Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -1. What is the definition of “Outcome Based Education”? Outcome-based education (OBE) is education in which an emphasis is placed on a clearly articulated idea of what students are expected to know and be able to do, that is, what skills and knowledge they need to have, when they leave the school system.

Detailed explanation-2: -A learning outcome is a statement that describes what knowledge, skills and values learners should have acquired by the end of a subject. Outcomes focus on what the students will know, do, or value when they exit the course, program or degree. Note that the focus is on the student rather than the teacher.

Detailed explanation-3: -Program Outcomes or Student Outcomes are narrower statements that describe what the students are expected to know and be able to do by the time of graduation. These relate to the knowledge (cognitive), skills (psychomotor), and behaviour (affective) that the student acquire through the programme.

Detailed explanation-4: -Characteristics of outcome-based education similar to mastery-based learning: There are clear criteria for what constitutes mastery. Instruction is thoughtful and adapts to learner needs. Learners are assisted when and where they have challenges.
