Description
This study investigates innovative teaching methods within Pakistan's educational system, with a specific emphasis on the adoption of Outcome-Based Education (OBE) as a framework. The country is currently grappling with the need to modernize its education system to meet the demands of the 21st century, prompting a search for creative approaches. Transformative pedagogies, which prioritize contemporary viewpoints and learner-centered methods, aim to address the limitations associated with traditional rote-learning. The research focuses on OBE as a key element in this exploration, given its emphasis on clearly defined learning outcomes to adequately prepare graduates. The study delves into the implementation of OBE, examining its impact on learner engagement, critical thinking, and adaptability within the Pakistani context. Recognizing challenges such as resource constraints and cultural expectations, the research also identifies opportunities, particularly in the integration of technology. Using a multi-method approach, including interviews, observations, and document analysis conducted over an academic year, the research reveals variations in OBE implementation, a positive relationship between transformative pedagogies and learner engagement, and diverse effects on students at different educational levels. Recommendations stemming from the findings include the establishment of a standardized OBE framework, faculty development, and increased integration of technology. Future research directions are proposed to explore the long-term impacts of these pedagogical approaches and the role of technology and community engagement. This study provides crucial insights for shaping an adaptive educational system in Pakistan amid the evolving global landscape.
