Writing for PLN
Connected Educators
Connected Educators
          "...connected educators are in a
          more powerful position than
          those who are isolated. They have
          a greater ability to check their
          facts, call on support and find out
          new things when connected to
          their personal learning networks
          than they do isolated"

          "...the ability...to share
          knowledge has become a part of
          the cultural capital of the
          connected educator"
          Steve Wheeler, University of Plymouth

Open Publishing & Review
            "I cannot offer you any payment...
            beyond the knowledge that you will
            be helping to fix the broken model of
            academic publishing."
            Alan Cann
            http://scienceoftheinvisible.blogspot.co.uk/


            "Open access is not synonymous
            with poor quality. In fact many
            online open access journals work
            twice as hard to prove that they are
            high quality. What open access does
            mean is larger readerships for the
            published research.”
            Steve Wheeler, University of Plymouth
