SAMR Model for Suno AI (Generative AI Tool in Learning)
Substitution:
Suno AI can be used as a simple replacement for traditional music creation tools. Instead of writing music or searching for a song online, students can describe the type of song they want using specific words or ideas, and Suno AI will generate the music for them. The task of making music stays the same, but it’s done more easily and quickly.
Example: A student could describe a relaxing, calm song for a meditation video, and Suno AI would generate the music based on those keywords, saving time on searching for or composing the track themselves.
Augmentation:
At this level, Suno AI enhances the process by allowing students to adjust and fine-tune their music in real-time based on their description. The ability to describe specific moods, genres, or instruments and hear the result instantly helps students experiment more with their creative ideas.
Example: A student could input different words, like “upbeat” or “jazzy,” to generate a variety of songs and explore how different styles affect their project’s tone, adjusting the description until it fits perfectly.
Modification:
Suno AI changes the way students create music by allowing them to fully customize the sound based on detailed descriptions. This gives them control over the music’s feel without needing advanced composition skills, transforming the way they approach the task.
Example: In a film studies class, students can use Suno AI to create unique background scores that match the themes of their films, experimenting with different moods or soundscapes based on the specific atmosphere they want to convey.
Redefinition:
At this level, Suno AI allows students to create music in ways that weren’t possible before. By simply describing what they want, they can produce high-quality, personalized music in minutes, and even collaborate remotely with others, combining music with other media like video, art, or storytelling.
Example: Students from different schools could work together on a multimedia project, describing and generating soundtracks in real-time to match their creative vision, creating an entirely new learning experience.
Reflection:
Suno AI was really interesting to use because it makes music creation so simple. All I had to do was describe the kind of song I wanted, like “calm and peaceful,” and it generated a track that matched my description almost perfectly. This makes it really accessible for people who might not know how to compose music traditionally.
However, I did notice that while Suno AI can make good music, it sometimes feels a bit too generic compared to something made by a human producer with a deeper personal touch.
Ethically, I’m a bit concerned that tools like this could lead to too much generic music being created, similar to how AI-generated art is spreading. But for students or people working on quick projects, I think Suno AI is a great tool to help them bring their ideas to life without needing advanced skills.
In the next few years, I believe AI-generated music will either improve a lot and be used everywhere, or people will start to notice its limitations and turn back to human-made music for more unique experiences.

Great work! Surprisingly I felt the music was quite good. This does feed onto the point you made about how “Ethically, I’m a bit concerned that tools like this could lead to too much generic music being created, similar to how AI-generated art is spreading. “. Going by my feelings on it, you described it quite well with the music being quite generic but also enjoyable enough that it could overproliferate like AI art.
Also, as of now, I don’t see any citation for the SAMR framework information generated above. But overall, wonderful work.
Wow, the music is actually pretty good! I like how you pointed out the fun of experimenting with sounds but also how there is a risk of the music feeling generic. However, it’s exciting to think about how tools like this could change the way we create, if done right! Interesting blog post, great job!
