Unit–16: Glasser’s Basic Teaching Model

Notes

Article represents in writing. The goal of this step is to increase knowledge. In

the fourth step, student practice for suffixes. In this step, students are assisted in
developing the suffi x.

16.3 An Inductive Model of Teaching

Hilda Taba is the originator of this model. It has been developed for teacher education due to which
pupil teacher can analyze the problems of learning and can solve them on the basis of diagnosis.
(i) Focus—Its main objective is the development of mental processes and the realization of theories.
(ii) Syntax—In this model, situations are created for the development of mental processes which
develops and realize the suffi xes. The use of rules, suffi xes and views are taken into consideration. In

teaching matrix, actions are presented in such a order that the suffixes are possible to be understand.
The sequence of teaching process presents its syntax. Group discussion is not allowed in this process.
Information and facts as presented in a complex form. Certain steps are followed in this syntax. The
order of these steps is-
(a) A list of teaching actions is prepared in the fi rst step.
(b) Teaching actions are divided into sections in the second step.
(c) Teaching actions are explained in the third step.
(d) The directions and relations of teaching actions are determined in the fourth step.
(e) The direction of the relationship of these actions is interpreted in the fi fth step.
(f) These are concluded on the basis of explanation in the sixth step.
(g) The concepts of the results are rendered in the seventh step.
(h) Concepts are explained and facts and data are presented to them in the eight step.

Confirmation and generalizaiton of concept is done in the last step.
(iii) Social System—In this model, classroom environment provides more opportunities for students’
activities. Teacher begins his activities with students’ activities. The sequence of teaching is pre-
determined. Teacher controls the behavior and actions of students. There is a spirit of collaboration in
the classroom. At each step the teacher acts as a director. Teacher uses the question for the development
of cognitive side. Teacher prepares students for the new experiences. Such experience is provided which
can develop cognitive side.
(iv) Support System—For this model, Taba gives importance to such teaching format which can be used
for knowledge of social subjects. The emphasize is give to realization of facts, data and information.
Therefore, the objective test are included in the evaluation. Written exams are not helpful in this.
(v) Application—‘Taba’ considered it more useful for the development of thinking abilities. It is included
for the development of mental activities. Its priority is to develop utility-thinking abilities. This model
is used to make students realize information, facts and data. This model is considered as more useful
model for teaching social subjects. It is also include in the teaching of science couse material.
