research, ethical issues, problem-solving skills, andinterpersonal competencies such as collaboration were among the top competencies thatemployers sought when hiring new employees in the civil engineering and constructionprofessions [21].Construction engineering students require hands-on experience to improve these competenciesnecessary for their future careers. Although College graduates often overestimate their abilities,yet employers report a lack of basic soft skills, including communication, critical thinking, andproblem-solving, among this group of potential job candidates [15]. A significant proportion ofindustry managers perceive the communication skills of engineering graduates to be inadequate[6]. Collaborative learning is a process

engineering education as it supports diversity of ideas,allows students to critically evaluate their work, identify areas for improvement, and develop adeeper understanding of the concepts they are learning [1], [2]. It encourages students to takeownership of their learning. It fosters a growth-mindset, where students are proactive in seekingout opportunities for growth and development. This self-motivated approach to learning preparesstudents for lifelong learning and is essential for success in their careers as engineers. Forinstructors, reflection is equally important as it provides valuable insights into the learningprocess of students. It helps instructors to assess the effectiveness of their teaching methods,identify areas for improvement, and
