SAMR Model Lesson Plan

The SAMR model provides a framework for evaluating how effectively technology is integrated into classroom learning. It outlines four levels of integration, progressing from basic to transformative. At the Substitution level, technology simply replaces traditional materials, like using a digital worksheet instead of a paper one. Augmentation adds features to existing activities, such as annotating a text online. Modification involves redesigning tasks around technology, like creating a student-made video instead of a written report. Finally, Redefinition leverages technology to create entirely new learning experiences, like using VR for a virtual field trip. By reflecting on the SAMR model, educators can ensure they are using technology to its full potential, not just as a flashy replacement, but as a tool to create engaging and transformative learning experiences.

Following is the example of SAMR model lesson plan:

Name: Leki Om class: VI duration: 45 minutes

Subject: social studies topic: social issues no. of students:30

Teaching learning materials: PowerPoint, pictures, textbook and digital tools.

Lesson objectives: by the end of the lesson, the student will be able to;

• identify at least two social issues with causes and impacts after the teacher's explanation.
• write at least one example for each issue based on their experiences after understanding the issues.
• 
  
• formulate more than one solution for each issue without the guidance from teacher and peers.

Introduction

• Ask some random questions to provoke their curiosity about the topic.

1. How would you feel if this happened to you or your friends or relatives or anyone you know?
2. Why do you think such issues keep rising in society?

• After getting students' views on the questions, tell them that they are going to learn about social issues particularly domestic violence and cyberbullying

General instruction:

• Tell students that they will be learning about social issues in more detail compared to what they learned when they were in class five.
• Share that they will do some group activity to explore more about social issues and then the teacher will explain each issue with causes and effects.

Lesson development

• Explain what social issues are to make them remember what they have learned in previous grade.

• Then introduce what domestic violence is and share the types of it.

• To make them understand better, show a video on it.
