• Factors affecting bioscience students’ academic achievement (2012, result): “According to previous studies, positive perceptions of the teaching‐ learning environment are related to a deep approach to learning and, respectively, negative perceptions to a surface approach to learning (Diseth 2007a; Parpala et al. 2010; Richardson 2005 ).”
• Students’ perceptions of teaching quality in higher education: the perspective of currently enrolled students (2007, background): “The CEQ has a substantial literature addressing its reliability and validity in a variety of settings (e.g. Ramsden, 1991; Trigwell & Prosser, 1991; Richardson, 1994, 2005a, b; Sadlo, 1997; Wilson et al., 1997; Richardson & Woodley, 2001; Lawless & Richardson, 2002; Lizzio et al., 2002; Byrne &…”
• Assessing students’ experiences of teaching–learning environments and approaches to learning: Validation of a questionnaire in different countries and varying contexts (2013, background): “Students’ positive perceptions of their learning environments have been found to be positively related to a deep approach to learning, but negatively related to a surface approach to learning (Kreber 2003; Lawless and Richardson 2002; Richardson 2005; Richardson and Price 2003; Sadlo and Richardson ”
• Learning in Communities of Inquiry: A Review of the Literature (2009, result): “Entwistle and Tait (1990) demonstrated this relationship again in a subsequent study, as have several other researchers (Richardson, 2005; Jackling, 2005; Reid, Duvall, & Evans, 2005).”
• Instruments for obtaining student feedback: a review of the literature (2005, background): “Indeed, in research with Open University students taking particular course units (Richardson, 2005; Richardson & Price, 2003), demographic characteristics such as gender and age did not show any significant relationship with students’ perceptions of the academic quality of their courses.”
• Students’ Approaches to Learning and Teachers’ Approaches to Teaching in Higher Education (2005, background): “It has also shown that there is an intimate relationship between students’ perceptions of the quality of their courses and the approaches to studying that they adopt on those courses (Richardson, 2005).”
