Abstract

The essential elements of an outcomes-based educational program (OBE) are described. These four critical questions regarding school improvement, posed by the leader in OBE, Johnson City Central School District, Johnson City, NY, frame the discussion: What do we believe? What do we know? What do we want? What do we do? Theoretical discussion and results of studies of OBE are presented. A plan for introducing OBE into a school district is included.
