SECTIONS MODELo Framework for selecting and using educational
technology called the SECTIONS model. • Bates & Poole (2003)
o Using this model offers analysis for what technology would be best, based on your needs. This model can be used at levels, from administration-level strategy to course-level tactics

SECTIONS MODELo What is the SECTIONS model?
o S - Students: Who are the students and what do we know about them? How appropriate is the technology for this group?
o E - Ease of Use and Reliability: Teachers and students must be able to use the technology without difficulty or it will detract from the actual learning.
o C - Costs: How much will the technology cost in overall terms and per user?o T - Teaching and learning: What instructional needs are there? What kinds of learning
are needed? What technology will best support these needs?o I - Interactivity: What kind of interaction does the technology allow?o O - Organizational Issues: What requirements or barriers has the institution placed on
technology use? How can these be met or removed? Are any organizational changes required?
o N - Novelty: Is the technology new? How proven is it?o S - Speed: How quickly can this technology be implemented into a course? How
quickly can changes be made if required?
