As Teamwork is acritical skill that employers seek in new graduates, especially within STEM fields wherecollaboration is often essential. College students, particularly in STEM programs, are required towork in teams early on, allowing them to develop these skills and become competent teamplayers before entering the workforce. For computer science students, who often work in group-based learning environments, teamwork plays a vital role in fostering not only technical skillsbut also interpersonal and intercultural competencies. The main objective of this research is toexplore the relationship between three key variables: teamwork regulation, effectiveness, andtheir impact on the
