DEMOCRATISATION OF EDUCATION
Is rather an amorphousphrase, which one can parkall kinds of political andeconomic consideration.
DEMOCRATISATION OF EDUCATION
Basically is a condition for theprogress of the society,favourable conditions andobstacles, quality ofeducation in relation to therequirement of socio-economic development
LIBERALISATION Liberating education consists in acts of cognition, not
transferals of information. It is a learning situation in which the cognizable
object (far from being the end of the cognitive act) intermediates the cognitive actors -- teacher on the one hand and students on the other. Accordingly, the practice of problem-posing education entails at the outset that the teacher-student contradiction to be resolved. Dialogical relations -- indispensable to the capacity of cognitive actors to cooperate in perceiving the same cognizable object --are otherwise impossible.

Why do we need to democratize and liberalize Allied Health
Sciences Education? Change in the Health Care System Traditionally it is to cure Focus of health care has shifted from model
of cure to: Controlling of symptoms Maximising patients level of functioning
and quality of life Helping patient and families to cope with
long-term illness.

Why must change?30 years of research show many of our students are epistemological Dualists: They view the world in rigid categories of black- white, right-wrong, and good-bad, and their knowledge is passivelyreceived from Authorities.They dont understand that knowledge is constructed by a very active, personal making of meaning. They dont understand the role played by evidence when they select from among competing hypotheses, opinions, and values. In other words, they do not understand critical thinking processes.
Why must change?Moral values the pre-eminent of the learning institution outcome we ought to produce. The best studied of several aspects of moral development, moral judgment, is known to be linked to moral action
Gardiner, L. F. Why We Must Change: The Research Evidence THE NEA HIGHER EDUCATION JOURNAL http://www.nea.org/assets/img/PubThoughtAndAction/TAA_00Fal_13.pdf
Why must change? All three of these important dimensions of cognition
using abstract symbols, epistemology, and principled, ethical reasoning as well as the ability to work cooperatively in teams with people different from oneself, require for their development that students be actively involved in learning. It is unlikely that lectures alone can bring about the profound cognitive reorganizations required, produce the interpersonal skills that must be developed, and foster the substantial changes in disposition toward learning and human diversity required for these important changes to occur.
Gardiner, L. F. Why We Must Change: The Research Evidence THE NEA HIGHER EDUCATION JOURNAL http://www.nea.org/assets/img/PubThoughtAndAction/TAA_00Fal_13.pdf
Why must change?Change the comatose receptors and collectors ofinformationThe teacher talks about reality as if it weremotionless, static, compartmentalized, andpredictable. Or else he expounds on a topiccompletely alien to the existential experience of thestudents. His task is to "fill" the students with thecontents of his narration -- contents which aredetached from reality, disconnected from the totalitythat engendered them and could give themsignificance. Words are emptied of their concretenessand become a hollow, alienated, and alienatingverbosity.
Why must change?Education thus becomes an act ofdepositing, in which the students are thedepositories and the teacher is the depositor.Instead of communicating, the teacher issuescommuniques and makes deposits which thestudents patiently receive, memorize, andrepeat.This is the "banking' concept of education, inwhich the scope of action allowed to thestudents extends only as far as receiving,filing, and storing the deposits
Why must change?The banking concept of education regards men as adaptable, manageable beings. The more students work at storing the deposits entrusted to them, the less they develop the critical consciousness which would result from their intervention in the world as transformers of that world. The more completely they accept the passive role imposed on them, the more they tend simply to adapt to the world as it is and to the fragmented view of reality deposited in them.
Why must change?In the 20th century, the approach to education was to focus on learning-about and to build stocks of knowledge and some cognitive skills in the student to be deployed later in appropriate situations. This approach to education worked well in a relatively stable, slowly changing world where students could expect to learn one set of skills and use them throughout their lives. Careers often lasted a lifetime. But the 21st century is quite different. The world is continuously changing at an increasing pace. Skills learned today are apt to be out-of-date all too soon. When technical jobs change, we can no longer expect to send a person back to school to be re-trained or to learn a new profession. By the time that happens, the domain of inquiry is likely to have morphed yet again.
-John Seely Brown
Why must change?1. the teacher teaches and the students are taught; 2. the teacher knows everything and the students know nothing; 3. the teacher thinks and the students are thought about; 4. the teacher talks and the students listen -- meekly; 5. the teacher disciplines and the students are disciplined; 6. the teacher chooses and enforces his choice, and the students comply; 7. the teacher acts and the students have the illusion of acting through the
action of the teacher; 8. the teacher chooses the program content, and the students (who were
not consulted) adapt to it; 9. the teacher confuses the authority of knowledge with his or her own
professional authority, which she and he sets in opposition to the freedom of the students;
10. the teacher is the Subject of the learning process, while the pupils are mere objects.

