The document outlines the key principles of outcome-based education. It emphasizes that the focus should be on student learning and mastery of outcomes rather than on teaching. Teachers must help students make connections across subjects and learn how to learn. Instructional strategies must be flexible to accommodate different student needs and learning styles. Planning starts with assessing student prerequisites and explaining the outcomes to be achieved. Teachers then provide instruction, practice opportunities, and feedback to help ensure all students achieve the outcomes.

OUTCOME-BASED EDUCATION
Teaching is only teaching
if learners learn It is the responsibility of the teachers to construct meaningful learning experiences that lead to the mastery of outcomes Your main focus should be on learning rather than teaching. Students cannot learn if they do not think. Thinking is facilitated and encouraged by the process that you use to engage students with the content, as well as by the content itself. Your subject does not exist in isolation you have to help students make LINKS to other subjects. You have a responsibility to help students LEARN HOW TO LEARN You cannot assume that all students will learn equally well from an instructional strategy you choose. You cannot assume that all students will learn the same things in any fixed period of time. If you are to help all students to achieve the outcomes, you must be flexible in the way that you teach and in the expectations that you have for each student at any particular time When teaching is focused on students achievement of particular outcomes, it is necessary to consider the knowledge, skills, attitudes and preconceptions that students have prior to instruction. Teachers must consider their own knowledge, skills and attitudes relevant to the outcomes, because these will influence how teaching is approached Additional factors such as the resources that are available, and any constraints must also be considered Successful learning for all students is both the starting point and the bottom line of outcomes-based planning. Start by assessing the students prerequisite knowledge and skills; if they do not understand essential prior knowledge, or if they do not have the skills on which you want to build, you must provide instruction on these prerequisites. Prepare the students by explaining the outcomes that they are to achieve and why you want them to achieve these outcomes. provide whatever forms of whole-class instruction or individual/ group work you consider will have the best chance of enabling all the students to achieve mastery organise guided practice for the students so that they can be evaluated informally and provided with feedback to enhance their learning.
