  11. CURRICULUM DESIGN Wan Hamidon, March 2006

  12. Starting from scratch? or Our Approach Modify existing curricular? Revise Course Content & Structure Introduce Innovative Delivery Methods Introduce Innovative Assessment & Evaluation Tools Introduce System of Data & Evidence Collection

  13. What will be involved in the process towards OBE? • Course Content - Reviewing course content to suit specified Learning Outcomes, current development, industrial needs, job specifications, professional body requirement (accreditation), own niche, etc. • Teaching-Learning Methods - Introducing innovative/flexible teaching methods/delivery tools to develop PEO and PO in students/graduates • Assessment & Evaluation Tools - Introducing variety of assessment and evaluation tools to measure the achievement of PEO and PO. • Data & Evidence Collection - Collecting evidences of process involved and the achievement of the PEO and PO. Wan Hamidon, March 2006

  16. Practical Steps Towards Implementing OBE in Curriculum Formulate Programme Objectives (PEO) Formulate Programme Outcomes (PO) Prepare a matrix of PO against PEO (PO-PEO Matrix) Wan Hamidon, March 2006

  17. UKM Engineering Programme Objectives (PEO) To produce graduates who: • are competent with strong understanding of fundamental engineering knowledge. • have professional attitudes and ethics necessary in fulfilling his/her responsibilities towards the Creator, client and the society. • will uphold the Malay Language as a language of knowledge in the engineering field and at the same time has the ability to communicate in English. • is able to adapt him/herself to the international/global work environment. • is able to lead an organisation based on experience and knowledge of important current issues in engineering. • is able to conduct research in his/her own organisation. Faculty of Engineering UKM Wan Hamidon, March 2006

  18. UKM Engineering Programme Outcomes (PO) • Students of UKM engineering programme are expected to have the following outcomes by the time of graduation: • ability to acquire and apply knowledge of science and engineering fundamentals • acquiring in-depth technical competence in a specific engineering discipline • ability to undertake problem identification, formulation and solution • ability to utilise systems approach to design and evaluate operational performance • understanding of the principles of sustainable design and development Wan Hamidon, March 2006

  19. UKM Engineering Programme Outcomes (PO) • understanding of professional and ethical responsibilities and commitment to them • ability to communicate effectively, not only with engineers but also with the community at large • ability to function effectively as an individual and in a group with the capacity to be a leader or manager as well as an effective team member • understanding of the social, cultural, global and environmental responsibilities of a professional engineer, and the need for sustainable development • recognising the need to undertake life-long learning, and possessing/acquiring the capacity to do so. Wan Hamidon, March 2006

  21. Steps towards implementing OBE in curriculum design Formulate PEO Formulate PO Identify Programme Core A set of courses in the programme curriculum designated to address the PO. Preferably, courses that all students will take. Elective courses may or may not be chosen. Wan Hamidon, March 2006

  22. Practical Steps Towards Implementing OBE in Curriculum Decide on the Course Structure & Content Identify Programme Core that will contribute to the achievement of the specified programme outcomes A set of courses in the programme curriculum designated to address the PO. Preferably, courses that all students will take. Elective courses may or may not be chosen. Wan Hamidon, March 2006

  23. Programme Objectives (PEO) Programme Outcomes (PO) Course Outcomes of Course 1 Course Outcomes of Course 2 Course Outcomes of Course 3 Course Outcomes of Course etc. Wan Hamidon, March 2006

  24. Steps Towards Implementing OBE in Curriculum Design Define for each core course a set of one or more CO Prepare a matrix of CO against PO (CO-PO Matrix) indicate the level of emphasis on PO by each CO entries 1, 2, and 3 to be inserted in the matrix toindicate the following: 1 = Related to PO without formal assessment 2 = Partial fulfillment of PO with formal assessment 3 = Total fulfillment of PO with formal assessment Should be based on a review of course materials conducted by a committee Wan Hamidon, March 2006

  25. COURSE OUTCOMES (CO): CO are statements of student actions or what the student is able to do as the course progresses that serve as evidence of the achievement of PO. These statements are more course specific and relate to the course content. CO should be linked to PO Wan Hamidon, March 2006