21st century learning
Dr. Robert Sternberg (2006) -Optimizing Student SuccessSternberg explains the theory of successful intelligence as your ability to achieve what you want in life, and that could be any prosocial activity within your sociocultural context. The theory suggests that successfully intelligent people achieve what they want by capitalizing on their strengths, correcting or compensating for their weaknesses, and adapting to, shaping, and selecting their environments.
21st century learning
Curriculum must develop 3Rs: Reasoning Resilience Responsibility
21st century skills Tony Wagner (2008) proposes that students
need 7 survival skills to be prepared for 21stCentury life, work and citizenship:
Critical thinking and problem solving Collaboration and leadership Agility and adaptability Initiative and entrepreneurialism Effective oral and written communication Accessing and analysing information Curiosity and imagination
What is learning? Relatively permanent change in
behavior or mental state based on experience Relatively permanent change: Can be
altered with future learning Behavior: Some response to a situation or
event Mental state: knowledge, attitude, belief,
strategy
Learning

Why OBE? OBE in Act 679
OUTCOME BASED EDUCATION
Quality
Accountability
outlines specific, measurable outcomes
Why Outcome Based Education (OBE)?
The proof of good education andtraining is in finding whether:learning has really taken placelearning has equipped learners
with the skills and knowledgethat will enable them to solveauthentic problems in aworkplace situation.
Why OBE? the quality of education:
highly valued by the community and by nations; seen as fundamental to being successful in this
knowledge age. What matters today :
good education and training =key aspects for being successful in life.
It is too time-consuming for learners to attend academic institutions; get qualifications and then still have to get in-service training to be able to do the job.
Therefore, good education and training should not only be of an academic nature, but it should also prepare learners adequately for the workplace.
Why OBE? About 44,000 graduates are without jobs as they have
nothing outstanding to offer to the job markets although they possess degrees and diplomas.
Professor Emeritus Datuk Dr Khoo Kay Kim of Univ. Malaya said this was one problem which must be looked into.
He said this had been mainly caused by students memorising facts without knowing how to apply them in a particular situation.
As a result, most of them cant even do simple things or solve simple problems. Another factor is their laid-back attitude. This is one phenomenon that is evident today

Tan Sri Sri Megat Najmuddin, chairman of Asian World Summit, the organisersof the conference, said that while we were capable of producing over one hundred thousand graduates each year, our graduates lacked critical thinking and communication skills to survive in the real working world.
What is OBE ?
Education that is outcome-based, is a learner centered, results oriented system founded on the belief that all individuals can learn
James Towers (1996)
What is OBE ?
OBE is education based on producingparticular educational outcomes that: focuses on what students can actually
do after they are taught; expect all learners/students to
successfully achieve particular(sometimes minimum) level ofknowledge and abilities.
What is OBE ?Outcome based does not mean curriculum based with outcomes sprinkled on top. It is a transformational way of doing business in education. (Spady, 1993)OBE is an approach to education in which decisions about the curriculum are driven by the learning outcomes that students should display at the end of the course. These decisions include curriculum content, educational strategies, student selection and assessment.
ITS NOT WHAT WE TEACH, ITS WHAT THE STUDENTS LEARN

From teaching to learning
OBE basic foundations
All students can learn and succeed, but not all in the same time or in the same way.
Successful learning promotes even more successful learning.
Schools (and teachers) control the conditions that determine whether or not students are successful at school learning.

