Welcome to //Tech Savvy School Counselor // //!//

Perhaps you agree with Plato who wrote that //Necessity is the mother of invention//. Well that is how I feel as a school counselor when trying to meet the emotional and educational needs of my students. Fortunately, computer technology enables all of us to save time in completing our clerical responsibilities.

This webpage is full of examples of how you can integrate technology into your work through the use of //**Word**// and //**Wikispace**//. Please use the links to the left to navigate the different examples of technology in action. If you would like to review the wikipage from which all of these examples come from, please click on this link to [|http://guidancenewsthatyoucanuse.wikispaces.com].

If you want to purchase a copy of //**Windows 2013**// **//,//**  qualifying educators can purchase a copy at a substantial savings through [|www.JourneyEd.com/SELECT]. Another option for anyone currently enrolled in graduate coursework is to contact the book store manager of your college or university to inquire about educator discounts.

One of the best features of //**Wikispaces**//is that it is //**Free**//to educators. To view a short, informative, and entertaining clip about how Wikis work click on [|http://www.commoncraft.com/video/wikis]and watch //**Wikis in Plain English**////.// To learn more about the creative features of a Wiki and how to create your own click on [|http://www.wikispaces.com/content/teacher].

Best wishes,
