Implementation of OBE in the Engineering Graphics Course and Analysis of Academic Performance

The first year students of 2005/2006 session is the first batch of students who were exposed to the Outcome-Based Education (OBE) and were evaluated for Program-Outcomes (PO) entirely beginning the first year until they have graduated. The Graphical Engineering Course (KF1173) is the faculty's mandatory course that must be taken by every first year student in the Faculty of Engineering adn Built Environment, UKM. This course is comprised of laboratory work (computer software application of AutoCAD), projects according to respective departments and examinations (quizzes, mid-terms, and final examination). This is to fulfil the six POs. This paper presents on the analysis of students (2005/2006 session) under the course's academic achievement by taking departments, gender and race into consideration. The aim is to review them based on these aspects with the highest academic achievements and better understanding of the course based on the Outcome-Based Education (OBE).
