The activity was presented by Dr. Eng. Wahyu Ramadhan, Assistant Director of Program Development at the Directorate of Educational Transformation and Learning Technology, IPB University.
This event was attended by Heads of Study Programs and academic representatives from various departments within the university, including the Development Economics Study Program. The activity served as part of the university’s continuous commitment to enhancing the quality of higher education, ensuring that academic programs are aligned with the evolving standards and principles of OBE implementation.
During the session, Dr. Eng. Wahyu Ramadhan provided in-depth insights into the concepts, frameworks, and best practices of Outcome-Based Education, particularly in relation to curriculum design, course learning outcomes (CLOs), and assessment strategies. Through his presentation and interactive discussions, participants were encouraged to reflect on how OBE principles can be effectively applied to strengthen the relevance and impact of each study program.
