Abstract
We provide an analysis of the Substitution Augmentation Modification Redefinition (SAMR) model for instructional design and technology integration. Despite its growing popularity among some teachers, administrators, and professional development providers, this technocentric model’s validity and applicability is narrow and problematic. We address the SAMR model’s inattention to context, emphasis on products over processes, and rigid, hierarchical structure. This analysis provides a basis for future research into flexible and usable frameworks for teaching with technology.
