The Technology Integration Matrix (TIM) illustrates how teachers can use technology to enhance learning for K-12 students. The TIM incorporates five interdependent characteristics of meaningful learning environments: active, constructive, goal directed (i.e., reflective), authentic, and collaborative (Jonassen, Howland, Moore, & Marra, 2003). The TIM associates five levels of technology integration (i.e., entry, adoption, adaptation, infusion, and transformation) with each of the five characteristics of meaningful learning environments. Together, the five levels of technology integration and the five characteristics of meaningful learning environments create a matrix of 25 cells as illustrated below.

I really liked her article. Saved it for future reference!

This website was created to aid educators in finding valuable resources and information on new ways to integrate leading-edge technology into your school.  Additionally, this site focuses on a very important area in education: STEM content areas.  Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics are key components of our educational infrastructure.

This is a great app for taking notes on the iPad. Bonuses: It's FREE (used to cost $$$) + It integrates with Evernote (another great app that syncs across all devices)!

Needs Chrome, but nice integration with Google Drive
