Engineers needtechnical skills but equally important for their careers, they need a broad set of professionalskills. Students and faculty both understand that time management skills are absolutelymandatory. Students were therefore asked, beyond time management, for their perception ofwhat other skills

By developing problem-solving skills, it is logical thatengineers will become more adept at troubleshooting problems. Research on troubleshootingproblem-solving has shown that experienced engineers differ from poor engineers’ primarily intheir strategizing to solve troubleshooting problems. Also, researchers have done studies on howto improve the troubleshooting performance of technicians in strategizing to solve a problem [12,13] . However, to date, much of the research has not been implemented as a part of the curriculumof technical engineering careers. Therefore, it is necessary to focus on

Though many educational research studies have assessedthe use of traditional and GSS technology learning tools separately for promoting STEMlearning, few have compared these two types of learning tools against each other.
