Web site ACCESS

ACCESS is yet another impressive web site that places so many tools in the hands of all involved in the education process. From teachers, parents, and counselors, and even Governor Riley, everyone has joined in the collaborative effort to give opportunity to our kids. No longer Alabama students have to feel under educated and ranking last next to Mississippi. There are interactive modules, course curriculum and details to help kids learn at their pace or provide supplement learning for continued learning. To be supported by the grants of the wealthy as reinvestment in our society actually does pay it forward. This computer technology gear us forward to the realization of paperless society initiated some years ago.

I was interested in the presentation for guidance counselor as I'm considering this field as a choice in my pursue of an education degree. I want to offer guidance to overlooked average students who are good students but have no true goals or directions, much like I felt as a student. With the site being a tool accessible by all alike, each participant has access to a uniform platform. It even allows the parents to get involved and not just depend on the often forgotten lessons left in the book bag by the student. With this type of technology there is not much down time in the absence of the teacher. The curriculum is available for the sub-teacher to even access if necessary. School continues. The most supportive feature of this site is the availability of school lessons during the summer to help kids retain their learned knowledge. Advancing our education system through this system greatly enhances and accelerate our students for preparation of all the technical and technology jobs of the near future. I'm glad to be informed.
