Bloom’s Taxonomy
3
Bloom’s Taxonomy
Taxonomy means 'a set of classification principles', or 'structure',
Bloom's Taxonomy was created in 1956 under the leadership of Dr. Benjamin
Bloom
It refers to a classification of the different learning objectives that teachers set for
students.
4
Goals of Bloom’s Taxonomy
This taxonomy of learning behaviors may be thought of as “the goals of the
learning process.”
After a learning episode, the learner should have acquired a new skill, knowledge
and attitude.
Bloom's taxonomy is a set of three hierarchical
models used to classify educational learning
objectives into levels of complexity and
specificity. The three lists cover the learning
objectives in cognitive, affective and sensory
domains.
5
Benjamin Samuel Bloom
Benjamin Samuel Bloom (February 21, 1913 – September 13, 1999) was an
American educational psychologist who made contributions to the classification of
educational objectives and to the theory of mastery learning.

Role of PEC
The main statutory functions of PEC include registration of engineers, consulting engineers,
constructors/operators and accreditation of engineering programmes offered by
universities/institutions, ensuring and managing of continuing professional development,
assisting the Federal Government as Think Tank.
The council shall encourage, facilitate and regulate working of professional engineering bodies
for creativity and as custodians of engineering under the umbrella of the Council.
24
Outcome Based Education
(OBE)
25
Outcome Based Education (OBE)
OBE is a process that involves 
assessment and evaluation
practices in education to reflect the 
attainment
 of 
expected
learning and showing mastery in the programme area.
26
Advantage of OBE system
HEC, PEC and many educational institutions of Pakistan are now moving towards
OBE because of its relative advantages over the traditional education system.
OBE emphasizes the achievement of student outcomes and thus improves the
quality of education and will bring it at par with international standards.
Outcome-based educational method has been adopted in education systems around
the world, from primary to higher education levels.
Accreditation bodies like ‘Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology
(ABET)’ and Washington Accord both accept OBE as the only teaching
methodology.
As most Pakistani engineering programs are aiming to get the OBE accreditation
from Washington Accord, it is the need of the day to develop a thorough
understanding of this new paradigm in Pakistan and be on the frontlines of this
change process.

Complex Engineering Problems and Open Ended Problems are part of
evaluation OBE system to develop and evaluate critical thinking in a
student.
Complex engineering problems are provided to students on individual
or group basis in some subjects of the curriculum. These problems are
intended to develop analytical, logical and research skills of the
students. These tasks provide opportunity to student to achieve the
desirable tasks with their learned skills.
The scenarios of the problem do not bound the students to stick strictly
to that subject rather they have to blend the acquired knowledge, on
hands skills and research tools to achieve the desired task.

Internship
51
The program should facilitate and promote cooperative learning
through supervised internship program of continuous 4-6 weeks
duration in an engineering practice environment / organization.
The training program should have been planned and agreed to between
the institution and the host organization.
The institution should receive report about each trainee indicating the
training details, interest shown by the student; his/her work habits and
punctuality.
Internship Program
Reference: PEC documents (MANUAL OF ACCREDITATION)
52
Student Advisory Council
53
Students councilors have been assigned to each section to guide the
students about their academic problems, career counselling and
aspects pertaining to wellness.
Each councilor associate with students from the day of admission till
the degree completion.

KPI Assessment
56
PLO Assessment
57
The program must ensure that each student has achieved all PLOs to
acceptable level through assessment of CLOs.
The appropriateness of the assessment methods along with the level of
achievement against the targeted outcomes must be evaluated.
Mapping of program outcomes to individual courses, nature of
assessment tools (direct/ indirect/rubrics) and the process of evaluation
to determine the attainment of PLOs should be demonstrated through
reasonably convincing evidences.
Learning Outcome Assessment
Reference: PEC documents (MANUAL OF ACCREDITATION)
58
Every student of the department needs to fulfil the achievement
criteria defined to qualify for the next semester. The passing criteria
for successful CLO and PLO completion is 50% and on cohort level,
KPI is 50%.
If any student fails to attain any CLOs or PLOs as per KPI (50%) then
he/she is required to follow the measures and steps as per university
policy.
Key Performance Indicator
for CLOs and PLOs Attainment
59
Each student must attain 50% of each PLO’s through direct measures.
However, in case of indirect assessment, assessment is carried out
through exit survey form and internship feedback form.
These forms will be accessed on cohort level.
The KPI of these forms are 6 out of 10.
If the KPI of indirect measurement does not meet the set criteria,
recommendations will be prepared by the OBE committee for
improving the weak graduate attributes.
