    Study Notes

    Outcomes-Based Education (OBE)

    • OBE shifted education from a "pouring in" process (teacher-centered) to a "drawing out" process (student-centered).
    • Technology's impact allowed students to access information independently, making teachers facilitators of knowledge.
    • OBE has three characteristics: student-centered, faculty-driven, and meaningful.

    Key Components of OBE

    • Educational Objectives: Broad goals of a course, defined by the teacher.
    • Learning Outcomes: Specific, measurable actions students should be able to perform after a course.
    • Bloom's Taxonomy: A framework for defining educational objectives in three domains: cognitive (knowledge), psychomotor (skills), and affective (attitudes).

    Outcomes in OBE

    • Immediate Outcomes: Skills and competencies acquired immediately after completing a course, program, or grade level.
    • Deferred Outcomes: The ability to apply skills and knowledge in various situations years after completing studies.

    Outcome Levels

    • Institutional Outcomes: Attributes expected of graduates 3 or more years after graduation.
    • Program Outcomes: What graduates of a particular program or degree should be able to do upon completion.
    • Course Outcomes: What students should be able to demonstrate at the end of a course or subject.
    • Learning Outcomes: What students should be able to do after a lesson or instruction.
