Why is OBE challenging?

Outcome-based education (OBE) is challenging because it requires fundamental changes in the way education is delivered, assessed and evaluated. OBE focuses on measurable learning outcomes and the development of necessary skills to meet these outcomes. Educators find OBE challenging because it requires a shift from traditional content-focused education to student-centered teaching. It requires them to identify specific learning outcomes and develop appropriate assessments to measure them accurately. Additionally, it involves a significant amount of planning and collaboration among educators to ensure that they are aligned with institutional goals and objectives. The implementation of OBE requires effort and time, but the results have shown to be worth the effort, enhancing student learning and engagement, and is utilized in many educational settings.
