Further, in this analysis about trying new teaching methods it was key to learn aboutproblem solving, teamwork, contingency management, alternative and analysis costs, and finally,schedule control to improve the knowledge of the students. First, Engineers, by definition, areproblem solvers. Whether they are involved in analytical, experimental, computational or designwork, engineers solve problems [26], According to Ubidia et al [27] every problem-solving studentcharacterizes for the following, highly effective problem solvers possess a distinct set of qualitiesthat enable them to tackle challenges with efficiency and precision. They invest ample time inreading, gathering relevant information, and

Ithas become a valuable tool, automating processes within the construction industry, which lagsbehind other sectors regarding productivity and efficiency.
