Tech Days

Presenting. Goodbye SAMR, Hello RATL! | IGNITEducation. In the realm of technology integration models, it appears that SAMR is king. While being the most widely recognized model, SAMR is not the only one out there. It is easy for a tech integrationist to ride the SAMR train to seem in touch with the pulse of the ed tech world. But is SAMR really the best model for you and your district? The concept of SAMR is difficult to argue; push teachers to use technology in transformative ways in their classroom. I understand that Puenteduras’ goal was for every teacher to push toward re-definitive technology integration. One four point model has been proven in countless studies to be effective in the classroom. Take note that the TARGET resides at level three, giving room for the student to excel.

It is because of these flaws that I lean toward the RAT model proposed by Dr. So what about that great 4 point Marzano rubric? So, who out there is ready to RATL up their tech integration? EducationHQ - High Possibility Classrooms: a new model for technology integration in schools. What do 'exemplary' teachers focus on when they integrate technology in the classroom? Are there particular aspects of their practices that all teachers could learn from? These were just two of the questions that sparked my curiosity in undertaking new research in some Australian classrooms. The research developed a model for technology integration known as "High Possibility Classrooms" or HPC and is being carefully considered by school leaders, teachers and teacher educators in a variety of education settings. Let's find out what it involves. Research drawn from a group of exemplary teachers’ knowledge of technology integration shines a light on what classrooms should look like right now and into the future in primary and secondary schools in Australia (Hunter, 2013).

Teachers in the ethnographic study had to satisfy a set of ‘purposive criteria’ to participate and they taught students in Stages 1-5 or 6-16 year olds in NSW public schools. Figure 2 Figure 3 Figure 4 References. Project 24 / Homepage.
