OBE Reform Paradigm

"...if you and your colleagues haven't read Chester Finn's article "The Biggest Reform of All" in the April 1990 issue of the Phi Delta Kappan, then do so forthwith as well. Not only does it summarize the theoretical groundwork about paradigms first developed by Thomas Kuhn, it also provides a compelling analysis of OBE as being THE paradigm of reform that is now shaping the educational policy dialogue throughout the U.S. (and Canada, I might add). Talk about an unsolicited endorsement!"
