In SAMR, 4 functions used to develop the applications, as in Substitution, Augmentation, Modification and Redefenition. This model helps educators provide an overview on the implementation of English language learning (i.e. reading, writing and listening). The simple SAMR model is certainly reminiscent of a model that was first in the realm of cognitive education. This model is parallel with the model of the taxonomy of bloom, a model that is very often used in cognitive learning. By applying SAMR Model, students can design learning technology effectively.
