Implementation of Outcomes-Based Education in Pangasinan State University

Abstract

The transition of instruction to Outcomes-Based Education (OBE) in teaching and learning at the tertiary education level has become one of the most important issues in the country. The education system has struggled to achieve student learning through curriculum alignment and instruction. To address this issue, aligning with global education trends is the main thrust of the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) to move toward Outcome-Based Education (OBE). The main purpose of the study is to determine the implementation of Outcomes-Based Education in Pangasinan State University. This study made use of the descriptive method of research. To achieve the objective of the study, a survey questionnaire was utilized. Findings revealed that the obedized curriculum is implemented in Pangasinan State University in terms of practices, environment, academics, attitudes, and instruction. To improve further implementation, the administration should provide a faculty development program that involves training and workshops on Outcomes-Based education.
