We were to use Ruben R. Puentedura's SAMR Model as a guide to integrating technology into our lesson plans. The SAMR has four levels of integration: redefinition, modification, augmentation, and substitution. This is shown in the image below:

As I made recommendations to the lesson plan, I tried to imagine the SAMR model. The original lesson used technology at the augmentation and madification level. The students did not have access to enough computers and were forced to shared technology. They were also creating presentations using only one type of presentation.
When I added changes to the lesson, added new ideas to bring the lesson to the Modification level. The students would be using Khan Academy and MathPlay to practice using integers. From this students would create presentations explaining the properties of integers using a multitude of ways such as: Animoto, Prezi, Schooltube, and Google Presentations. This gave the students options to create presentation is a way that was comfortable for them.
As I went through my lesson and others, it was interesting to see that myself and another math teacher had worked on the same lesson without realizing. We were able to make comments and recommendations to each other. We also had worked on these lessons differently. While I re-created a new lesson, she had annotated the previous lesson with recommendations. It was interesting to se various ways of re-creating the same lesson. With the help of other classmates, yo can really gain a sense of how to incorporate technology changes into lessons
