Using The Obe Educational Concept To Design A Choreography Course For Teachers’colleges Aligned With Their Talent Development

Abstract

This research focuses on the following issue of the contemporary development of Outcome-Based Education (OBE) and its role in the formation of present-day curricula in higher learning institutions, particularly in the field of dance education. Nevertheless, due to the growing emphasis on lifelong learning, the application of OBE principles to the training of dance choreographers in colleges and universities has not yet been properly enhanced. The purpose of the present study is to identify the best practice for integrating OBE to enhance the education of dance, in particular the need to develop the innovative and practical stance of students to meet the increasing social needs. To accomplish this, the study utilizes the following research techniques; literature review, knowledge obtained from case studies for benchmarking, expert opinions and judgment (IOC), interviews with stakeholders and survey. The studies show that the application of OBE principles can enrich the content of the teaching, expand the forms of pedagogy, and improve the means of evaluation, thus making the dance choreographer courses more diverse. For instance, in embracing the student centered approach in the OBE philosophy of the study, the paper establishes how course content corresponds to career paths, and enshrine usable modules like choreography in primary and secondary education.Further, the research offers precise directions on course delivery and in details ways of structuring curricula, course timetable, teaching and assessment methods with the view of achieving quality course delivery. However, the study also points to some difficulties that may occur while implementing OBE among them there are problems connected to teacher training, an assessment system’s development, and students’ adjustment; thus, the study presents recommendations for future research in these points.Therefore, the factors highlighted in this study stress the importance of the OBE concept as a valuable addition for the further development of dance choreographer course and as the basis for new attitudes and pedagogic approaches to dance education. The results thus inform a more diverse course offering that addresses society’s demands, opens up job markets for graduates, and provides practical solutions for cultivating dancer potential with innovation complemented by technical abilities.
