Separating the wheat from the chaff

A Blogger Worth Watching = Angela Maiers

Posted by Jamin Lietze on June 1, 2009

Lately I have not been able to keep on top of the many RSS feeds that come into my Netvibes account so I have created another tab and entitled it “First reads”. These RSS feeds are to blogs that I consider priority reading and ones I find enriching, challenging and informing.

A blog I would encourage you to watch is an independent educational consultant by the name of Angela Maiers. Angela lives in Iowa and has a PASSION for education. Passionate people do a good job of what they are passionate about and this is what caught my eye when I first read her blog. Have a read of one of her latest posts entitled “Passion – A Difference Maker“.

What bloggers would you recommend?

    Thanks Jamin, I’m always on the look out for a good blog (just subscribed here in fact!). Three blogs that I always look forward to are Artichoke, Open Educator by Graham Wegner, and Teach42 by Steve Dembo. Millions more of course!
