The SAMR Model is a four-tiered framework created by Dr. Ruben Puentedura. The tiers include:
- Substitution
- Augmentation
- Modification
- Redefinition
These four levels will help you look at your current instructional strategy and help you find an appropriate technology equivalent.
Because of the need to move to an online or remote teaching format, there is an increased interest in using technology to increase engagement as well as accomplish tasks that were previously analog. The SAMR model provides a thoughtful approach to incorporating technology to enhance learning.
This week we are going to take a closer look at SAMR. Specifically, we will take a look at each tier and provide ideas for implementing this instructional technology model.
