Lee, Wincy Wing Sze; Chan, Carol Kuai Kuen – Asia-Pacific Education Researcher, 2018
A plethora of work has been done to examine the dynamics of learning in higher education contexts to foster positive learning outcomes. The 3P model (Biggs in Teaching for quality learning at university, Open University Press, Birkshire, 2003) is one theoretical model that has been well researched. However, much of the work to date has focused on…
