In preparation for #HMIchat this Wed 9 PM with @drlizaola "Transforming our Teaching for the Digital Age" here are a few concepts to brush up on:
- #TPACK
- #SAMR
- #RAT
How do these relate to
- #BloomsTaxonomy
- #Dewey
- #KolbsExperientialLearning?

#TPACK is a model 4 educators 2 integrate Content, Pedagogy and Technology Knowledge to enhance learning
tpack.org.
Misra & Kohler eric.ed.gov/?id=EJ737321 Extended Lee Shulman's framework of Pedagogical Concept Knowledge (amazon.com/Wisdom-Practic…)

Educators need 2 know:
a) content matter -> concepts most difficult 2 grasp & durable frameworks
b) principles of how students learn and how best to teach so learners get those concepts and build those frameworks
c) how best to leverage tech to enhance b)
#TPACK
3/n...#HMIchat

Before embarking on designing a lesson/course, educators need 2 know
- what learners already know/understand
- what they should know/understand by the end of lesson/course
- identify specific learning objectives - use #BloomsTaxonomy

There are 4 Knowledge Dimensions:
- Factual
- Conceptual
- Procedural
- Metacognition
For each dimension, there is a different level e.g. remember vs. create (Sometimes referred to as "lower" vs. "higher" levels of #BloomsTaxonomy)
Hold that thought

So where does Technology fit into all this?
#SAMR is one model by Ruben Puentedura

Are you just replacing what you do on paper with technology OR are you using tech to transform learning in a way that cannot be done with traditional tools?
5/n... #HMIchat

#SAMR can be aligned with #BloomsTaxonomy
commonsense.org/education/arti…

To get to the transformative stages of SAMR, to use tech to get to the "highest" levels of #BloomsTaxonomy you need all 3 parts of #TPACK.

Another model for tech to transform learning is the #RAT model by Joan Hughes (techedges.org/about-me/) techedges.org/wp-content/upl…

What about Kolb & Dewey?
Dewey encouraged "learning by doing & reflecting on the experience". David Kolb described the 4 stage learning cycle
simplypsychology.org/learning-kolb.…
How does this correlate with "levels of Bloom" & 4 knowledge dimensions?
8/n... #HMIchat

Looking 4ward 2 discussion on starting Wed 9:00 PM EST.
In preparation think about your last #EdTech Project for #meded. Which knowledge dimension & level of Bloom's did you aim 4? Did you get 2 the T of RAT or the R of SAMR? Did you use all of TPACK?