Content Based Learning System Outcomes Based Learning System
Passive students Active learnersAssessment process exam & grade driven Continuous assessment
Rote learning Critical thinking, reasoning, reflection & action
Content based/broken into subjects Integration knowledge, learning relevant/ connected real life situations
Textbook/worksheet focused & teacher centred Learner centred & educator/ facilitator use group/ teamwork
See syllabus as rigid & non negotiable Learning programmes seen as guides that allow educators to be innovative & creative in designing programmes/ activities
Teachers/trainers responsible for learning -motivated by personality of teacher
Learners take responsibility for their learning, learners motivated by constant feedback/ affirmation of worth
Emphasis what teacher hopes to achieve Emphasis outcomes what learner becomes & understands
Content placed in rigid time frames Flexible time frames - learners work at own pace
Paradigm Shift in the Education & Training Philosophy
From teacher-centered (TCL)
Traditional teaching teacher owns the knowledge and convey it to the students.
Teacher brings the content and the answers into the classroom/ training room with him / her.
to a student-centered (SCL)
SCL Based teaching : students (trainee) to learn as much as possible.
teacher as a coach/facilitator, innovator, motivator who asks questions and provides guidelines for the acquisition of knowledge.
(R.E. Gerber, 1996 in Shahrin Mohamed, 2007 )
(R.E. Gerber, 1996 in Shahrin Mohamed, 2007 )
Principles of OBEa) Clarity of focus about outcomes
Always have the outcomes as the focus. Let the students know what they are aiming for.
b) Designing backwards Design curriculum backward by using the major outcomes as the focus
and linking all planning, teaching and assessment decisions directly to these outcomes.
c) Consistent, high expectations of success Set the expectation that OBE is for ALL learners. Expect students to succeed by providing them encouragement to engage
deeply with the issues they are learning and to achieve the high challenging standard set (Spady, 1994).
d) Expanded opportunity Develop curriculum to give scope to every learner to learn in his/her own
pace. Cater for individual needs and differences, for example, expansion of
available time and resources so that all students succeed in reaching the exit outcomes.
OBE RequisitesWhat the students learn must be clearly identified.The students progress is based on demonstrated achievement.Multiple instructional and assessment strategies need to be available to meet the needs of each student.Adequate time and assistance need to be provided so that each student can reach the maximum potential
OBE Emphasis?
ASSESSMENT OF
OUTCOMES
OBE is assessment driven
Assessment is used to determine whether ornot a qualification/ condition/ criterion/ skill hasbeen achieved
To determine whether learners are successful,(i.e. whether students know they have learntwell) the learners must be assessed using theassessment criteria of the outcome
Relevancy of OBE
Rating/Accreditation requirements:
1. Quality Assurance Audit by the Ministry of Education: Malaysian Qualifications Framework (MQF) emphasis on learning outcomes.
2. Accreditation Requirement for Professional Programmes by professional bodies emphasizes learning outcomes
Real Benefits of OBE
Anticipation of real benefits More directed & coherent curriculum Graduates will be more relevant to
industry & other stakeholders (more well rounded graduates)
Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) is an inevitable consequence
OBE is an educational process.
Directed/focussed at achieving certain specified outcomes in terms of individual student learning.
Outcomes - key things students should understand and be able to do or the qualities they should develop.
Both structures and curricula are designed to achieve those capabilities or qualities.
Educational structures and curriculum are regarded as means not ends. If they do not do the job they are rethought (Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI)).
Therefore, OBE
OBE is a process that involves the restructuring of curriculum, assessment and reporting practices in education to reflect the achievement of high order learning and mastery rather than accumulation of course credits.

CONCLUSION
What kind of education do we need?
The answer to the question lies in the answer to a different question: What kind of society do we want?
Eugenio Tironi: El sueo chileno (2005)
The Wingspread Group on Higher Education, 1995:
teaching is more than lecturing. active engagement in learning is more
productive than passive listening. we should evaluate institutional
performance against student outcomes.
We need to rededicate ourselves to the values that made us educators in the first place.
We need to see the familiar aspects of our work through the lens of a new paradigm.
Are our students ready for the new global economy?
Conclusion
Conclusion
Are our students critical thinkers and problem solvers?

Are our students self-directed?
Are our students good collaborators?
Are our students flexible and adaptable?
Are our students innovative?
Are our students effective communicators?
