Description

Technology is embedded in every school psychologist’s day-to-day work. It is vital that we have the competence to evaluate innovative technology as it becomes available and to use it effectively (NASP, 2020). Shiny new technologies seem to come on the market daily, but unfortunately, many of these have no empirical research to support their use. And, even though we know this is not best practice, the decision to use (or not to use) a technology may be influenced by fancy packaging or word of mouth. In response, the goal of this webinar is to provide attendees strategies for making informed decisions about how to select technological tools that will enhance their work.

Learner Objective:

This session will help participants to:

1. Determine if a technology is effective (Does it work?).
2. Determine if a technology is efficient (Is it worth it?).
3. Determine if a technology is relevant (Is it feasible?) and durable (Will it last?).
