基于输出的评估( OBA )是为确保工科专业毕业生获得成功职业生涯所具有的技能和知识的一种新的评估方法。目前,有15个国家或地区签署了执行这种评估方法的“华盛顿协议”。中国已经开始应用这种评估方法,可以预见在未来的几年也将执行这样的协议。除了传统的以输入为基础的评估标准,OBA代表一种新的工科专业教育的评估标准。文章首先介绍了国外在执行OBA过程中的经验,并简短地描述了评估过程原理,包括管理组织机构、评估原理、评估设计、数据收集和分析,以及通过反馈进行持续的改进。福州大学土木工程学院将OBA应用于评估路桥专业学生的口述表达能力。由于OBA在各个国家是相似的,当中国科技协会强制要求各高校执行OBA时,这篇文章将有助于中国各地高校顺利地实施。

[Abstract]
Outcome-based assessment (OBA) is an emerging approach for ensuring that graduates of engineering programs acquire the skills and knowledge required for successful professional careers. Currently, 15 countries that are signatories of the Washington Accord implement this assessment approach. China, which holds a provisional status of the accord, will implement this system in the next few years. The OBA represents a new criterion for accreditation of engineering programs in addition to the traditional input-based assessment criteria. This paper presents an overview of the OBA process based on the experience of other countries. A brief description of the elements of the assessment process is presented, including leadership structure, assessment elements, assessment design, data collection and analysis, and feedback for continual improvement. A pilot study for assessing oral presentations in the College of Civil Engineering at Fuzhou University is described. Since OBA in various countries is similar, this paper should help engineering programs around China in the implementation of this process when it becomes mandatory by the China Association for Science and Technology.
