Assessment of Learning Outcomes in OBE

 Assessment in OBE should be guided by the four principles

of OBE
 It should contribute to the objective of improving students'
learning. Since in OBE, there is a need first to establish a
clear vision of what the students are expected to learn
(desired learning outcome), then assessment becomes an
embedded part of the system.

Learner's Responsibility
for Learning
 In OBE, students are responsible for
their own learning and progress.
 Learning is a personal matter.
 Teachers can only facilitate that
learning, define the learning outcomes
to be achieved, and assist the students
to achieve those outcomes.
 Students have the bigger responsibility
to achieve those outcomes that they
will be able to know whether they are
learning or not.
