First, more students need to be attracted to pursue college-levelstudies in the STEM fields. Second, once those students are attracted to a STEM field,the colleges and universities must provide an attractive, nurturing environment designedto allow a wide range of students to succeed, while still providing a rigorous technicaleducation.The College of Engineering and Applied Science (CEAS) at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (UWM) has generally been able to attract as

byconvergent thinking and both types of thinking have been explored for an appropriate amount oftime. The act of developing an engineering design process, which is a balance of divergent andconvergent thinking strategies, can be an obstacle to problem solving and is not intuitive. It is forthis reason that teaching the engineering design process and helping students overcome thisobstacle is necessary in engineering education.Using Video as DataVideo recording technology is a data collection instrument which allows researchers to collectboth auditory and visual information and re-enter the study environment even after the study isdone [1, 18].

This combined effectseverely hinders the quality and number of domestic scientists and engineers produced by theU.S., thus inhibiting the country’s competitiveness in the global economy’s technology sector. Inorder to address this issue, the concept and a functional prototype of a tunable educationalmodule has been developed. The uniqueness of this approach follows from the module’scapability of modifying a single engineering activity to meet time and student skill-levelrestraints as well as the mentors’ or teachers’ time and effort constraints; i.e., tunability.A module was developed in order to implement and test the concept of tunability.
