The Technology Integration Matrix (for K-12)
Posted by Marie-Therese on August 29, 2009
The Technology Integration Matrix (TIM) shows how technology can enhance learning for K-12 students.
There are
• five characteristics of meaningful learning environments [active, constructive, goal directed (i.e., reflective), authentic, and collaborative (Jonassen, Howland, Moore, & Marra, 2003)], and
• five levels of technology integration [entry, adoption, adaptation, infusion, and transformation].
The five levels of technology integration and the five characteristics of meaningful learning environments form a matrix of 25 cells. Each cell has a short illustrating video, using examples from K-12 education.
Would a matrix for Higher education be different or mostly the same?
