Integrating Technology using the SAMR Model
- 1. Integrating Technology using the SAMR Model
- 2. Teachers must prepare their students to be global, 21st century citizens and lifelong learners. These are some questions which teachers have to ponder about: How do we help our students become culturally literate? How can we introduce our students to their global peers? What skills must students learn to be literate in the 21st century?
- 3. Characteristics of 21st century learners Problem Solving http://www.educatorstechnology.com/2013/06/12-important-attributes-of-21st-century.html Risk taking Being willing to work Feeling confident Being motivated Being responsible Showing care Showing respect Being persevering Being focused Working with others Using common sense
- 4. In 21st century education possessing knowledge is not adequate. So teachers must provide any environment which helps their students to learn: • To communicate • To collaborate • To think critically • To work creatively • To embrace technologies • To be lifelong learners
- 5. What students learn How students learn Tools students use to learn The three-legged stool concept
- 6. These students aren’t excited because of the technology. It’s about what they’re LEARNING with the technology. Technology is a Tool, not a learning outcome
- 9. It is the teacher’s imagination, creativity and aptitude in integrating technology into lessons that has the greatest impact on whether or not educational technology is effective.
- 13. Substitution Technology is used as a direct substitute with no function at all. Handouts are emailed to students or placed on the VLE. PowerPoint presentations are uploaded on the VLE. A note-taking app is used to draft a document. eBooks are used in reading groups. Teacher writes on the IWB.
- 14. Augmentation Technology adds functional improvement. Students take a quiz online. Immediate feedback is given. Basic functions of eBooks are used such as Read To Me. Spell check and thesaurus are used. Images and graphics are easily embedded. Writing an email.
- 15. Modification Technology redesigns part of the task. 1 • Teacher shifts the focus of some of the writing task to be collaborative. 2 • Students use an online collaborative space (Wikis) to write in small groups, conduct peer editing and feedback and to comment on final products. 3 • Students download and annotate images using Skitch or PicSay.
- 16. Modification Technology redesigns part of the task. 1 • Students create and scan a QR Code. 2 • Students draw their own pictures or take photos. Then they add audio recordings to create a video. 3 • Students use an online forum to discuss about a given topic.
- 17. Technology is used innovatively in ways never possible before. Redefinition 1 • Children’s drawings come to life by using Aurasma.
- 19. Redefinition 1 • Using media other than Word processing tools to convey deep analytical thought: digital storytelling or comic creation.
- 20. Redefinition 1 • Teachers and students use Skype to connect with experts and other classrooms all over the world.
- 23. Workshop 1: Planning activities using the SAMR model Attivita` tal-Istudju Soċjali: Blokk Ċ 4.2: Il-ħajja fil-belt jew raħal tagħna Think of four activties related to the above. Each activity must fall under a different level of the SAMR model.
- 24. Substitution Augmentation Modification Redefinition Typing information about your town or city. Creating a brochure or guide about your town or city. Creating a guide which incorporated multimedia and student collaboration that includes video and student narration. Explore the location using Google Earth to promote the viability of the location as a tourist destination. Inclusion of interviews with residents and sharing online with other schools.
- 25. Substitution Augmentation Modification Redefinition Book report typed on MS Word. Book report is spell-checked, emailed for approval, revised, printed for the teacher. Book report is delivered in a variety of formats using multimedia tools. Book report involving communication and collaboration with other learners.
- 26. https://childrenasresearchers.wikispaces.com/samr Whole class discussion, typing ideas on Word. Use Easi-View and projector to write ideas, add drawings and highlights. On an individual level students use a mindmapping tool and report back at the end of the session. Students mindmap in groups then share ideas on a collaborative document where they can read each other’s ideas and add any new they have.
- 28. Workshop 2: Classifying activities in videos using the SAMR model • Watch the video assigned to your group. • List the classroom activities and identify the SAMR level reached and why. • Share your ideas with the rest of the teachers.
Editor's Notes
- #3: Questions to consider: Do pupils work in teams/groups? Are we allowing for creativity? Are my pupils given opportunities to present their work to their peers? Do we guide them in how to look up information? Do we show them how to identify reliable online sources? Do we guide them to reflect and be critical of what they read, see and write? All the above support and nurture 21st century skills.
- #10: It is important that you don’t think of these as “tablet lessons”, but equally you also have to be prepared for teaching and learning to be different. It will be an expensive purchase if you put the devices in front of the students and teachers do the same as they did before. Tablets will change the possibilities with what the students can do during the lessons and the types of outputs that students can produce. Teachers can provide lesson content, and give feedback in new ways and this should impact on student learning and assessment.
- #11: SAMR - a model to help us evaluate, assess and enhance these teaching practices.
- #14: Substitution: “handouts” are emailed to students directly or placed on the College Learning Management System (Moodle) so students can download them. Powerpoint presentations are made available to students for download instead of hand writing the key notes down from the Powerpoint or whiteboard.
