OUTCOME BASED EDUCATION

2. What do Engineers do?
Engineers architect/plan, design, develop, manufacture, test, install,
operate, and maintain technological products and systems.
Engineers provide services using technological products.
Groups of engineers and non-engineers solve socially relevant
complex technical problems.
Engineers are required to operate and behave as per well-defined
professional and ethical standards.

3. Good Engineer
Characteristics of a good engineer considered important by the
industries:
• Have sound knowledge of engineering sciences and technologies.
• Ability to solve well defined and ill-defined problems.
• Have awareness of customers‟ needs and market trends.
• Have an interest and awareness in all facets of engineering activities.
• Ability to work in a team.
• Ability to document, plan and communicate effectively.
• Willingness and ability to learn on the job.

4. Engineering Education
Find answers to two far-reaching questions:
• What knowledge, skills, attitudes and values will today’s students
(you) need to shape and thrive your world in future?
• How can instructional systems develop these knowledge, skills,
attitudes and values effectively?

5. Knowledge and Skills
• Disciplinary knowledge will be important, as the raw material from
which new knowledge is developed, together with the capacity to think
across the boundaries of disciplines and “connect the dots”.
• Epistemic knowledge, or knowledge about the disciplines, such as
knowing how to think like a mathematician, historian or scientist, will
also be significant, enabling students to extend their disciplinary
knowledge.
• Procedural knowledge is acquired by understanding how something is
done or made – the series of steps or actions taken to accomplish a goal.

6. Knowledge and Skills
• Students need to apply their knowledge in unknown and evolving
circumstances.
• For this, you will need a broad range of skills, including,
• cognitive and meta-cognitive skills (e.g. critical thinking, creative
thinking, learning to learn and self-regulation);
• social and emotional skills (e.g. empathy, self-efficacy and
collaboration); and
• practical and physical skills (e.g. using new information and
communication technology devices).

7. Blooms’ Taxonomy
• Three Domains of Educational Activities:
• Cognitive Domain (Knowledge and Reasoning)
• knowledge, comprehension, and critical thinking
• Knowing
• Affective Domain (Values and Attitudes)
• The way people react emotionally
• Feeling
• Psychomotor Domain (Skills)
• Ability to physically manipulate a tool or instrument
• Doing

Dr. L.S.Dhamande
Blooms’ Taxonomy- Affective Domain
Receiving
(Ask, accept, hold)
A student saw a person helping poor
Responding
(Answer, assist,
discuss)
Student saw people appreciating the
person who helped poor
Valuing (Embrace,
follow, join, share,
value)
Student gives a value that helping poor
is an appreciable work
Organizing
(Alter, combine,
complete, integrate,
order, organize,
relate, synthesize)
He then organizes the learning for how
to help the poor
Charaterizing
(qualify, resolve,
solve, verify)
At this stage the habit becomes part of
his character

12. Attitudes and Values
• The use of this broader range of knowledge and skills will be mediated by
attitudes and values (e.g. motivation, trust, respect for diversity and
virtue).
• The attitudes and values can be observed at personal, local, societal and
global levels.
• The concept of competency implies more than just the acquisition of
knowledge and skills; it involves the mobilisation of knowledge, skills,
attitudes and values to meet complex demands

13. Developing Competency
• The ability to develop competencies is itself something to be learned using a
sequenced process of,
• reflection,
• anticipation and
• action.
• Reflective practice is the ability to take a critical stance when deciding, choosing and
acting, by stepping back from what is known or assumed and looking at a situation
from other, different perspectives.
• Anticipation mobilizes cognitive skills, such as analytical or critical thinking, to
foresee what may be needed in the future or how actions taken today might have
consequences for the future.
• Both reflection and anticipation are forerunners to responsible actions.

14. Outcome Based Education
• Outcome: Competency, Standard, Benchmark, Attainment target
• Outcome Based Education is an approach to education in which
decisions about the curriculum, instruction and assessment are
driven by the exit learning outcomes that the students should
demonstrate at the end of a program or a course.
• In outcome-based education, “product defines process”.
• It is the opposite of input-based education where the emphasis
is on the teaching and the system is happy to accept whatever is
the result.

15. Advantages of OBE (Outcome Based Education)
• Clarity: An explicit statement, of what the educational process aims to
achieve, clarifies the curriculum for both students and teachers, and
provides a focus for teaching and learning.
• Provision of a Framework: Outcome-based education provides a robust
framework for integration of the curriculum.
• Involvement
• Guide for Assessment: The outcomes provide the framework for student
examinations.
• Facilitates Curriculum Evaluation: The outcomes provide benchmarks
against which the curriculum can be judged.

16. Outcome Based Education
• As per OBE „Students Learn Well‟ when
• They are clear about what they should be able to do at the end of a course
• Assessment is in alignment with what they are expected to do
• Instructional activities are designed and conducted to facilitate them to
acquire what they are expected to achieve
• Levels of Outcomes
• Program Educational Objectives
• Program Outcomes and Program Specific Outcomes
• Course Outcomes

17. NBA
• Engineering Programs in India
• Are offered as per the regulations of All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE)
• Are offered by Tier 1 (Academically Autonomous) and Tier 2 (Academically Non-
autonomous) Institutions.
• NBA Established in the year 1994 under Section 10 (u) of AICTE Act.
• The NBA became Autonomous in January 2010.
• The Memorandum of Association and Rules of the NBA were amended in April 2013 to
make it administratively as well as financially independent of AICTE.
• India became a permanent member of the Washington Accord in 2014.
• The NBA, since 2015, requires that engineering programs are conducted in the
framework of Outcome Based Education.

18. NBA
Washington Accord
• It recognizes the substantial equivalence of programs accredited by signatory countries.
• It recommends that graduates of programs accredited by any of the signatory bodies be
recognized by the other bodies as having met the academic requirements for entry to the
practice of engineering Accreditation
• Accreditation is a process of quality assurance and improvement, whereby a program in an
approved Institution is critically appraised to verify that the Institution or the program
continues to meet and/or exceed the Norms and Standards prescribed by the regulator from
time to time.
• It is a kind of recognition which indicates that a program or Institution fulfills certain
standards.

19. NBA
• The National Board of Accreditation (NBA)
• It requires, since 2015, all engineering programs attain the Program
Outcomes, and demonstrate continuous improvement in their performance.
• Most Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in engineering want their programs
to be accredited by the NBA.
• National Education Policy (NEP) 2019 requires that programs and institutions
should be accredited by 2022.
• All teaching and learning activities in HEIs should be planned and conducted
to facilitate the students to attain well defined and measurable Outcomes
(OBE).
• Accreditation and Outcome Based Education (OBE) became the foci of higher
education in India since 2015.

25. Assessment
• Assessment is an integral part of teaching and learning, helping to provide a picture of a learner‟s
progress and achievements and to identify next steps in learning
• Direct methods display the student’s knowledge and skills from their performance in the
continuous assessment tests, end-semester examinations, presentations, and classroom
assignments etc.
• Direct Assessment Method: using measurable performance indicators of students
• CATs, Exams, Assignments, Projects, Tutorials, Labs, Presentations
• Indirect methods such as surveys and interviews ask the stakeholders to reflect on student‟s learning.
• Indirect Assessment Method: Ascertaining opinion or self reports
• Rubrics, Alumni survey, Employer survey, Course-end survey, etc.,.
