OBEM stands for the Outcome-Based Module. It is a principle that emphasizes measuring students' outcomes more specifically. OBEM focuses on One Learning Outcome.
How is OBEM good for the student ?
- Learning method; the student will learn each module and be noticed the result of each of them before the semester ends (Pass/Not pass in each module).
- Continuous learning; if they don't pass the module, they can still learn continuously via LEB2 or other learning platforms that their teacher provides until they pass.
- One-time enrollment; the student will learn each module until they pass. If they don't pass, they can still continue learning and re-taking the examination.
The examination schedules and regulations are set up according to each department's policy.
- Grading by weighting; the result will be graded by weighting of the Learning Outcome from each completed module.
