“…Success is the underlying motive of the strategic learning approach and the intent is to excel on performance and achieve the highest grades possible by outperforming others (Ballantine et al, 2018; Diseth, 2007b; Entwistle et al, 2000). The strategic approach may incorporate elements of surface or deep processing (Hasnor et al, 2013), depending on which has the greater likelihood of producing high grades (Ballantine et al, 2018; Newble & Entwistle, 1986). As such, the strategic approach can result in a deep level of understanding of the material, but such learning is viewed by the student as incidental rather than the primary goal (Gordon & Debus, 2002).…”

“…Other business education works of literature, including marketing, have few empirical studies that characterize factors associated with students’ learning approaches. Among the sparse findings, cheating behaviors were low for business ethics students adopting deep and strategic approaches, but high for the surface approach (Ballantine et al, 2018).

A substantial body of empirical research outside of the marketing education literature indicates that students adopt surface, deep, or strategic learning approaches based on their learning environment, among other factors. Using the Revised Approaches to Studying Inventory and the Course Experience Questionnaire, this exploratory research examines upper-level marketing majors’ learning approaches, their perceptions of the overall academic quality of their program of study, and the relationships between those two sets of indicators. Findings from 345 senior-level marketing students indicate the heaviest use of the strategic approach, followed by the deep approach, and then the surface approach. Results also suggest that strategic and deep learning approaches are associated with higher perceptions of the quality of the academic program. Surface learning is the least preferred approach and negatively associated with the perception of academic program quality and satisfaction with academic achievement. Recommendations are offered for reaching strategic learners.

“…It is closely associated with mental health concomitants such as low self-worth, as well as with poor academic performance and reduced moral concern about academic dishonesty (Hazzouri, Carvalho & Main, 2015). In turn, reduced moral concern amongst business students can lead to a lack of ethical awareness amongst future managers and business leaders (Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business, 2004;Ballantine, Guo & Larres, 2018).…”
