Dr. Ruben Puentedura’s SAMR model offers a lens for examining how technology is adopted in a classroom. As you strive to incorporate online tools into your classroom, we encourage you to use this model as an analytic tool.
Here is an example of how Canva might fit within the SAMR model:
Original assignment: Learning about air pollution
Far too often, technology is used as a direct substitute for other low-tech tools (e.g., pencil and paper). While substitution has some benefits (e.g., students develop their technology skills and knowledge), we encourage you to think about how you might use Canva to modify or redefine learning.
In Canva, have your students use infographic templates and create infographics about animals.
Encourage students to design climate change posters to raise public awareness about an important environmental issue.
Have students use the “Infographic timeline” template to visually map a specific time in history.
Have students open Canva Photo Editor and upload and edit any photo that they want. This way teacher assists students in unearthing students unique creativity. See an example of it below.
