A forty-five questionnaire items were developed based on the Analysis Model of SERVPERF which was completed by 130 international undergraduates using a five point Likert Scale. This paper will present, discuss and highlight the findings of this research project, as knowing these results is critical in deriving to the key components of the service quality, in order to creatively or innovatively redesign them to suit the needs of the learners. |
