| EVALUATING OBE STUDENTS LEARNING CAPACITY IN HIGHER EDUCATION: TOWARDS COMPREHENSIVE FRAMEWORK | Outcome-Based Education (OBE) is adopted in higher education to make sure that students acquire knowledge and skills that are useful for their future profession. Several strategies based on theoretical frameworks have been developed to improve education in higher education over the past two decades. Outcome-Based Education (OBE) aims to establish specific learning objectives that students are expected to achieve by the end of their educational journey and is also helpful for professional careers. Therefore, OBE approach develops the practical experience of students by integrating educational knowledge with practical skills. There is a lack of studies on the investigation of students' learning capacity and practical skills of OBE graduates in a real environment. To fill the research gap, this study aims to measure attainment of students' learning capacity and practical skills in OBE. Survey research is used to achieve research objectives. The survey respondents are employers of OBE graduates. A total of 140 employers participated in the survey. The result analysis of survey demonstrate that OBE graduates possess practical skills and learning capacity that enables them to effectively perform in real work environment. The research provides a systematic approach to assessing educational outcomes and guides the practitioners towards effectiveness of OBE. In the future, researchers can specifically measure student’s performance in OBE and assess other factors like organization objectives, teaching strategies, and assessment methods in OBE. |
