Direct substitute. No functional change.• enhancement • example: Students sketch illustration ideas on a computer instead of using a pencil and paper. Type paper in MSWord instead of on paper.

• apps: calendar app, notepad app, list app, online dictionary, online photo

collage

Substitution: Same Task, New TechAt this stage, tech is directly substituted for a more traditional one. It is simple, bare-bones, direct replacement.• in this step, ask yourself what we stand to gain by replacing traditional tools with technology. some situations would be better served with pen and paper.• Activities do engage students and enhance learning, the level of tech integration is low.• Teachers are just substituting technology for things you do without technology.

Examples:

• substitute a web-based document for a hard copy of the same document • answer questions using MSWord instead or a worksheet.• might also include keynote, powerpoint, prezi, slides, or similar program to present information to the class • reading a book on an iPad. digital book for handheld book • taking notes or writing an essay in Word instead of using pen and paper.AugmentationTechnology is used to complete a task, and the function of the task is improved.Direct substitution. Some improvement • enhancement

• examples: Instant feedback on quiz taken in GoogleForms. Share document via

email instead of printing. Students collaborate with students in another class using video chat instead of being face-to-face.

• apps: audiobooks, evernote, sonicpics (add sound to photos), doodle buddy

(draw and share with others) Augmentation: Improve the Task with New Features Technology is directly substituted for a traditional one, but with significant enhancements to the student experience.• You ask yourself if the technology increases or augments a student's productivity and potential in some way.• enhance learning, but tasks do not change

Examples:

• augment a presentation with a video clip.• include interactive links in a presentation or document • Skitch or PicCollage are apps that augment learning by annotating images.• students can find objects in the classroom, take pictures, label their work • using a video camera app, students can practice fluency by recording themselves reading a passage and playing it back to check for fluency and expression.

Modification: Changing the TaskMove from enhancement to transformation. There is an actual change to the design of the lesson and its learning outcome. Redesign the learning experience.• Key question- does the technology significantly alter the task?• technology allows for significant task redesign. like collaborating in real-time using Google Drive. Students are motivated to write for their peers and engage with a global network.• to use technology to modify learning, we add multimedia through video, sound, and audio.• modification involves changing the task, and personalizing the project

Examples:

• student creates their own graphic organizer with the usual multimedia resources but represents a new product or synthesis of existing material.• group of students collaborate in a cloud-based workspace and solicit feedback from classmates • students create a soundtrack in Garageband for a multimedia presentation.• students use iMovie App to create iMovie Book trailers, or digital stories using Videolicious app.ModificationTechnology is used to complete a task that is significantly different from the original task. Significant task redesign. Technology has transformed the learning process to the point it looks different than a traditional classroom.• transformation

• examples: Students use an online mind mapping tool to take notes about a

period of time in history. Add comments and collaborate on Goggle Docs for immediate feedback.• apps: Google Earth, Notability (annotate research notes and share with others), Google Drive (share and add in real time), Lino (corkboard with photos, links, and video) RedefinitionTechnology is used to create a task that would not be possible without technology. New Tasks that were previously inconceivable.• transformation • examples: Lots of collaboration, discussions, and creating with technology in this part of the model. Students create videos about socially responsible topics and then post the videos on an online blog where people can discuss the content.Create an e-book with videos, photographs, and audio.

• apps: puppet pals, toontatstic and sock puppets (redefine student writing),

imovie, showme and voicethread (redefine student presentations)

Redefinition: A Whole New TaskThe pinnacle of how technology can transform a student's experience.• Ask yourself if the technology tools allow educators to redefine a traditional task in a way that would not be possible with the tech, creating a novel experience.

Examples:

• going beyond the 4 walls of the classroom through virtual book club discussions through hangouts, taking virtual field trips, or talking to experts through Google Connected Classrooms.• student develop mapping, critical thinking, and problem solving skills through Mystery Skypes, completing collaborative writing through Kidblog, and connecting to the world through social media like Twitter.• schools can use QR code and Augmented Reality to make annual art shows interactive.• Using a whiteboard app like Educreations, teacher can create activities such as an Array Hunt lesson and have students create videos to show their learning.• students using iBook Author or Storybook Maker to create their own digital books.Traditional vs. Technology-driven Classroom• In the traditional classroom, the teacher talks, and the students listen. The teacher is the primary source of knowledge in the traditional classroom.• In a technology-driven classroom, students direct learning with the help of technology. Students can gain knowledge and direct learning.Describe the digital divide.A larger-than-expected group of people do not have adequate devices or internet access. Many of those individuals are students. This lack of access greatly affects a student's ability to do homework, research, and complete work in general.• The term "digital divide" is often used to describe the idea of equity of access.• The digital divide impacts student engagement, motivation, and performance.• nicknamed the "homework gap" Describe how potential equity and access issues encountered when using technology for education in the classroom and at home impact student learning.• Nearly 1 in 5 teens can't always finish their homework because of the digital divide • geographical, income-based, and racial/ethnic disparities in technology access persist.• students rely on cell phones for internet • but teachers are assigning homework that requires broadband internet access • device access and internet access needs to be expanded to those who lack them.• applications needed for school should be accessible via mobile technology.What is a way that teachers can help students that are affected by the digital divide?Teachers can provide parents with information about low-cost internet access.By helping parents learn about the ways to access the internet at a low cost, teachers are helping to ensure their students have internet access at home.What is a reason for the digital divide?Students that come from lower-income families do not have adequate access to the internet. Income level is a major driver of the digital divide. Individuals with lower incomes cannot afford the luxury of internet access or devices. Lower- income Americans are less likely to have internet access and a reliable device.However, the number of lower-income Americans without internet access has decreased.
