| Summary: | The primary focus of the OBE-SCL curriculum implementation will be on what the
student had learned and not based on what the lecturers had taught. Thus, the student’s
learning style will play the significant role for the successful of OBE-SCL curriculum
implementation. The main purpose of this study is to investigate how motivation and
future time perspective on the student’s accounting learning style influence the students’
course outcome in UiTM. The sample consisted of 253 respondents who were taking
financial accounting and accounting generic codes during the semester July – November
2010 as the first semester for the implementation of Outcome-Based Education Student-
Centered learning (OBE-SCL) for all the accounting courses in UiTM Sabah. This study
found that, future time perspective had a greater impact to the learning style as
compared to motivation, furthermore future time perspective also had significant impact
on motivation. Thus, the findings provide a new other discipline such as psychology
that is future time perspective into education on which it can play as a motivator role as
well as providing more varieties of the prediction on accounting learning styles and in
turn improve the student’s course outcomes. |
