“new generation classroom”
In Cambodia’s university system, the concept
of learning outcome based education is not new.
It is known as a modern method of education
based curriculum designed [program, course &
degree] starting with a clear picture of what is
important for students to be able to do … and
then organizing the curriculum, course delivery
and assessment to make sure learning happens...
Institutionally speaking the concept we
applied is an input-output based education
[enrollment – teaching & learning process –
assessment and graduation].
However, in our current university system,
the learning outcome based curriculum designed
is made positively progress but at the same time it
has challenging with limited resources.
NUM has introduced concept of
learning outcome based education
by the development of curriculum
designed, activity of teaching and
learning inside/outside classroom
and upgrade modern facilities
within good learning environment.
