What is SAMR?
Why is it important?

Think about these


questions as you
watch the following
video.
Redefinition

SAMR
Tech allows for the creation of new tasks, previously
inconceivable without technology

Modification Transfo
Tech allows
activities for significant task redesign/new

Augmentation
Tech acts as a direct tool substitute, with added
efficiency

Enhancement Substitution
Tech acts as a direct tool substitute, with no
functional change
Where do the
following projects lie
on the SAMR Model?
Notability Demo
Practice with Notability
Open the document I
airdropped to you in
Notability.

As the video plays, use the


highlight function to notate
items you find important.

Use the handwriting or


sticky note function to
make notes.

Feel free to play around


with other functions.
Prepare Your Thoughts

You have one extra minute to


make highlights, notes, etc…
before we engage in discussions.
Literature Circles/Book
Clubs
In groups of 4, have a
5-minute discussion
about the video, using
the notes you took on
the transcript.
Refer to the next slide
for discussion ideas, if
you find yourself
lacking topics.

Taking It Further…
With a partner, design a lesson you can
implement NEXT WEEK using Notability.
Remember, students can create their own
“notes” on a topic you are teaching about…
or on a topic they’re reading about… or on
top of a PDF you’ve sent them or downloaded
from the web.
Together, make a SHORT (30-second MAX)
video explaining how you will use Notability.
You have 15 minutes.