  26. Example of a CO-PO Matrix KFZZYY Course Outcomes (CO) P O 1 PO2 PO3 PO4 PO5 PO6 PO7 PO8 PO9 PO10 PO11 Delivery Methods Assessment Methods Ability to solve engineering problems related to building acoustic and environmental noise pollution 1 2 3 2 3 Lecture and group activities Tutorial classes & Quizzes Lecture and group activities Ability to solve problems through computation on dynamic/vibration characteristicof strings 3 Tutorial classes & Laboratory Reports 3 2 3 2 1 = Related to PO without formal assessment, 2 = Partial fulfillment of PO with formal assessment, 3 = Total fulfillment of PO with formal assessment

  27. Steps Towards Implementing OBE in Curriculum Design Prepare a overall matrix of courses against PO (Course-PO Matrix) indicate the level of emphasis on PO by each course Average out the entries in the CO-PO matrix and insert in the Course-PO matrix Make sure PO are covered and distributed throughout the programmed Wan Hamidon, March 2006

  28. Example of Course – PO Matrix 1 = Related to PO without formal assessment, 2 = Partial fulfillment of PO with formal assessment, 3 = Total fulfillment of PO with formal assessment

  29. Steps Towards Implementing OBE in Curriculum Design Identify delivery/teaching method to ensure the student’s attainment of the PO – PBL, co-operative learning, capstone project, etc. Wan Hamidon, March 2006

  30. Sample Delivery Structure Wan Hamidon, March 2006

  31. EXPECTED OUTPUT VS DELIVERY METHOD Output: Cognitive ability 30% 30% 40% Output: Psycomotoric ability 50% 50% 60% 70% 70% 80% 90% 70% Cognitive methodology 70% 60% 50% 50% Psychomotoric methodology: 40% 30% 30% 20% 10% CERT DIPLOMA DEGREE MASTER Ph.D Wan Hamidon, March 2006

  32. Students Workload The content as well as the delivery method contribute to students workload. Remember, students available time in a week is 54 hours! Wan Hamidon, March 2006

  33. Maximum Number of Subject per Semester Also, remember 1 credit = 40 hours student learning time per semester of 14 weeks Therefore, 1 credit = 40/14 = 2.86 or about 3 hours per week This means, humanly possible credit per week = 54/3 = 18 credit How many subjects of 3 credits each? 18/3 = 6 subjects Wan Hamidon, March 2006

  34. Steps Towards Implementing OBE in Curriculum Design Identify instruments and methods to be used in assessing the student’s attainment of the PO (known as Outcome Indicators by Felder) Identify instruments and methods to be used in assessing the graduates attainment of the PEO Wan Hamidon, March 2006

  35. Steps Towards Implementing OBE in Curriculum Design Identify the performance targets, i.e. the target criteria for the Outcome Indicators eg. the (average score, score earned by at least 80% of) the programme graduates on the (capstone design report, portfolio evaluation) must be at least 75/100. eg. the (median rating for, rating earned by at least 80% of) the programme graduates on the (self-rating sheet, peer rating sheet, senior survey, alumni survey, employer survey, final oral presentation) must be at least (75/100, 4.0 on a Likert scale, “Very good”) Wan Hamidon, March 2006

  36. Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) October To ensure CQI of programme (which is mandatory in OBE), if the performance target is not met, track which component/s in the course (content, delivery, assessment methods, etc.), and try to improve or change where necessary. Wan Hamidon, March 2006

  37. Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) What steps might be taken at the programme course levels to raise the level of achievement of the outcomes (PO)? Wan Hamidon, March 2006

  38. Example of Illustrative Course Outcomes • Example PO: An ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyse and interpret data in relation to research works • Example of Related CO: • The student will be able to: • design an experiment to (insert one or more goals or functions) and report the results (insert specifications regarding the required scope and structure of the report). • conduct (or simulate) an experiment to (insert specifications about the goals of the experiment) and report the results (insert specifications regarding the scope and structure of the report). Wan Hamidon, March 2006

  39. Example of Illustrative Course Outcomes • Example PO: an understanding of professional and ethical responsibility • Example of Related CO: • Given a job-related scenario that requires a decision with ethical implications, the student will be able to: • identify possible courses of action and discuss the pros and cons of each other • decide on the best course of action and justify the decision Wan Hamidon, March 2006

  40. Example of Illustrative Course Outcomes • Example PO: an ability to function on multi-disciplinary teams • Example of Related CO: • The student will be able to: • identify the stages of team development and give examples of team behaviours that are characteristic of each stage • summarise effective strategies for dealing with a variety of interpersonal and communication problems that commonly arise in teamwork, choose the best of several given strategies for a specified problem, and justify the choice • etc. Wan Hamidon, Dec 2005 Wan Hamidon, March 2006
