Read the first 7 Technology Integration in Education flashcards as text

  1. Which approach BEST describes blended learning in a STEM classroom?

    Answer: Combining online digital instruction with in-person classroom activities

    Blended learning intentionally combines online digital learning with traditional face-to-face instruction to create a flexible, personalized learning experience.

  2. A teacher wants to use technology to promote higher-order thinking in engineering. Which activity BEST exemplifies Bloom's 'Create' level using digital tools?

    Answer: Using CAD software to design and present an original bridge solution

    Designing an original solution using CAD software requires students to synthesize knowledge and produce something new, aligning with Bloom's 'Create' level.

  3. When a STEM teacher uses Google Classroom to post the same worksheet that was previously handed out on paper, which SAMR level does this represent?

    Answer: Substitution

    Substitution occurs when technology directly replaces a traditional tool with no functional change, such as replacing a paper worksheet with an identical digital version.

  4. A STEM teacher wants to assess student understanding of the engineering design process using peer feedback. Which technology tool BEST facilitates structured digital peer review?

    Answer: Turnitin peer review feature or Google Classroom peer review

    Turnitin and Google Classroom's peer review features allow students to give and receive structured, criteria-based feedback on each other's work digitally.

  5. Which of the following is an example of using technology to support STEM inquiry through citizen science?

    Answer: Students submit real bird sighting data to the eBird database for scientific research

    Citizen science platforms like eBird engage students in authentic scientific inquiry by contributing real data to ongoing research projects.

  6. A district is evaluating whether to adopt a new STEM learning platform. Which evaluation framework is MOST appropriate for assessing its potential instructional impact?

    Answer: Both SAMR and TPACK together

    Using SAMR to assess transformation potential and TPACK to ensure teacher knowledge alignment together provides a comprehensive evaluation of instructional impact.

  7. A STEM teacher notices that screen time during technology integration is increasing student fatigue. What is the BEST instructional adjustment?

    Answer: Alternate between technology-based and hands-on, offline STEM activities

    Balancing screen-based digital activities with hands-on, offline STEM tasks reduces fatigue while maintaining the benefits of both modalities.
