6. SAMR Model
Developed over 5 years ago by Dr. Ruben
Puentedura
In simple terms, SAMR is the acronym for
summarizing a four-stage model for looking at and
understanding one's use of educational technology
from Gary Akerman's blog http://www.nelms.org/blog/index.php

7. 4 Stages to Integration
• 1 - Substitution: technology acts as a direct tool
substitute with no functional change.
• 2 - Augmentation: technology acts as a direct tool
substitute with functional improvement.
• 3 - Modification: technology allows for significant task
redesign.
• 4 - Redefinition: technology allows for the creation of
new tasks, previously inconceivable.
