How does the SMAR model apply directly to the Foundations of Learning Course?

FOUNDATIONS OF LEARNING

Is a previously inconceivable task able to be achieved with the technology?

REDEFINITION

Does the technology allow for significant changes to the task?

MODIFICATION

How does new technolgy improve the task?

AUGMENTATION

Does the technology act as a direct substitution for the task?

SUBSTITUTION

The SAMR model has four stages (Substitution, Augmentation, Modification, and Redefinition) showing how technology impacts teaching. Rather than a step-by-step process, it's a versatile guide for teaching methods. This change means teachers become guides in student-centered learning, empowering students to be more active. By embracing its adaptability and social context, the model highlights the educational goals in collaborative learning involving teachers, students, and the subject matter (Bicalho et al., 2022).

SAMR MODEL

REDEFINITION

Redefinition is a part of the Transformation segment of the SAMR model. At the Redefinition phase, technology completely transforms teaching by enabling entirely new tasks and strategies that weren't possible before, where students create original tasks inspired by their teacher's instructions.Examples of Redefinition:Students may utilize different technologies to elevate learning experiences by transforming tasks into new and innovative learning opportunities that were previously inconceivable without technology.

• Utilizing Virtual Reality (VR) allows students to explore complex concepts, historical events, or scientific phenomena in immersive, interactive environments (ie: Anatomyou VR)
• Engaging in Online Global Collaborations provides opportunities for students to collaborate with peers worldwide, exchanging cultural experiences, conducting joint projects, and learning together in real-time across different time zones (ie: PenPal Schools)
• Creating Collaborative Online Problem-Based Learning enables students to collaboratively work on real-world problems, applying critical thinking, and apply research as a team to find innovative solutions (ie: PBLWorks)

SUBSTITUTION

Substitution is a part of the Enhancement segment of the SAMR model. Substitution involves replacing analog with digital technology without changing teaching practices. Examples of Substitution:

• Students can use Zoom to substitute in-person learning by attending synchronous online classes.
• Jam Board sticky notes can replace writing on paper or the chalkboard.
• Students can use email to hand in assignments rather than physically handing them into the teacher.

AUGMENTATION

Augmentation is a part of the Enhancement segment of the SAMR model. Augmentation adds improvements without significant practice changes, enhancing learning experiences. Examples of Augmentation:

• Students could use websites as a source of updated content to assist in research to complete assignments.
• Students could use Canvas or other collaborative platforms to engage in online discussions.
• Educators could use Canvas to support multiple ways of learning by personalizing their teaching for individual students.

MODIFICATION

Modification is a part of the Transformation segment of the SAMR model. At the Modification phase, technology is utilized to expand learning beyond the capabilities of a standard classroom. This phase encourages participation, emphasizes collaborative abilities, and ensures accessibility for various learners.Examples of Modification:Students may utilize different technologies to overcome the limitations of a standard classroom, allowing significant task modifications. Some examples include;

• Creating Video Presentations - Pre-recorded video presentations break down the barriers of traditional oral presentations, allowing students to feel more confident in sharing information, with the assistance of visually appealing and accessible software.
• Engaging with Zoom chat features - Online chat supports students' contributions to class discussions throughout lessons by allowing students to participate in an alternative way. Rather than sharing ideas in a potentially disruptive way, students can comment their thoughts on the side, where they can be addressed at an appropriate time.
• Utilizing Google Docs - Creating shared documents allows students to collaborate on a project, while simultaneously contributing to one document, and providing feedback to one another using the comments feature provided.
