Outcome-based education (OBE) is a student-centered philosophy that focuses on empirically measuring student performance and outcomes. It is a method that focuses on what students can do after being taught. OBE matches curriculum and teaching methods to desired outcomes, focusing on learner competencies and assessing learning related to all domains. Both teachers and students have defined roles in OBE, with students expected to take on more challenging tasks like analysis, synthesis and teamwork. While OBE aims to ensure quality education, some critics argue it does not allow for flexibility for students from underserved backgrounds or increased teacher workload.

20. Abstract
Outcome-based education is one of the most
significant global developments in medical
education in recent years.This paper presents
four case studies of outcome-based education
from medical schools in different parts of the
world; Scotland; USA; Pakistan; and Singapore.
The outcome-based curricula have either been in
place for some time, are evolving or are at the
planning proposal stage.
21. The outcomes, change process and
implementation of the outcome-based approach
are described.Variation in the extent to which
each medical school has implemented outcome-
based education is discussed and key points for
successful implementation are highlighted.This
paper is based on the pre-conference
symposium "outcome-based curricula: global
perspectives" presented by the authors at the
4th Asia Pacific Medical Education Conference
(APMEC) in Singapore, 8-11 February, 2007.
