In one form or another, and sometimes against their political wills, educators the world over are increasingly focusing their efforts on what are variously being called outcomes, results, performances, competencies, or standards. Whether proposed by national governments, as in Scotland, South Africa, or the United Kingdom; by state or provincial policy bodies, as in Australia, Canada, and the United States; or by local jurisdictions and institutions, as is happening on virtually every continent, how these changes are being applied to traditional forms of education vary as much as the terms themselves.

If you wish to know more about OBE the above link is useful. It contains a collection of articles, from different sources including both Education Encyclopedia and Wikipedia. They explain the development of OBE, defining Outcome Based Education, why OBE is so important to many, the criticisms of OBE, the future of OBE. There are links to sites which are pro-OBE and anti-OBE so you can hear both sides of the debate, and much more..
