This research examines the effect of utilising strategic thinking skills in process based learning and its employment of self regulation towards learning performance. This research links online learning to strategic thinking skills by exploring at how strategies can manage learning performance and self regulation. This research used a pre-post test quasi experimental as the main data gathering method. Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaires (MSLQ) was used to investigate motivation and learning strategies. This study expand s previous research by including in its outcome, the use of thinking strategies as means to inculcate strategic thinking skills. It also sustained the conduct of enhancing strategic thinking skills strategies through self regulation as established in the research. It also measures online learning and conventional approach. Based on the pilot test outcome, the main study tested the hypothesis that using strategic thinking skills would assist engineering students in self regulation practice and to perform better in process based learning. Results from test scores and questionnaires supported the hypothesis.
