This virtual museum document summarizes a museum tour that showcases how the SAMR model can be applied in educational settings through various exhibits and artifacts. The museum contains 5 rooms with artifacts demonstrating how the SAMR model has been used with technologies like iPads, Microsoft Word, and in developing classroom activities. It also includes exhibits showing the relationship between the SAMR model and Bloom's taxonomy, as well as different ways the SAMR levels can be demonstrated through classroom tasks.

One of the leading trends in the creation of 21st
century thinkers, is the adaption of Bloom’s
Taxonomy. Used in all subjects and across all
mediums, not only is it able to target low end
thinkers, but also advance learners to guide
and assist with higher order thinking (the new
21st
thinker).
The SAMR model was created and adapted to
the technological framework to provide an
effective scaffolding tool that allows teachers to
identify what types of ICT’s are going to
enhance or transform students into these new
thinkers. This model has been adapted not only
in schools, but also in businesses globally.
The combination of the SAMR model and
Bloom’s Taxonomy, helps teachers make the
necessary applications that are required to
promote all learners to the new world market.

Bloom’s Taxonomy and SAMR Model
9. (IPadWells, 2014)
Working with i-Pad apps is still relatively
unexplored in term of valuable apps which can
be used in the classroom. Once, apps were
limited by coding, so specific code writers were
needed to write applications. However now,
with introduction of select and place
WebPages, like weebly and wix, we are now
seeing more app creators gracing the stores of
apple’s online app market. What this means is,
teachers can now become bogged in masses of
applications that all look and appear valuable.
And while most of this is true, we mere
teachers still need a scaffolding model to help
navigate student learning. The Model
displayed on the right, introduces the SAMR
model to apple’s online App’s market and
allows teachers to sift through the many
different apps that are available.

This is another way the SAMR model can be used in
classrooms to improve learning. The example here is of
MS word and explores levels that this software
applications can be used to firstly enhance, then
transform.
At the substitution level teachers are using MS word as a
substitute for handwritten notes. At the augmentation
level, MS word becomes limitly functional with the
conjunction of skydive and, the new windows 365 allows
auto save and syncing and cloud sharing.
At the modification level MS word redesigns some tasks
with the availability of comments, where
students/teachers can collaborate and share feedback
on tasks.
At redefinition level, learning becomes transformed.
They can use the internet to connect to classrooms in
another part of the country or world and write a
community narrative of the same event, and use voice
comments to discuss the differences, which can then be
embedded into a website.

This version of the SAMR model lists some different
classroom tasks that will enable teachers to use tools
that will scaffold their students from enhancement to
transformative.
Substitution
Note taking in notes
Research using safari or Google and cut n paste
Presentations in keynote or PowerPoint
File sharing every lesson via email
Reading from emailed pdf
Assessment via Google form test
Redefinition
Note taking. Teacher is able to access students notes
Reasearch - Collaborative mind maps
Presentation - Prezi and glogster
File sharing - Itunes U
Reading – Interactive e-books
Assessment – Creative assignment with audio
feedback.

SAMR in the classroom
29. (Marketoonist & Fisburne, 2011)
This image was sourced from Google images at
the beginning of the program. I had no reason
to save it at the time, but thought it reflected
current classroom trends adequately. Now I
have reason to use this image, and it still
makes me giggle.
The inclusion of this image in this museum,
indicates that PowerPoint slides are now
entering a dangerous phase of elimination, if
teachers can not find better effective ways to
engage students. We must let PowerPoint's
become extinct! They do not belong in a
museum but in the classrooms, running freely
and filling the information gaps in students
across the world.
