I have always claimed that I know just enough to be "dangerous" with a lot of things! I don't have a lot of fear when it comes to technology so I dive into any new gadget and into any new app. The problem with this is that I know a little about a lot of things, but I am not an expert at hardly anything techy!
That is my goal....to become really good at some apps, programs, devices that will enhance school counseling. By accomplishing this lofty goal, everything positive for students will be impacted. I hope to share this new expertise with other Nebraska School Counselors at the NSCA Academy in October so I had better hurry!
After attending the ASCA Conference in Minneapolis, I came home with numerous ideas on how to improve my school counseling program. I met great new friends.....Michelle Kelley @mkelley723 and her husband, Principal Dan Kelley @dpk933. They are great examples of highly qualified educators from Rhode Island. I learned a lot of little things at the Web 2.0 and Technology Smackdown presented by Russell Sabella, Andrea Burston, Erin Mason, Danielle Schultz, and Julia Taylor. I became quite dangerous with all of the things that I learned....now I need to turn that into expertise!
