Q1: How did you learn about the SAMR model and what role does it play in your school or district? #LItechchat

librarian_dcav - Moderator Mar 16 @ 7:10 PM EDT

A1: I learned about #SAMR through the Educational Computing program at @stonybrooku #litechchat

In reply to @stonybrooku

librarian_dcav - Moderator Mar 16 @ 7:12 PM EDT

A1: Currently we are organically working on moving through the model. PD's, staff training, small cohorts, etc. #litechchat

DoloFrost Mar 16 @ 7:12 PM EDT

A1: I don't really know much about the SAMR model, I only have seen Twitter posts about it #LItechchat

Edtechie13 - Moderator Mar 16 @ 7:15 PM EDT

that's similar to how I found out about it! I love this video that explains it https://t.co/1IaIG8zzsC #litechchat

In reply to @DoloFrost

librarian_dcav - Moderator Mar 16 @ 7:16 PM EDT

it's a model of Substitution, Augmentation, Modification, and Reinvention, while using tech in education. #litechchat

I'm visual, too! I like to see, and hear my info! #litechchat

In reply to @DoloFrost, @Edtechie13

Edtechie13 - Moderator Mar 16 @ 7:21 PM EDT

the best way to find out abt these current trends is on Twitter & there are so many resources out there to explain! #litechchat

In reply to @DoloFrost

Edtechie13 - Moderator Mar 16 @ 7:23 PM EDT

A2: G Suite, netbooks, remind, @socrative, Castle Learning, VDI, we are lucky to have so many to list! #litechchat

In reply to @Socrative

DoloFrost Mar 16 @ 7:23 PM EDT

A2: Our 3rd graders have a 1 to 1 iPads. We have a few laptop carts available to all, & computers in every class. #LItechchat

librarian_dcav - Moderator Mar 16 @ 7:24 PM EDT

That's great! Our middle schools are going 1:1 next year and we are excited about it! #litechchat

In reply to @DoloFrost

Edtechie13 - Moderator Mar 16 @ 7:25 PM EDT

do they like using the iPads? I feel like that opens up a lot of possibilities for the teachers! #litechchat

In reply to @DoloFrost

KPantEDU Mar 16 @ 7:25 PM EDT

A2: Chromebooks, Castle Leran, GSuite primarily, EdPuzzle, and other means for flipping classrooms. Not twitter -its blocked. #LItechchat

librarian_dcav - Moderator Mar 16 @ 7:26 PM EDT

that's a shame that Twitter is blocked. Maybe speaking to As abt the benefits of twitter would fix that! #litechchat

In reply to @KPantEDU

Edtechie13 - Moderator Mar 16 @ 7:26 PM EDT

the chats are great for this! I feel so energized after I participate & am eager to get back to school the next day! #LItechchat

In reply to @DoloFrost

I often flip my lessons. I like screencast-o-matic for mine, and I add them to @edpuzzle #litechchat

In reply to @KPantEDU, @EDpuzzle

Edtechie13 - Moderator Mar 16 @ 7:28 PM EDT

In reply to @Edtechie13, @EDpuzzle

Edtechie13 - Moderator Mar 16 @ 7:29 PM EDT

A3: getting people onboard with tech as a tool TOWARDS engagement, not just a tool for the tool's sake #litechchat

KPantEDU Mar 16 @ 7:33 PM EDT

A3: I think the hardest part is twofold: 1)getting buy in 2)There is only one "Me" in my district. #LItechchat

Edtechie13 - Moderator Mar 16 @ 7:33 PM EDT

thats a great way to use them! I love the instant feedback of @Socrative. @librarian_dcav u should try this #litechchat

In reply to @DoloFrost, @factcite, @Socrative, @librarian_dcav

KPantEDU Mar 16 @ 7:34 PM EDT

AGREED! #LItechchat "I want to use google presentation" Ok..cool...for what and why? :)

In reply to @librarian_dcav

librarian_dcav - Moderator Mar 16 @ 7:34 PM EDT

Exactly! I still have people struggling with opening Word documents! And Ts who still want brochures! #litechchat

In reply to @KPantEDU, @librarian_dcav

Edtechie13 - Moderator Mar 16 @ 7:35 PM EDT

In reply to @KPantEDU

KPantEDU Mar 16 @ 7:35 PM EDT

Did you look at my calendar for tomorrow. I'm literally helping folks with BOTH of those. :) hehe #LItechchat

In reply to @librarian_dcav

DoloFrost Mar 16 @ 7:36 PM EDT

A3: For me it's taking the leap of faith & time. Technology is awesome...when it works & my classes are only a 50min period. #LItechchat

librarian_dcav - Moderator Mar 16 @ 7:37 PM EDT

wow! And you're the TECH spec. Maybe you can nudge them with a new idea! Substitution is the 1st step! #litechchat

In reply to @KPantEDU, @librarian_dcav

Edtechie13 - Moderator Mar 16 @ 7:37 PM EDT

Question 4 coming up in one minute... #litechchat

In reply to @DoloFrost

KPantEDU Mar 16 @ 7:38 PM EDT

I am gradually working towards digitizing them into gSuite! :) That's my goal! :) haha #LItechchat

In reply to @librarian_dcav

KPantEDU Mar 16 @ 7:39 PM EDT

That's true....50 minutes is TOUGH if it "breaks". Keep on keepin' on! :) #LItechchat

In reply to @DoloFrost

librarian_dcav - Moderator Mar 16 @ 7:39 PM EDT

once they see the benefits, they'll love it! #litechchat

In reply to @KPantEDU

Edtechie13 - Moderator Mar 16 @ 7:39 PM EDT

slow and steady getting to substitution is the first step! #litechchat

In reply to @KPantEDU, @librarian_dcav

librarian_dcav - Moderator Mar 16 @ 7:40 PM EDT

Q4: What resources have you found useful as you’ve worked to move from Substitution towards Redefinition? #LItechchat

Edtechie13 - Moderator Mar 16 @ 7:42 PM EDT

In reply to @GoogleForEdu

KPantEDU Mar 16 @ 7:44 PM EDT

A4: I have been trying to get a stakeholder in each of the 9Builds in GClassr then having them push their friends. #LItechchat

librarian_dcav - Moderator Mar 16 @ 7:45 PM EDT

that's the best way. Organically! Plant them and they will grow! #litechchat

In reply to @KPantEDU

KPantEDU Mar 16 @ 7:45 PM EDT

A4: once one person sees its awesomeness, they get others in. Then I can move into more exciting tools. #LItechchat
