What is Outcome Based Education?

By the end of the educational experience, each student should have achieved the goal. To achieve the above, OBE follows these three approaches mainly.

• Theory of Education
• Systematic structure of Education
• Specific approach to instructional practices

​

Around 20 countries have adopted to this system with prime aim to train students with

• Life skills
• Basic skills
• Professional and Vocational sills
• Intellectual skills
• Interpersonal and personal skills.

​

OBE is successful due to

• Clarity – Focus on the outcome of student
• Flexibility – Instructors can structure their lessons
• Comparison – Between institutions
• Involvement – by students and they are aware of their expectations

​

Drawbacks of OBE

• No clear understanding of outcome – By outlining specific outcomes, a holistic approach of learning is lost
• Assessment Problems – No time bound assessments and difficult to be objective
• Generality – no measurable, observable outcomes
• Involvement – if there is no involvement by parents, students and society no improvement
