This video gives a brief overview of the PICRAT model for effective technology integration. Building off of the RAT model created by Hughes, Thomas, & Scharber (2006), PICRAT guides teachers in asking two fundamental questions related to technology and teaching:
1. How is using the technology influencing my practice?
2. What are my students doing in or through the technology?
By answering these questions, teachers can consider more effective ways of using technology to support their students' learning.
