Can We Achieve Outcome-Based Education?
King, Jean A.; Evans, Karen M.
Educational Leadership, v49 n2 p73-75 Oct 1991
Outcome-based education is rooted in earlier ideas, such as Tyler's objectives, Spady's outcomes, Glaser's criterion-referenced measurement, Bloom's mastery learning, 1970s accountability concerns, and the 1960s competency-based education movement. Minnesota's experience suggests various practical implementation challenges concerned with curriculum development, instructional implications, appropriate measurement, and staff development.
