dc.description.abstract	The arrival of outcomes-based education (OBE) in South African means that we have to change the way in which we assess our learners. Coupled with this change comes a move to larger classes where individual assessment has become difficult. This has led to frustration on the part of educators as well as learners. This paper investigates the needs of the OBE system with regards to assessment and then proposes an object-oriented model for storing all the information needs. It is suggested that the model can meet the needs of both the human educator and the learner and with more detailed information, even the needs of a computer system.	en
