The goal of this exercise was to help me (and readers) better understand the
SAMR model, and to really see how lessons and assessments can be
transformed while considering the benefits of evolving them through these
stages. I find it particularly interesting to see the vast difference in between
the original lesson and the redefined lesson … there is often a much wider
range of skills required in the latter stages, and lessons can become much
more engaging and collaborative when modified or redefined.
An Assessment Exercise
Idea taken from: https://sites.google.com/a/msad60.org/technology-is-
learning/samr-model and slightly modified. In this example, we take a
simple form of assessment and evolve it into a collaborative group project.
Lesson: Art/Painting
Original Assignment: Drawing a picture using traditional brush, paint,
paper. Of course, there is a a big difference between doing this “by hand” in
the traditional manner and doing it digitally – digitally is by no means
“better”, it is just different and opens up some interesting possibilities.
