This research paper aims to examine the current state of socialmedia use in engineering education, including the benefits, challenges, and potential risksassociated with its use. It will also address the primary research question, "What are the currenttrends of social media platforms usage in engineering education?"

These numbersdo not just disincentivise students from pursuing their desired majors and their passionsbut also suggest a need for an immediate change to improve disciplinary education, ifnot completely returning to an integrative multidisciplinary approach.The vitality of multidisciplinary education is therefore evident. However, the approachtowards this collaborative education is just as important.

At the high school stage, the educational pathways are primarily categorized by ‘STEM’vs ‘non-STEM’, either for choice of subjects studied in high school, or by the choice ofpostsecondary majors. However, at the postsecondary education stage, pathways are defined bychoice of engineering disciplines and persistence in an engineering discipline till completion.

toward individual groups [42]. Among thetargeted strategies developed to increase the number of minority students in engineeringprograms is the nationwide growth of outreach programs like summer camps, weekend familyevents and other informal education opportunities in which students can engage. In general,many researchers consider educational “outreach” to be informal, out-of-school experiences forstudents [43].One possible reason for the lack of easy-to-locate research in minority engineering recruitment isthe loose, poorly defined use of the terms “outreach” and “recruitment” in engineering educationresearch. For the purposes of this discussion, we utilize “outreach” to mean informal interactionswith K-12 students that are generally geared

Research indicates that engaging students incollaborative activities is associated with increased student persistence, and improves studentlearning outcomes and retention [1, 2]. Successful and productive collaborations are rarelyguaranteed, however they can be greatly improved by a careful design of the task [3] and the useof available technologies, to both promote collaborations among students and support theinstructors implementing these activities [4, 5, 6, 7].

Many AE graduates areconfronted with these fragmentation problems in real-world construction projects, such as poorcommunication and lack of cooperative consciousness or experience [2]. Compounding this, the problemof fragmentation also exists in the education field that leads to certain consequences and a cyclic educationdeficit problem. Studies from researchers illustrate that most engineering students were taught technicalknowledge via isolated and, thus domain-specific courses with limited to no teaching of integratedapproaches. This limited educational focus causes a lack of knowledge and experience in collaboration forstudents entering the workforce [3]. Moreover, the education model of the AEC
