So much information! Is it possible to choose one network and stick to just that one? But not all sites are available for all networks. It appears that by establishing an account on more than one network, articles and information would be duplicated, creating the appearance of more information than is really there. It could easily be information overload.
One site I included in my PLN is Project MUSE, Philosophy of Music Education Review (http://muse.jhu.edu/journals/philosophy_of_music_education_review/summary/v017/17.1.laird.html). This site allows each volume to be searched and articles downloaded.

I'm not sure what you mean by various "networks." You are subscribing to various resources (blogs, podcasts, wikis, news sites, etc.). Each of these has a unique RSS feed that will result in your notification when new materials are available. The advantage of a tool like Google Reader is that you can subscribe to and benefit from many different resources, but you only have to go to one place to see what's new.
ReplyDeletePlease make your PLN links "clickable" by using Blogger's link tool. What sort of articles are in Philosophy of Music Education review? Why might these be valuable? Provide a little more detail so that others in your PLN can quickly determine whether this is a resource that they might like to add to their Google Reader.
