Outcome-Based Education: An Open Framework

Abstract

Outcome-based education (OBE) has been the effective framework of teaching, learning and evaluation for the UGC and NAAC for the past five years. Nevertheless, most universities in the country are yet to design their academic programmes and curricula. In this context, we have taken OBE as the central theme for the journal’s current issue. Four articles directly relate to OBE’s general and particular aspects. N. J. Rao’s article comprehensively deals with the theory and practice of OBE. Other articles by Manulal P. R. and Shefeeque V. draw on discipline-specific issues and effects of OBE.
