Outcomes-based Education
Carlo Magno, PhD.
Lasallian Institute for Development and Educational Research
Objectives Construct a one
session plan showing outcomes with appropriate assessment and delivery mode.
Case A Cherry is a staff in Mall X. Her work is to get
the products in the stock room as requested by the sales lady. Cherry has been working in Mall X for two months right after her graduation. Cherry finished a course in computer science and she is expected to develop softwares. One time the HR called her and asked her to make a program for the payroll system of the employees in the computer for an extra pay. She begged off honestly and said “Sorry I do not know how to make a program, perhaps you can ask other computer science graduates from other schools.”
Case B Cheryl conducted a graduate tracer study to
determine if the teacher education program of the school is adequate. She found in the survey that: 100% of the graduates were employed as
teachers in different sectors. 100% of the graduates were able to get a job in
two months. 100% of the graduates passed the licensure exam
for teacher. 60% of the faculty are receiving a salary of less
than Php15,000 80% of them working as a teacher were rated
satisfactory in their teaching performance by the school administrators.
Is the teacher education program adequate?
Outcomes-based Education Clearly focusing and organizing everything in
an educational system around what is essential for all students to be able to do successfully at the end of their learning experiences.
This means starting with a clear picture of what is important for students to be able to do, then organizing the curriculum, instruction and assessment to make sure this learning ultimately happens (Spady, 1994).
Outcomes-based Education In the process of designing programme
curriculum, the outcomes of the learning is emphasized and pre-determined
What is expected from the learning after the students have graduated in order to equip them with the necessary skills and capabilities before they enter the work place
Then go backward with: curriculum design programme outcomes and course outcomes, development of instructions delivery modes appropriate assessments methodologies
Outcomes-based Education looking at the level at which the inputs,
methods, and execution produce the desired learning competencies for the graduates of that program as determined by the Technical Committees/Technical Panels and as measured by appropriate assessments.
It points to the way in which the level of attainment of the outcomes can be progressively heightened.
Outcomes-based Education Assessing student growth and competency in
relation to these outcomes Detailing how outcomes based learning at a
whole program level functions within a complex university context
What needs to be set? Mission and Vision are translated into: indicators (e.g., professional qualification or
employability) metrics (e.g., percentage of passing in a
licensure exam or percentage of employment) targets (e.g., 70% passing or 85% employed).
Outcomes-based Education Outcomes – what learners are expected to know and
be able to do at the desired level of competence Outcomes-based evaluation – clearly focusing and
organizing everything in an educational system around what is essential for all students to be able to do successfully at the end of the learning experiences.
Outcomes-based teaching and learning – constructive alignment of intended, learning outcomes with appropriate outcomes-based assessment methods and teaching and learning activities. OBE applied in the classroom level.
Performance criteria – specific, measureable statements identifying the performance(s) required to meet the outcome; conformed through evidence.
Outcomes-based Education Ensure quality assurance (QA) 1) to translate vision, mission, and goals
(VMG) into desired learning outcomes 2) to establish the proper learning
environment (implementation of teaching-learning systems as well as support processes and procedures)
3) to review against performance indicators and standards defined in the assessment system
4) to enhance programs and systems
Approaches on OBE A direct assessment of educational outcomes,
with evaluation of the individual programs that lead to those outcomes. (To make sure that outcomes are delivered)
An audit of the quality systems of an institution, to determine whether these are sufficiently robust and effective to ensure that all programs are well designed and deliver appropriate outcomes. (To deliver effective programs)
What needs to be established? Mission and vision Program Educational Objectives Program Outcomes Matrix of courses with program outcomes
(Curriculum map) Outcome-based teaching and learning
delivery system Program assessment and evaluation process Continuing quality improvement program

At the end of the course students should be able to:• decide which
inferential statistics can be used for a specific hypothesis
• Encode data acceptable in SPSS
• use SPSS to compute for the inferential statistics
• Suggest which type of statistics to be used given a hypothesis
• Use SPSS to encode survey data
• Click appropriate menu in SPSS when computing for ANOVA, t-test etc.
• Test: Given a hypothesis, write the correct stats to be used
• Performance based: encode the data from a survey to the SPSS worksheet
• Checklist: step by step procedure in using SPSS
How do you teach in an OBE framework? Transformative learning Learner-centered Understanding by Design
Case presentation
A group of psychology students at the start of the term thinks that doing research is going to the library and compiling information about a topic from different books. The teacher knew about it by asking the students at the start of the class what research is. The teacher started to show examples of journal articles and how research is conducted. The different methodologies and the use of research was assigned. Then the students conducted their own research using a nonexperimental design. Towards the end of the term when the teacher asked again hat is research, students see it as a process of arriving at new knowledge and supporting the ideas through data (evidence).

What is transformative learning? TLT is a cognitive learning theory that results
in changes in meaning perspectives that have developed over an individual's lifetime based upon their life experiences (Mezirow, 2000).
Achieved through becoming critically reflective of assumptions underlying content, process, or premise through instrumental and communicative learning.
What is transformative learning? View learning as a process of critical reflection
and self-examination of one’s worldview in light of new knowledge and a fundamental reorganization of one’s perspective or frame of reference (Taylor, 1998).
Process where learners critically examine their beliefs, assumptions, and values in light of acquiring new knowledge and correspondingly shift their worldviews to incorporate new ideas, values and expectations (Cranton, 1994; Mezirow, 1994, 2000).
Phases of transformative learning theory
Facilitating TL 1) a disorienting dilemma 2) critical questioning and self-reflection 3) sharing of one’s transformation process
with others 4) exploration of new roles and actions 5) planning a course of action 6) provisional trying of new roles 7) building competence and self-confidence in
new roles and relationships 7) a reintegration into one’s life directed by
one’s new perspective (Mezirow, 2000)
Show objects and ask for examples how to teach it using the ways TL facilitation.
Pillars of TL Learning to know - the capability of making
connections, adapting to changes and knowing how to learn.
Learning to do - framed in the idea of learner-centered learning and leadership performance tasks that demonstrate the ability to apply knowledge in a creative way
Learning to live together – using the concept of collaboration on a local and global scale
Learning to be - the life-long journey of self-discovery as part of the process of learning (Monk, 2011).
Assessment What is the function of assessment? How do you help students learn better
through assessment?
Features of performance assessment Intended to assess what it is that students know
and can do with the emphasis on doing. Have a high degree of realism about them
(authentic). Involve: (a) activities for which there is no single
correct answer, (b) assessing groups rather than individuals, (c) testing that would continue over an extended period of time, (d) self-evaluation of performances.
Likely use open-ended tasks aimed at assessing higher level cognitive skills.
Performance assessment Bring testing
methods more in line with instruction.
Assessment should approximate closely what it is students should know and be able to do.
Emphasis of performance assessment Should assess higher
level cognitive skills rather than narrow and lower level discreet skills.
Direct measures of skills of interest.
Workshop Create a one session plan that will run for one session.
Indicate atleast one or two learning outcomesProvide the indicatorsHow will you assess the aim?List the procedure how you will teach, Learning
