An example of how the Taba model works:
- Students receive an article, and are told to note all examples they can find in the article of "change"
- These ideas are presented to the class, all ideas are expressed on the board
- Students then group these ideas in a method of their choice
- These groups are then labeled, with an explanation provided by the student
- Students are next challenged to regroup their ideas based on a different question posed to the class by the teacher "Who had the greatest need for change"
- Finally, students synthesize their information, provide summaries of the data and form generalizations.
