Outcome-Based Lesson Plan Design for Nutrition and Food Hygiene: A Case Study on Bacterial Food Poisoning

This study explores the design of lesson plans for a Nutrition and Food Hygiene course based on the Outcome-Based Education (OBE) philosophy, using bacterial food poisoning as a case study. The OBE philosophy, along with the revised Bloom's taxonomy of cognitive domains — remembering, understanding, applying, analyzing, evaluating, and creating — was applied to structure and organize the course content on bacterial food poisoning. Preliminary lesson plans aligned with both OBE principles and Bloom's Taxonomy were developed. Lesson plans designed within the OBE framework improve the clarity and implementation of educational objectives, ultimately enhancing teaching effectiveness and ensuring that students gain a deeper understanding of the subject matter.
