REFLECTION PAPER
PRINCIPLES OF TEACHING 2


Chapter 1
Outcomes – Based Education                           
           



CHAPTER SUMMARY

            OBE or Outcomes – based Education is concerned with planning instruction that is      focused on outcomes, choosing the methodology that leads to the intended outcomes and assessment process that determines the attainment of intended outcomes.
Learning Principles of OBE According to Spady:
1.    Clarity of Focus
§  Teachers should focus on helping students to  develop the knowledge and skills that will enable them to achieve the articulated intended outcomes
2.    Designing Down
§  Teachers design instruction (once the intended outcome is clear).
3.    High Expectations
§  Teachers should establish high, challenging standards of performance in order to encourage students to engage deeply in what they are learning.
4.    Expanded Opportunities
§  Teachers must strive to provide expanded    opportunities for all students.

The Different Level of outcomes:
·         IILOs – Institutional Intended Learning Outcomes
·         PILOs- Program Intended Learning
·         CILOs –Course Intended Learning Outcomes                          
·         ILOs- the more specific learning outcomes

The two types of OBE are; Translational OBE emphasizes student mastery of traditional subject-related academic outcomes (usually with a strong focus on subject-specific content) and some cross-discipline outcomes (such as the ability to solve problems or to work cooperatively). The Transformational OBE emphasizes long-term, cross-curricular outcomes that are related directly to students’ future life roles (such as being productive worker or a responsible citizen or a parent).





REFLECTION

            All throughout the discussion of the Chapter One, I have learned the definition of what is OBE. Together with its meaning, I come up with the understanding that it was a curriculum that mainly focuses on the outcomes and is very much relevant to the curriculum anchored to the newly implemented K to 12 Program. Moreover, I also acquired the knowledge about the four underlying principles of OBE, where, these four factors contribute to the wholeness of the effectivity and efficiency of the curriculum. In addition to what I have learned, along the discussion, I was able to be acquainted with the levels of outcomes where, OBE should penetrate in all of the levels to be able to have an efficacy on great learning.
             
 Being called as “teacher in the making” or as a student- teacher, I, myself will utilize my learning about OBE by simply, applying its focal point which is achieving intended learning outcomes during my discussion. By this, I will be able to practice the principle of OBE in some fundamental practices or activities inside the learning the environment. I will also help myself in making my discussions emphasizing the importance of achieving the objectives or outcomes because in what I have learned, outcomes will help me to determine if the learning is successful and effective. Furthermore, foreseeing that soon I will be a professional teacher, I will exploit my understanding about this chapter by means of anchoring my teaching to the present curriculum for the reason that as what I have learned, following the curriculum meaning you follow the trends towards the success of teaching. Meaning to say, with the guidance of the curriculum it would help me to achieve the same outcomes intended by the curriculum as of with my good intention to my students’ academic success. Thus, I am able to employ the principle of Outcomes- Based Education in the field of professional teaching and be able to produce globally competent, highly skilled and well educated students.
