Description
For this assignment, you will explore the websites of various counseling organizations (i.e., ACA, ASCA, AAMFT, BHEC, TEA) to learn about their purposes, their members, and their member benefits, among other things. To complete the assignment, download the Scavenger Hunt PowerPoint template using the link provided above. Each slide has a list of statements for which you will find answers to complete. The template includes links to the websites that you will peruse, as well as additional instructions. You can customize the template to reflect your design taste. However, you must complete each question that is presented on each slide. Do not complete the statements using word-for-word phrases from the websites, which would constitute plagiarism. Instead, paraphrase your responses into your own words. When you are done with your scavenger hunt and have compiled your presentation, click inside the submission box. Then find the attachment (paperclip) symbol in the menu at the top (second from the right). You will then find your Scavenger Hunt and attach it. Don’t forget to submit your assignment. If it’s not submitted, it will save as a draft only and it will not be able to be viewed or graded.
