SubstitutionIn a substitution level, teachers or students are only using new technology tools to replace old ones, for instance, using Google Docs to replace Microsoft Word. the task ( writing) is the same but the tools are different.AugmentationThough it is a different level, but we are still in the substitution mentality but this time with added functionalities. Again using the example of Google docs, instead of only writing a document and having to manually save it and share it with others, Google Docs provides extra services like auto saving, auto syncing, and auto sharing in the cloud.

ModificationThis is the level where technology is being used more effectively not to do the same task using different tools but to redesign new parts of the task and transform students learning. An example of this is using the commenting service in Google Docs, for instance, to collaborate and share feedback on a given task task.RedefinitionIf you are to place this level in Blooms revised taxonomy pyramid, it would probably correspond to synthesis and evaluation as being the highest order thinking skills. Redefinition means that students use technology to create imperceptibly new tasks. As is shown in the video below an example of redefinition is "when students connect to a classroom across the world where they would each write a narrative of the same historical event using the chat and comment section to discuss the differences, and they use the voice comments to discuss the differences they noticed and then embed this in the class website".

PEOPLE • OBJECTIVES • STRATEGY • TOOL POST MODEL
How comfortable are you with technology? What do you need/want to learn? • What are the technology skills of your learners? • (see next slide for definitions from • What access do they have to technology – mobile devices? Internet access? People (student and teacher)
What is the objective? For you: what is the need? I want to be able to… For students: start with a lesson or unit objective. Students will be able to…. Objective: Think of the End Result
Some strategies to help reach your objective: • Increase engagement? • Augment performance? • Teach new skills? • Organize information – you, students, both? Strategy: How will you reach your objective?
Think of Universal Design: the presentation of materials in a variety of modalities and formats to match students’ learning strengths. visual audio musical spatial Increase engagement: how?
We know learners need lots of practice and revision? The questions are: What and How? Augment PerformanceAugment the Task
Students in the labor force need digital literacy skills in almost every job. Talk to students about the skills they need and want. What 21st century skills do they need?
Is there a more effective way for you and/or your learners to organize what they learn, how they learn? Organize information
One way to categorize tools and give you food for thought • communication tools • collaborative writing tools • productivity tools • online working tools • 1:1 and mobile learning tools • Other? What tools best support your objective?

I have created a template that merges the key elements of both the POST and SAMR models to help guide your planning. • Use this document to start thinking and planning or any format you prefer. Now the work begins
