comprehensive approach to organizing and operating
an education system that is focused on and defined by
the successful demonstration of learning sought from
each student
 Spady emphasizes that:

 Outcomes as ….
 clear learning results
 and are actions or performance
that reflects learners’ competence
in using:
 Content, information, ideas and
tool successfully
 CHED defines OBE as:

“an approach that focuses and organizes the

educational system around what is essential for all
learners to:
 know
 value
 do
to achieve a desired level of competence at the time
of graduation”
 FOUR Basic Principles of OBE

 Why Shift to OBE ?

 OBE is distinguished from other reforms by its focus on

outcomes
 it addresses the pressing worldwide concerns
on accountability and effectively pairs legislative
control with institutional autonomy (Evans, 1991)
 OBE compels to lay down intended learning
outcomes of an institution and commit its educational
resources until the goals are achieved.
