Impact of Outcomes Based Education on Faculty Teaching Index

Abstract

Outcomes based education (OBE) is student centred education. In OBE at the beginning it is decided what is good or important for the students and then all the resources viz. Curriculum, faculty, library, laboratory, teaching and assessment methods etc. are arranged to achieve that. It is expected that implementation of OBE should improve performance of faculty or the learning satisfaction index of the students. In Rajarambapu Institute of Technology (RIT) OBE is implemented since academic year 2012-13. Students' feedback on the performance of the faculty is collected for all the courses in the semester. It is observed that through these feedback that there is improvement in overall performance of the faculty since implementation of OBE.
