Educate. Transform. Inspire.

Every professional discipline has its fundamental concepts. The theories of behaviorism, cognitivism, and constructivism had formed the backbone for learning theories in EdTech 1.0. However, new potential theories are constantly emerging as well, such as 'Connectivism', a learning theory for the digital age where learning moves into a more informal, networked, technology-enabled arena.

SAMR MODEL

Through the work of Dr. Ruben Puentedura, the SAMR Model (Substitution, Augmentation, Modification ,Redefinition) provides a camera view of progression, allowing for technology interaction and increased student engagement. As educators become familiar with the SAMR Model it allows reflection and evaluation of technology integration practices while striving for powerful learning opportunities for their students. The first two steps involve technology as an enhancement tool and the last two involve technology as a transformation tool. Many times the steps between enhancement and transformation can take a bit of time as educators practice, reflect, and learn.

  • Substitution:  
    Tech acts as a direct too substitute, with no functional change
  • Augmentation:
    Tech acts as a direct substitute tool, with functional improvement
  • Modification:
    Tech allows for significant task redesign
  • Redefinition:
    Tech allows for creation of new tasks that were previously inconceivable
