At the Substitution level of SAMR, I decided to have the teacher use a direct lecture with PowerPoint.  I also had the students type a response and submit it online after the lecture.  In the next level of SAMR, Augmentation, this is where I decided to put my lesson.  This would be a teacher-centered PowerPoint lecture.  Then after the lecture, the students would give a written response on a discussion board post, discussing what the teacher taught.  
The lesson associated with the Modification level of the SAMR is a collaborative Google Docs where the students are at the center.  The students have to come up and discuss amongst themselves in groups and write a response to the lecture that will then be submitted.  The most student-centered activity is in the Redefinition level of SAMR.  For this lesson, the students themselves create a video about the electoral college and then will post it onto the class website so that viewers of the website can learn about the electoral college.
