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
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
SAMR: Substitution
Replacing a task with a direct technology based equivalent.
Examples:
As a calculator
As a word processor
As a worksheet
SAMR: Augmentation
Replacing a task with a technology based equivalent that adds some functionality.
Examples:
Taking a quiz
Reading eBooks
Writing on Google Drive
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
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.
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
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
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.
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.
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
Student Use of SAMR
Differentiation and open-ended tasks Anchor charts Explicit teaching Opportunities to apply it Feedback
SAMR for the ICT Leader
SAMR is a learning continuum
So why aren’t people not using it as one?
SAMR for the ICT leader
SAMR as a:
Feedback tool
Performance and development tool
Self-assessment strategy
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?
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
Providing Support
Provide targeted assistance for particular levelsExamples: Techie Brekkies for people moving towards Redefinition
In class support for people at Substitution, moving towards Augmentation
Model classes for people moving towards Modification
In Defense of Substitution
Everyone has to start somewhere
Positive support encourages, negative pressure diminishes
Focus on successes
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
