Reflection 10

Hello everyone,

This week topic is about SAMR Model which designed to help educators infuse technology into teaching and learning.

Miss Farah thought us what SAMR stands for during our lesson period which is:

A)    S is for Substitution where technology acts as a tool substitute, without functional changes

B)    A is for Augmentation where technology acts as direct tool substitute with functional improvement

C)    M is for Modification where technology allows for significant task redesign

D)    R is for Redefinition where technology allows for the creation of new tasks

Then Miss Farah asked one of my classmate to explain the SAMR Model in her understanding. She gave an example using the coffee drink which,

Substitution + Augmentation = Enhancement

Modification + Redefinition = Transformation 

Thus, using educational field, SAMR Model stands for:

A)    Substitution – Students print out worksheet of essay, finished it and pass it in

B)    Augmentation – Students answer essay from Google or any other tools instead of using solid items

C)    Modification – Essay question is made along with musical track or animation

D)    Redefinition – Students are assigned to create a documentary based on current situation

Miss Farah also explained about the difference between Bloom Taxonomy and SAMR Model. The picture below explained about the Bloom Taxonomy and SAMR Model.

This was what Miss Farah thought us the class. I tried my level best to summaries it and make it as short points.

Well that’s all on what we learned this week and I hope that all my point bring benefit to the readers.

Thank you ^_^
