Favorite Counselor Websites/Tech Tools
I am often asked by other school counselors for my favorite, must have websites and tech tools, so here's my "must have" list. Click on the links to access the direct web pages. *I will update this list regularly.
-Dropbox- Online storage, just think a flash drive without the small flash! Documents, pictures, video and music can be stored and shared online with others.
-Evernote- Online note taking at it's best! Take notes from websites, or just notes for you that are stored and neatly organized and can be shared with others.
-Twitter- Great tool to communicate tips, events and news to parents. Parents can even receive your tweets via text without signing up for a twitter account. For more info on Twitter to text messages click here.
-Livebinders- Imagine all the (paper) notebooks and binders filled with resources put online! Click here to view my counselor resources livebinder.
-Vistaprint- All of your printing needs will be taken care of. Often there are free specials (business cards, postcards, posters) you just pay for shipping.
-Blogger- What I use for my JYJ Counselor Blog. Also some other blog sites other school counselors use: Wordpress, EduBlogs
-ASCA Scene- great place to find resources, tips, news and networking with school counselors from across the country.
-Weebly- Great website creator. In fact this website was made using Weebly!
-iPads for School Counselors- iPads are everywhere in education, so I decided to create a wiki on iPad use, tips, basics, etc just for us!
