2. Foundation Framer - Nestling Public

Foundation Framer - Nestling

This microcredential focuses on the teacher as the central decision maker about the content they teach, how they teach, and the technologies they choose to use (or have their students use) to meet their learning goals and objectives. 

TPACK/SAMR Diagram

For this assignment you will be making visible the decision-making process teachers go through when considering technology integration. To do this

1. Use the following link to make a copy of Google drawing file of the TPACK diagram.

https://docs.google.com/drawings/d/1jhWBtsg7VopURXEZOXW6kuEDvKdz7ngI2dBz8Z20IMw/copy

2. Make a copy for your own use.

Domains of Knowledge:

1. Consider & identify the various contextual factors that impact your instructional context where learning and teaching occur.
   1. Factors within the classroom?
   2. Factors within the district?
   3. Factors at the state & national levels?
2. Within the larger section of the content domain, identify all of the component parts having to do with the content being taught.
   1. The content you plan to teach
   2. The instructional goals for students
   3. Standards you to be covered
3. Within the larger section of the pedagogy domain, identify all of the different ways the content you just identified could be taught (think about both teacher-centered & student centered approaches, ways you’ve seen, ways you’ve been taught, ways you’d like to teach the content).
4. Within the larger section of the technology domain, identify all of the possible technologies available for you to use within your instructional context (consider not only technologies within your classroom, but within the school, community, etc…)

Now, time for some decisions…

1. Content/Pedagogy knowledge domain overlap
   1. How will this lesson be taught?
      1. Select which pedagogical strategies do you plan to use to teach this content.
   2. Pedagogy/Technology knowledge domain overlap
      1. What kinds of technologies can support the various pedagogical strategies?
         1. Select which technologies you/students would use to support this pedagogical strategies.
      2. Content/Technology knowledge domain overlap
         1. Identify all of the technologies that could be used to learn about this content (Remember: you’re just thinking about content and technology here, not pedagogy).

Bring it all together

1. Within the center of the TPACK diagram, consider the PCK, PTK, & CTK domain overlaps and make your final decisions about the content, pedagogy, and technology used to teach this lesson.

SAMR Shift your focus to the SAMR box. Reflect back on the process you just went through in making decisions about your lesson.

1. Where would your lesson fit within the SAMR model?
2. Place a brief description of your lesson on the level of SAMR you’ve selected.

Revisit your completed TPACK diagram. Use the information you’ve already provided to rethink your lesson. What would your lesson look like if you designed it at the different levels of SAMR?

1. Write a brief description for your lesson at each level of SAMR.
   1. Provide information about how content will be taught & what kinds of technologies are used.
