5 Outcome Based Education (OBE) Ministry of Higher Education, Malaysian Qualification Agency (MQA) and related professional bodies require all programs that offered by Institution of Higher Learnings to adopt the Outcome Based Education approach in their teaching and learning activities. This is in line with the paradigm shift mooted by the Ministry of Higher Education to enhance the quality of education in Malaysia. Outcome-based education (OBE) is an educational approach that focuses on what students are able to do upon completion of a course. All curriculum and teaching decisions are made based on how best to facilitate the desired outcome. The term outcomes in this matter would be a set of values or wish list on what students should acquire upon their educational program completion. Outcome-based education is designed so that all students are equipped with the knowledge, skills and qualities needed to be successful after they exit the educational system (Spady, 1994, p. 9). In brief, OBE answers the following questions: What must the student learn? What do the teachers or lecturers want the student to learn? How does what student learn affect the overall educational outcome? How do the teachers or lecturers make sure that the students learn what they are intended to learn? Thus, OBE outlines the guidance for planning, delivering and evaluating teaching and learning activities to achieve the results expressed in terms of individual student learning outcomes as shown in Figure 5.1 below. TRADITIONAL SYSTEM Lecturer centered OBE Student centered Syllabus Learning Outcomes What to teach Non behavioral objectives Learning environment Includes behavioral objectives Content Assessment Outcomes achieved? Students passively learning (makes content visible) Students actively involved in learning (makes learning visible) Figure 5.1: A Paradigm Shift for Educational System

Outcome Based Education (OBE) 6 DELIVERY MODES The diversity of teaching and learning methodologies can be adapted by lecturers as to cater to the hetrogeneous or different students potentials. This is important to ensure that different students are at the maximum level while the less potential ones are not left behind. Figure 5.2 shows that there are many modes of delivery that can be employed to suit various teaching and learning purposes.

7 Outcome Based Education (OBE) OBE EDUCATIONAL FRAMEWORK Programme Educational Objectives (PEO): The broad statements that describe the career and professional accomplishments which the program is preparing graduates to achieve. Programme Learning Outcomes (PLO): The statements that describe what students are expected to know and able to perform or attain in terms of skills, knowledge and behaviour or attitude by the time of graduation. Course Learning Outcomes (CLO): The statements that describe the specification of what a student should learn upon completing a course.

Outcome Based Education (OBE) 8 FORMATION OF LEARNING OUTCOMES The achievement of our students is measured by learning outcomes. These learning outcomes should specify the competencies acquired by students upon completion of their studies. Donnelly, K (2007) mooted that outcomes cater to the understandings, dispositions and capabilities which are the personal and intellectual qualities to be possessed by each student. The outcomes are developed throughout the students learning span. These features are contained in the 8 domains of learning outcomes: Figure 5.4: Competency Domain to be applied in MQA Outcomes (Learning Outcomes, LO)

9 Outcome Based Education (OBE) THREE MAIN STAGES IN TEACHING AND LEARNING PROCESS In general, OBE concept divides teaching and learning activities into three parts, namely: i. Planning, ii. Implementation and iii. Assessment At the planning stage, learning outcomes should be determined in advance by taking into account what students can do after attending a teaching process. At the implementation stage, the teaching and learning activities should be designed to achieve the specified learning outcomes. Finally, the assessment is to be determined where it measures how far students have achieved the specified learning outcomes and assessment provides input to continuously improve the teaching and learning process. What TL activities do I adopt to achieve the intended LO? 2 Implementation Lectures Instructional technology 3 domains of educational goals (cognitive, psychomotor and affective) Labs The three main stages in T&L process Program Bloom s Outcomes Taxonomy Learning Outcomes Students Instructor s goals 1 Planning What do I want my students to be able to do as a result of my teaching? Classroom Assessment technique Instruction/ Approaches Active & Cooperative learning Other Problembased learning techniques Can my students do what I want them to be able to do? 3 Assessment Felder & Brent, JEE, Jan., 2003 Assessment Test Other measures Surveys Figure 5.5: Three Main Stages in Teaching and Learning Process Towards the future of OBE: 1. Courses will help students to want, passionately, to do things, rather than just be able to do things. 2. Assessment will assess whether students actually and spontaneously achieve the outcomes, rather than just being able to 3. Outcomes will include values and principles and purposes as well as abilities. In conclusion, the call for accountability is inevitably one of the reasons that lead to the introduction of OBE in Politeknik Muadzam Shah. All parties need to make necessary changes, modifications, and improvements in the light of the changes aimed. The roles of curriculum, lecturers or instructors and assessment must gear the students towards the intended outcomes.
