5 - OUTCOMES-BASED EDUCATION Flashcards
Begins with the (1) development of learning outcomes (what the students should know) and then with the (2) choosing of content and appropriate teaching strategies to help the students to achieve them
OBE Process
first step of the OBE process
development of learning outcomes
second step of the OBE process
choosing of content and appropriate teaching strategies to help the students to achieve them
- Expectation of what the learner is supposed to be able to do, think about, and/or evaluate at the end if the study unit
- How well such results should be considered to be achieved
- Substance of learning and how to demonstrate
Learning Outcomes
The primary purpose(s) of your efforts
Mission
- The big picture aims of your efforts
- Your intentions for students after the learning experience
- Broad observable result
Goals
- What educators will do to pursue the goals

Outcomes
Value of Effective Learning Outcomes Statements
Informs about:

For students
- Identify the range and type of knowledge, skills, and values required
- Clear and understandable
- Links to the course graduate attributes
- Achievable and assessable
- Related statements to the level of understanding required
Characteristics of Outcomes
Writing Intended Learning Outcomes
Two essential elements of Intended Learning Outcomes (ILO)

OBE Framework
- Design methods that are aligned with the overall aim of the program
- Consider any requirements set by professional bodies
- Ensure that assessment tasks are aligned with the stated learning outcomes
- Use assessment methods that best measure achievement of the stated learning outcomes
- Be fair in the amount of tasks assigned and how much value is assigned to each task

- Provide allowance for student choice in determining assessment tasks at certain times
Seven Rules when Choosing a Teaching Method
OBE Pyramid
- Paradigm
- Purposes
- Premises
- Principles
- Practices
OBE Pyramid
what and whether students learn successfully is more important than when and how they learn something
1 Paradigm
OBE Pyramid
- Equip the students with the knowledge, competence, and qualities to be successful after they exit the education system
- Structure and operate schools so that the desired outcomes are achieved/maximized for all students
2 Purposes
OBE Pyramid
- all students can learn but not in the same time/way
- successful learning breeds more successful learning
- schools control the conditions that directs learning
3 Premises
OBE Pyramid
- clarity of focus on exit outcomes of significance
- expanded opportunity/support for learning success
- high expectations for all to succeed
- design down from culminating outcomes
4 Premises
OBE Pyramid
- define outcomes
- design curriculum
- deliver instruction
- document results
- determine advancement
