This document discusses using the SAMR model to improve technology integration in the classroom. SAMR is a framework that categorizes technology use as substitution, augmentation, modification, or redefinition. Using SAMR can help teachers improve lesson planning, student learning, and student use of technology. It also provides school leaders a tool for supporting teachers in advancing their technology skills along the continuum. The key is implementing SAMR as a learning progression and providing appropriate support to teachers.

Using SAMR to improve ICT use in the classroom
- 1. Using SAMR to Improve ICT Use in the Classroom @becdavies00 Slides available at http://www.rebecca-davies.net/acec2014
- 2. Overview What is SAMR? SAMR to the classroom teacher to improve planning To improve learning to improve student use SAMR to the leadership Using SAMR as a continuum with staff Getting others on board Top Tips for Integrating the SAMR model
- 3. What is SAMR? A model of technology integration BUT Often theorised about, not often implemented “There can be infinite uses of the computer and of new age technology, but if the teachers themselves are not able to bring it into the classroom and make it work, then it fails.” – Nancy Kassebaum
- 4. SAMR: Substitution Replacing a task with a direct technology based equivalent. Examples: As a calculator As a word processor As a worksheet
- 5. SAMR: Augmentation Replacing a task with a technology based equivalent that adds some functionality. Examples: Taking a quiz Reading eBooks Writing on Google Drive
- 6. SAMR: Modification Technology allows for the task to be redesigned for further learning Examples: Writing collaboratively Filming a maths question Using AR to connect written and visual work
- 7. SAMR: Redefinition Technology allows completely new tasks to be created. Examples: Global collaboration Sharing learning on the internet Creating eBooks with videos, images and text.
- 8. SAMR for the Classroom Teacher SAMR improves lesson planning How? Identifies the ‘fall back’ option Allows easier goal setting – ‘I will have one modification lesson a week!’ Makes the purpose of EdTech clearer
- 9. SAMR for the Classroom Teacher SAMR improves student learning How? Setting objectives and providing feedback provides a 23 percentile gain Non-linguistic representations provide a 27 percentile gain Cooperative learning provides a 23 percentile gain From Marzano’s/McREL’s Nine High Yield Strategies
- 10. Setting objectives and providing feedback Substitution: typing up feedback and printing Augmentation: Typing up feedback and posting to Edmodo to instigate a discussion. Modification: Students posting feedback online for their class mates. Redefinition: Students posting their learning online to receive feedback from people outside of their classroom.
- 11. Non-linguistic representations Substitution: Filling out a graphic organiser on an iPad Augmentation: Filling out a graphic organiser on an iPad including videos and links. Modification: Making a virtual model Redefinition: Displaying their understanding via a video, using numerous non-linguistic methods eg. Models, diagrams and images.
- 12. Introducing SAMR to students Introduce older students to SAMR during an authentic task How can they present their learning in the best way? Have you just typed it up? How can you move that up to Augmentation so you are learning more? Reference the SAMR model in your own class Excellent for modeling to teachers Provides students with examples
- 13. Student Use of SAMR Differentiation and open-ended tasks Anchor charts Explicit teaching Opportunities to apply it Feedback
- 14. SAMR for the ICT Leader SAMR is a learning continuum So why aren’t people not using it as one?
- 15. SAMR for the ICT leader SAMR as a: Feedback tool Performance and development tool Self-assessment strategy
- 16. Feed back/up/forward Feed up: What is their goal? SAMR as a continuum to identify purpose Feed back: Reflect on their practice. How did they go in relation to their goal? Feed forward: Where can they go next?
- 17. Getting others on board Teachers use new tools, theories and strategies when they can see why it is relevant to their classroom. Understand the reasons for moving towards modification/redefinition How will it help their students? How will it help them? Show them what it will look like in their classroom. Provide support and feedback
- 18. Providing Support Provide targeted assistance for particular levels Examples: Techie Brekkies for people moving towards Redefinition In class support for people at Substitution, moving towards Augmentation Model classes for people moving towards Modification
- 19. In Defense of Substitution Everyone has to start somewhere Positive support encourages, negative pressure diminishes Focus on successes
- 20. Top Tips for Integrating SAMR Use SAMR as a continuum Use it explicitly with students Show teachers why it is a useful model Support teachers through feed up/back/forward Focus on the positives – do not use a deficit model
