Student Academic Load (Learning)/Student
Learning Time (SLT)
Zainai (2006) study showed that student learning time per week is
limited between 40-55 hours. SLT is inclusive of guided learning
(including lecture), independent learning and assessment
Source: Zainai as quoted by Prof Shahrin (APP Workshop 27-29 April 2007)
Final year project (Hons) – MQF should require 240-400 hours of student
work (6-10 credits) with 1-2 hours / week contact time with supervisor,

Procedure to determine student learning
time / academic load & credit
1a. To refer to the MQF 8 domains of generic learning
outcomes
Example
• Major courses (basic, core, electives)
• Specialization / minor courses (basic, core)
• Free electives (if applicable)
• Generic courses such as communication, management,
entrepreneurial, liberal arts and humanities (compulsory and
electives)
1. Lecture
3. Laboratory
Note:
The student academic load for a semester of 14 weeks is 601 / 14 = 43
hours.
F2F = Face-to-face learning such as attending lecture, laboratory,
tutorial and any other activities with formal contact.
SL = self-learning, ASG = assignment, T&E = testing and evaluation
