General Facts

3. OBE is Learner-Centered
But
It is not reporting in class
It is not doing role playing or drama in a programming class
It does not mean lecture is a no…no inside the class
It is teaching the students in the way they easily learn
OBE is Learner-Centered

4. What is OBE? Outcomes-based Education (OBE)
Clearly focusing and organizing EVERYTHING in an educational system on what is essential for all students to be able to do successfully at the end of their learning experiences

What is OBE?

5. In the Philippines, we focused on OBE because of the following reasons:
International Professional Registries require completion of a program that is accredited by an outcomes- based promoting system; (International Trends);
Education agreements (Accord) around the world promotes OBE; (Globalization of Education);
Local Accreditation is moving towards OBE;
Philippines, through the Philippine Technological Council (PTC) will be applying for Washington Accord;
Other schools have taken their initiatives for membership like Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) accreditation; and
Global mobility for Professional Practice.
Commission on Higher Education (CHED) will require establishment of an OBE System;

What is…

7. “Student can run 50 meters in less than one minute" instead of "Student enjoys physical education class."
A complete system of outcomes for a subject area normally includes everything from mere recitation of fact
“Students will name three tragedies written by Shakespeare“
to complex analysis and interpretation ("Student will analyse the social context of a Shakespearean tragedy in an essay").
Writing appropriate and measurable outcomes can be very difficult, and the choice of specific outcomes is often a source of local controversies.
