Humanities education reform exploration and practice under outcomes-based education (OBE) by P. Yang

“…Moreover, this model assumes understanding to be more valuable than memory; the traditional “cramming” of educational information by students can be completely excluded; also, such model provides an opportunity to establish a continuous productive dialogue between the participants of educational process and to transform a classroom into a laboratory. The student becomes an active, self-motivated and responsible actor of his or her own individual educational trajectory, not a passive consumer of information, and the teacher – active assistant and coordinator of education.…”
