Abstract:
This article presents a practical Outcome-Based Education (OBE) strategy
that requires students to achieve a minimum 50% score on a formative quiz
before progressing to the next chapter. By setting a mastery threshold, the
approach ensures students have a solid understanding of foundational
concepts, promoting deep learning and reducing learning gaps. Aligned with
CLOs and Bloom’s Taxonomy, this strategy enhances constructive alignment
and supports early intervention. Successfully implemented in an engineering
course, it encourages student responsibility, self-reflection, and improved
performance. This chapter-by-chapter mastery model is adaptable across
disciplines and teaching modes, supporting OBE’s goal of meaningful and
measurable learning outcomes.
