Taba's model involves 5 steps: 1) creating units of work, 2) testing units with students, 3) adapting units based on testing, 4) creating a framework to ensure all material is covered, and 5) implementing units in the classroom while creating new ones. The model also involves 7 major steps with teacher input, such as diagnosing needs, formulating objectives, selecting and organizing content, choosing learning experiences, and evaluating. The Taba model emphasizes an inductive, grass-roots approach with teachers designing curriculum.
