This study may be different from the others. Where the study society was 41 students from second year students from the electrical engineering department at the Islamic University in Gaza (42) and faculty members (17). All members of the community were contacted for a small number, but the questionnaire was retrieved from 17 male students, 10 female students, and 5 teaching staff members. The following statistical methods were used: frequency and percentage, arithmetic mean, standard deviation, relative weight, correlation coefficient, Alpha Cronbach test, and use of independent testing to compare student and faculty responses with faculty members and parents.
