About the Session: FDP session started from 11am. The speaker, Dr C S Biju focused on the significance of Outcome Based Education in the current scenario of Education. He addressed the issues that may arise when the OBE framework is implemented without room for flexibility at institutions like Chetana, where the main focus of study are media and performing arts. In many situations at such places, a purely empirical approach to quantification of outcome may not gel with the original vision and intentions of such a practical oriented and creative arts programme. After the talk, the faculty members gave the feedback that this FDP session enriched them to a great extent. This sense of satisfaction is reflected in their comments and queries.
