In the broader spectrum, a learning environment may be teacher-centered or student-centered. The teacher-centered learning environment lacks active participation of students in the teaching learning process, and lecturing is a predominant mode of instruction. Here, there is considerably less interaction among students as well as between teacher and students. In this approach, a teacher acts as a transmitter of knowledge rather than a facilitator of learning. Student-centered learning environment, on the other hand, is characterized by active participation of students in the teaching learning process. This paper is an attempt to examine the relationship between students’ perceptions of learning environment, their approaches to learning and the quality of learning outcomes. The paper is mainly based on secondary sources of information and the review of the literature shows the intimate relationship between perceptions and approaches. The findings of this research show that quality of the students’learning is determined by their approaches to learning; the deep approach leads to better quality learning, and the surface approach to poor quality learning outcomes  \nKeywords: Students’ Perceptions of Learning Environment, Higher Education, Approaches to learning, Quality of learning.  \n* PhD, University Law College, Punjab University Lahore  \n** PhD ISCS, Punjab University Lahore  \nBackground and the Focus of the Study  \nWhat is a learn environment and what are its main components? In fact, learning environment is a very broad field which consists ofa number of components, e.g., curriculum, teaching, assessment, student-student and student-faculty relationships. The learning environments may be meaning oriented which emphasizeson ‘understanding’, or reproduction oriented which focuses on reproduction. Needless to say that different aspects of the same learning environment may have different impact on students’ approaches to learning. For instance, teaching practices may encourage conceptual understanding while assessment may reward rote memorization. Teachers and students may perceive the same learning environment differently. Further to say that educators might have designed a learning environment to promote desirable approaches to learning but the students might have different perceptions ofit. In this perspective, the main objectives ofthis study are:  \n(i) To examine the relationship between students’ approaches to learning and quality of the learning outcomes.  \n(ii) To examine the relationship between the students’ perceptions of different dimensions of the learning environment and their approaches to learning.  \nResearch on student learning has identified different approaches to learning. Marton and Sӓljö (1976) identified surface and deep approaches to studying among the university students. They called them surface-level and deep-level processing, respectively. The deep-level processing was characterized by an intention to understand the subject matter, and the surface-level processing, on the other hand, is characterized by an intention to memorize the text. Those who use the deep approach, try to integrate new knowledge with their previous knowledge and experience. They also reflect on what they read and try to apply the new knowledge to the real life issues. Whereas, those who use surface approach, try to memorize the text for the examination without efforts to understand it. Ramsden (1979) identified a strategic approach which is characterized by an intention to obtain the highest marks. Richardson (1994) found that the students of higher education used different approaches in different cultures but the deep and the surface approaches seemed to be found in all systems of hig","cbCaijrD4P5Rgf7O","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaijrD4P5Rgf7O","pdf",202161,22,"English","# Abstract\n# Background and the Focus of the Study\n## Study objectives\n# How this Study is Conducted?\n# Approaches to Learning and the Quality of Learning","[{\"question\":\"What learning-environment components and orientations does the study discuss?\",\"answer\":\"The study describes learning environment as a broad field including curriculum, teaching, assessment, and relationships between students and faculty.
