This presentation answers the most pressing concern for today's Colleges and Universities. If colleges do go for an OBE Software, what features should such a solution have.

1. Do Colleges Need An
Outcome-Based Education
Software?
By
Abhishek Das

2. What is Outcome-Based Education?
Outcome-Based Education is an educational theory that focuses on
Outcomes rather than inputs. All major colleges and Accreditation Agencies
are now moving towards Outcome-Based Education in their methodology to
improve upon an age-old education system.

3. Outcome-Based Education Software
Outcome-Based Education software is a solution that is able to implement
the OBE methodology for an Institute/College/University.
Unlike other College Management or Higher Education softwares which
merely do the job, an OBE software plays a major part in improving the
employability of the students of the said Higher Education Institution. One of
the key advantages of an OBE software is that it reduces the workload of
faculties and staff significantly so that they can focus on improving learning.

4. Why an Outcome-Based Education Software ?
● Reduces Workload of faculties and staff
● Improves learning
● Helps in generating reports for Accreditation purposes
● All mapping can be done online and be stored for later use
● Reduces error to almost zero
● Helps students to analyze their weaker areas and improve on them
● Helps faculties in identifying high-risk students and help them improve

5. A good Outcome-Based Education Software should have the following
features -
1. Multi Levels of Mapping
2. Assessments & Assignments
3. Outcomes Attainment
4. Accreditation Support
The college solution should be built around Outcome-Based Education in
order to avoid all unnecessary hassles. Every activity should involve an
outcome, right from coming to class to exam management only then would
the college be able to incorporate OBE properly.
Features of a good Outcome Based Education
Software

6. A college OBE solution should help staff and management to move away
from error-prone and tedious manual mapping process. The software
should be designed in a way that faculties and staff can now focus on
much fruitful activities without having to maintain any physical copies of
their mapping activities for the purposes of accreditation. The software
solution should also offer the unique opportunity to map multiple levels of
outcomes with 3 different domains of Bloom’s Taxonomy which are
cognitive, affective and psychomotor.

7. The 5 levels of mapping required in any OBE
Software are -
I. Program Outcomes to Course
II. Course Outcomes to Program Outcomes
III. Assessment to Course Outcomes
IV. Syllabus to Course Outcomes
V. Questions to Course Outcomes

8. Faculty and admins should be able to
customize assessment rules, manage
the assessments and assignments
processes online all the way from
initiation to completion.

10. Faculties should be able to calculate attainment of outcomes by simply
giving threshold values and by mapping questions with the system. All the
hard work should be done by the system and should give faculties to
improve the learning by focusing on high-risk students and by comparing
the attainments with other programs.

11. The solution should be able to do the
following under Outcomes Attainment -
❖ Provide Absolute Grading support
❖ Provide Relative Grading support
❖ Also provide Curve Grading Support
❖ It Auto checks threshold values
❖ Automatic report generation for
Accreditation needs

12. The OBE Software Solution should be
Higher Education Accreditation compliant.
In fact the solution should be built around
OBE, Competency Based Education and
Bloom’s Taxonomy. It would thus
automatically qualify for agencies and
Universities under Washington Accords,
LIMA etc.

13. The software solution should provide Accreditation support for major
Accords and Agencies -
1. Faculties or Heads should be able to map PEO’s with PO’s
2. Pre-fed process for ABET, NBA, NAAC etc.
3. Provides Continuous Quality Improvement tools
4. Create online applications and surveys
5. Send auto alerts and notifications to staff and students
