Abstract:

This article introduces effective teaching strategies suitable for teaching engineering, accordingly students will be able to explain, find evidence and examples, generalize, apply analogies and represent a topic in a new way. There are several teaching methods that teachers may use to achieve the goal. Among several modern teaching methods such as active classroom, problem-based learning and more, some or all may fit the nature of engineering disciplines. Therefore this study aims at understanding the student’s point of view. In our technical society today, learning and teaching engineering is becoming more and more important. If teachers are going to begin teaching engineering they will, undoubtedly need some preparation beforethey begin. In this review, I look at subject matter knowledge, pedagogical knowledge, and expertise and discuss how, what has already been done in other fields.Conclusions about how subject matter knowledgeand content knowledgeimpact teaching and learning.
