SAMRTime: Transform Learning Through Integration
Melanie Burford, Laura Bates, Tracy Bulot, Peggy Perret, McKinney ISD
(also Angela McNally and Christy Ferguson, McKinney ISD)
http://www.tceaconvention.org/2015/handouts/Session-150619.pdf
SAMR- Enhancement vs. Transformation
Substitution- Writing a story on the computer with word processing
Augmentation- same as above, but using Spell Check, formatting, etc.
Modification- using Google Docs instead of word processing, can share with the class and provide feedback
Redefinition- turning the stories into videos
More info about SAMR- Kathy Schrock http://www.schrockguide.net/samr.html & Jen Roberts- http://www.litandtech.com/2013/11/turning-samr-into-tech-what-models-are.html
