ICT Integration Model_ SAMR MODEL 😊

The SAMR model, developed by Dr. Ruben Puentedura, is a framework for understanding how technology can be integrated into teaching and learning practices. It categorizes the levels of technology integration into four stages:

1. Substitution: Technology is used as a direct substitute for a traditional tool without any significant change in the task. For example, typing an essay instead of handwriting it.

2.  Augmentation: Technology is used to enhance the task with added functionalities, but the task itself remains fundamentally the same. An example would be using spell-check or grammar-check features in a word processor.

3. Modification: Technology allows for significant redesign of tasks, providing opportunities for more meaningful learning experiences. This involves using technology to do things that were previously impossible or impractical. For instance, collaborating on a document in real-time with peers from different locations using cloud-based tools.

4. Redefinition: Technology enables the creation of new tasks that were previously inconceivable, fostering transformative learning experiences. This involves leveraging technology to fundamentally change the nature of the task, leading to higher levels of engagement and deeper understanding. An example could be students using virtual reality simulations to explore historical events or scientific concepts.

🌸Reflection 🌸

From the class  while learning about ICT Integration, I came to know that the SAMR model encourages educators to progress from using technology simply as a substitute for traditional methods to leveraging its full potential to redefine and transform teaching and learning experiences.

Integration of  SAMR in primary education 

• Substitution: Using technology as a direct substitute for traditional tools/tasks.
• Augmentation: Enhancing traditional tasks with added technological functionalities.
• Modification: Redesigning tasks significantly with technology.
• Redefinition: Creating new tasks that were previously impossible without technology

👉Design the learning activity for primary children with 2 levels of SAMR model integration

Lesson 1:

Teacher name : Sangay Choden  

Subject: Social Studies

Topic: Rotation of the Earth 

Class: 4

Time: 45 mins

Teaching Learning activities: 

• 

  Email 

• 

  Power-point

•

ICT model: SAMR MODEL (Used 2 levels:  Substitution and Augmentation )

Previous knowledge: The students are already aware of the fact that they experience days and nights.

Lesson Objectives:

By the end of the lesson, the students will be able to:

a) Make good PowerPoint slides on the rotation of the sun correctly after the teacher's explanation;

      b)  describe the rotation of the earth precisely after watching the video tutorial;

      c)  appreciate the wonders of celestial phenomena effectively after the lesson.

Lesson Introduction(5 mins) :

Begin the lesson by showing them a video of day changing to night and ask students what is the cause of such changes.

introduce the concept of what is rotation in the classroom by using PowerPoint slides.

Lesson Development(35 mins) :

Information Input

• Explain the cause of days and nights due to the rotation of the sun.

• Show them a video on the effect of rotation of the sun which leads to days and nights.

• Explain to them that different regions experience days and nights at different times because of the rotation of the Earth.

• Explain to them that the region which faces the sun - Days

• Explain to them that the region which faces away from the sun - Night

• After this let the students do the following activities.

Activity 1( 10 mins)  

• For this, provide the group with a laptop if not the students can visit the ICT Lab) 

Open a Mentimeter where the students in their group will have to share their views on the rotation of the earth.

• Students should also answer the questions mentioned in the Mentimeter.

Activity 2 ( 20 mins) 

•  The students in 3 groups should prepare a ppt slides on the rotation of the earth.

( For this, provide the group with a laptop if not the students can visit the ICT Lab) 

1st group: The introduction to the rotation of the earth

2nd group: The effect of rotation of Earth

3rd group: The importance of the rotation of Earth

Follow-up Activities (5 mins) 

• After the students are done with PPT slides they should send them to the teacher’s mail 

Mail ID: Chodens2003@gmail.com.

• The students should write their understanding in their notebooks and can also share their Google Classroom for discussion if they have any doubts. (Meanwhile, the teacher assesses their PowerPoint slides) 

Lesson Closure (5 mins): 

• At the end of the class the teacher will ask some questions based on their ppt slides and the group members will have to answer.

• Later the teacher will post each ppt slide from each group in the Google Classroom.

• Later both teacher and students can have a discussion in Google Classroom💙💙THANK YOU 💙💙
