The two technological frameworks that I chose to look into for a further understanding of wise integration of technology were the RAT framework and the Triple E framework. The RAT framework stands for Replacement, Amplification, and Transformation. The Replacement step refers to replacing a form of instruction that is not currently using technology. Amplification refers to the idea that if a form of technology is being used, then the technology must amplify the learning ability for students.

Pear Deck is an instructional tool that allows the instructor to give a lecture in a digital
