Abstract

One inherent challenge in the Outcome-Based Education (OBE) system is assessing the extent of achievement of Learning Outcomes due to the lack of a proper assessment model. The proposed assessment model employs a top-down approach, starting from Program Outcomes (PO) to Course Learning Outcomes (CLO), linked to Performance Indicators (PI). The OBE structure is hierarchical and nonlinear, allowing for feedback at any stage to the previous stage in the hierarchy. While assessment in the OBE setup is not inherently quantifiable, our model aims to provide a rough indication of performance. This proposed model is a closed-loop system where feedback in the form of measurable results is used to identify root causes and implement corrective measures in course delivery.
