Modification requires the task to be completely changed by technology and the tool used allows for collaboration (Huynh, 2021). Modification encourages collaboration between students using technology as a platform. Teachers utilizing their learning management system to assign work, “take up” work, grade assignments, and provide feedback for growth is considered to be the Modification level of technology integration in the SAMR model (EdTech Classroom, 2021). In this approach to technology integration, teachers create interactive and dynamic tasks that students access, learn, and share their learning in ways they choose. The student output is far greater than simple paper pencil tasks and demonstrates deeper degrees of learning (Best, 2020).

Examples of Modification activities include Science teachers using interactive technology to show simulations of experiments that students can manipulate and change to see different reactions to variables (Hamilton et al., 2016). A further example would be using a group Google doc for students to collaboratively share their learning about a class lesson (Huynh, 2021). Students can write, record, edit, and produce podcasts about their learning that can then be used by other students in their studies. Students can create videos that provide instruction and reflections on learning, leading to more connections and authentic assessments (Best, 2020).
