Tech Savy World By: Charlotte Christian +charlotte christian Get on Board With Technology Congratulations to Casey Wardynski, the Huntsville, Alabama superintendent of education for being named “Tech Savvy Superintendent Of the Year” by Eschoolnews.com. Under Wardynski’s leadership, Huntsville, Alabama City Schools System has initiated a 100% technology program for all schools within the system. Students either use school issued Ipads or Laptops. The school system determined leasing the technology was cheaper than purchasing new books. As attorneys, we are generally characterized as late adaptors; however, technology is a necessity for our practices. I would challenge late adaptors to follow the lead of Superintendent Wardynski and take your practice 100% technology. Technology in the sense of the word for attorneys does not mean a computer for the secretaries. The need to use technology for attorneys extends to Google+, Smart Phones, Twitter, Blogging and Websites. For more ideas on turning your practice into a technological practice, join a group on Google+, sign up for twitter and begin following those with common interests. Take advantage of the example that has been given to us here in the Huntsville and North Alabama and implement technology.
