Technology Integration Matrix

  • 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).

    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.
