Since June, I have been earning another Master's Degree, this one in Education. It is my first online degree program. Our fourth month class, called Emergent Technologies In A Collaborative Culture, requires us to develop over 40 connections to blogs relating to education. I have received permission from our teacher, Dr. Seigel, to employ this journal as my site. My reasons for doing so are to 1) create traffic on my own website, and 2) to begin to weave my two separate lives, that as an educator for 20+ years and that of a composer, into one. I hope that some synergy results!
