The results revealed the followings:1. The students' overall perceived learning outcomes according to the TQF:HEd was in the High level (mean = 4.37, SD = 0.55). Likewise, their perceived learning outcomes for all learning aspects were also at the High level, with the aspect on inter-personal skills and responsibility gained the highest mean score (mean = 4.57, SD = 0.51), followed by moral and ethics (mean = 4.43,SD = 0.52), numerical analytic, communicative, and technological skills (mean =4.33, SD=0.60), knowledge (mean = 4.32,SD = 0.51), and intellectual skills (mean = 4.20, SD = 0.59). 2. Students expressed their satisfaction towards the integrated instruction in the High level both overall (mean = 4.18, SD = 0.77) and in all sub items - the highest mean score was for the teacher (mean = 4.33, SD = 0.80), followed by learning improvement (mean = 4.26, SD = 0.75), and course management (mean = 3.94, SD = 0.76).The students also suggested that this type of integrating instruction could make them improve their learning skills with authentic problems that they could summarize their knowledge and give practical feedbacks to the community.
