Activity Based Learning, Cognitive Outcomes, Affective Outcomes, Behavioral Outcomes, Learning OutcomesAbstract
Activity based learning (ABL) is apprehended to be a promising approach that improves student learning in higher education. Empirical studies on ABL with a focus on student have been revealed cognitive outcomes, affective outcomes, behavioral outcomes and challenges in implementation. Future researches should investigate more about student learning outcomes and implementation of ABL for knowledge utilization and management.
