the process wherebyknowledge is created through the transformation of experience” [35].Figure 1.Experiential learning cycleMethodsA qualitative approach was used to

Students who are not able todevelop an alignment in a given discipline in higher education may change majors or drop out toseek a sense of belonging elsewhere.Diversity is one of the greatest challenges to the engineering profession today. Manyengineering schools struggle to attract and retain a student population that reflects the diversityof the general population. One of the key reasons cited for students leaving STEM is theperception of a chilly climate, especially by those who are members of underrepresented groups[3].
