When using [cdkDropListData] here gives me error on console that Can't bind to 'cdkDropListData' since it isn't a known property of 'div'.

I am new to angular so please avoid newbie behaviour

I already imported the CdkDragDrop in module.ts

This is the Component file.

import {Component, NgModule} from '@angular/core';
import {StudentModel} from '../model/studentRepository.model';
import {Student} from '../model/student.model';
import {CdkDragDrop, DragDropModule, moveItemInArray, transferArrayItem} from '@angular/cdk/drag-drop';


@Component({
  selector: 'student-selector',
  templateUrl: 'studentSelector.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./studentSelector.component.css']
})

export class StudentSelector {
  boys =  [];
  girls = [];
  constructor(private dataModel: StudentModel) {
    this.boys = dataModel.getStudents();
    this.girls = dataModel.getStudents();

  }
  get students(): Student[] {
    return this.dataModel.getStudents();
  }
  conva = [];
  
  drop(event : CdkDragDrop<string[]>){
    transferArrayItem(event.previousContainer.data,
      event.container.data,
      event.previousIndex,
      event.currentIndex);
  }
}

Here is the module file.

import {NgModule} from '@angular/core';
import { StudentModel } from './studentRepository.model';
import { SimpleDataSource } from './datasource.model';
import {DragDropModule} from '@angular/cdk/drag-drop';


@NgModule({
  providers: [StudentModel,SimpleDataSource],
  imports : [DragDropModule]
})

export class ModelModule {
  
}

Answer 1

The imports should be like this:

import {NgModule} from '@angular/core';
import { StudentModel } from './studentRepository.model';
import { SimpleDataSource } from './datasource.model';
import {DragDropModule} from '@angular/cdk/drag-drop';


@NgModule({
  providers: [StudentModel,SimpleDataSource],
  imports : [DragDropModule]
})

export class ModelModule {
  
}

and (see notes in the code)

import {Component} from '@angular/core';    <= NgModule removed
import {StudentModel} from '../model/studentRepository.model';
import {Student} from '../model/student.model';
import {CdkDragDrop, moveItemInArray, transferArrayItem} from '@angular/cdk/drag-drop';     <= DragDropModule removed


@Component({
  selector: 'student-selector',
  templateUrl: 'studentSelector.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./studentSelector.component.css']
})

export class StudentSelector {
  ...
}

Generally:
xxxModule should only ever be imported on module level, not on component level.

Also, as I mentioned in the comments:
It looks like your StudentSelector is in a different module than your ModelModule (at least it is not part of the declarations you provided). A component can only be used in the module that declares it (declarations-list) OR that imports another module which in return declares the component and exports it (exports-list).
