"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."

"In order to reach the levels of all learners, educators need to carefully tailor their lessons to the needs of all the learners in their classroom.  This is referred to as UDL (Universal Design for Learning).  This video does a better job of explaining it... So as part of an assignment for grad school, and because I teach in a school that is 1:1 with iPads in grades 9-12, I thought I would give a list of 10 apps that aides in UDL instruction, particularly reading comprehension for our current book, The Odyssey.

" Most educators are more familiar with Bloom's Taxonomy than with Webb's Depth of Knowledge. Blooms Taxonomy In 1965 Benjamin Bloom identified three types of learning: cognative (mental skills/knowledge), affective (emotional/attitudes) , and psychomotor (manual/physical skills) Within the cognative area, there are six progressive categories in the development of intellectual skills. Each step must be mastered before the next can occur. (Note the levels listed below do not reflect the 1990's revision of the taxonomy)"
