TIP (Technology Integration Planning) Model M. D. Roblyer 1

TIP ( Technology Integration Planning ) Model  TIP model is created for teachers as a guide that ensures the efficiency of integrated technology about whether it meets the needs or not  Gives a general approach to addressing challenges involved in integrating technology into teaching practices. (Robyer, 2006, pg. 52) 2

Phase I: Determine relative advantage Phase II: Decide on objectives and assesments Phase III: Design Integration Strategies Phase IV: Prepare the Instructional Environment Phase V: Evaluate and Revise Integration Strategies TIP Model (Roblyer, 2006, pg. 53) 3

Phase I: Determine relative advantage Why Should I use a Technology-based Method?  You need to define the relative advantages of integrating technology in order to see the possible good solutions and new better ways work with this integration to give up your traditional routines.  Relative advantage: benefits of a new method over an old one 4

Learning ProblemTechnology Solution Relative Advantage Concepts are new, foreign (e.g., mathematics, physics principles). Graphics, tools, simulations, video- based problem scenarios Visual examples clarify concepts and applications Concepts are abstract, complex (e.g., physics principles, biology systems). Maths tools (Geometer’s SketchPad), simulations, problem-solving software, spreadsheet, exercises, graphin g calculators Graphics displays make abstract concepts more concrete; students can manipulate system to see how they work Example Technology Solutions with Potential for High Relative Advantage Resource 5

Phase II: Decide on objectives and assesments How will I know students have learned ?  You decide the objectives and assessment methods best suit with your technology integration.  General objectives:  İ mprove student behaviours : better achievement, on-task behaviours, improved attitudes  Improve teacher behaviours: Save time on a task  To assees students we can use:  Rubrics, scale type surveys or observations charts. 6

Phase III: Design Integration Strategies What teaching strategies and activities will work best?  You should consider the characteristics of the topic, the needs of students and the constraints of the classtroom environment  Decide the intructional method  Content: single or interdisciplinary  Grouping: individual, pair or groups 8

Phase IV: Prepare the Instructional Environment Are essential conditions in place to support technology integration?  You should prepare a healthy teaching environment that provides effective technology integration. 9

Essential Conditions for effective technology use 10  Adaquate hardware, software and media  Time to use resources  Special needs of students  Planning for technology use

Phase V: Evaluate and Revise Integration Strategies What worked well, what could be improved?  You should come up with a pros and cons list of the technology that you used in your lesson.  Technology Technology Impact Checklist 11
