What is LEB2?
LEB2 is an online teaching and learning platform developed by the Education Technology Development and Integration Support (ETS) department of King Mongkut's University of Technology Thonburi (KMUTT). Its goal is to support the educational process for maximum effectiveness, following the principles of Outcome-Based Education (OBE), which focuses on learning outcomes, enabling students to genuinely develop skills and competencies.
Why is LEB2 important?
LEB2 is an important educational platform for online teaching and learning, designed based on the principles of Outcome-Based Education (OBE). This educational approach focuses on Learning Outcomes (LO), prioritizing the results of students' learning. It emphasizes "can do" and "competency", avoiding time-based examinations that assess abilities within a limited time frame. Instead, it supports measuring students' abilities through their behavior and ongoing interactions and experiences during the learning process.
Key Concepts of OBE
🚩 Focus on results of learning (Learning Outcome)
⭐ Program-level Learning Outcomes must be formulated first in curriculum design.
🚩 Backward curriculum design: design down (from the performances expected of graduates) and deliver up.
⭐ Learner are the center of OBE – create learning opportunities to help different learners achieve similar learning outcomes
