who is a TA teacher?
The Thinking Approach (TA) teacher is the one interested in simultaneous development of thinking and subject matter skills of learners. Thinking skills are developed by learning to apply models that originate from the General Theory of Powerful Thinking (OTSM) based on the Theory of Inventive Problem Solving (TRIZ) to construct tools for solving specific problems in various disciplines.
