📄 Abstract
This study examined the implementation of outcome-based teaching and learning (OBTL) in Forensic Chemistry and Toxicology at Taguig City University and its implications for developing a laboratory manual. Using a descriptive research design, the study assessed the extent to which OBTL principles were applied in the delivery of forensic chemistry and toxicology courses, focusing on curriculum alignment, teaching strategies, assessment methods, and student performance outcomes. Data were gathered from faculty members and students through survey questionnaires and interviews, supported by documentary analysis of course syllabi and instructional materials. Findings revealed that while outcome-based approaches were generally applied in classroom instruction, there were notable gaps in laboratory activities, assessment practices, and alignment with desired learning outcomes. These gaps highlight the need for a standardized and comprehensive laboratory manual to support consistent implementation of OBTL in forensic chemistry and toxicology courses. The study concludes that developing a laboratory manual anchored in OBTL principles will enhance instructional delivery, promote hands-on learning, and ensure that students acquire the necessary competencies for professional practice.
