PLN: MusicEdMajor.net

Amy Burns suggested this blog in a recent posting.  The site was created and is maintain by an undergraduate music education major at University of Miami.  Although the blog does not entirely apply to me, I think it is an important resource to pass forward to students.  I gave a presentation about successful teaching in the first-year at NEOEA today, during which I provided a list of web resources.  This would have been another great addition.  It is a great way to combat the isolating circumstances that most music educators experience, especially in a new job.  Also, I am impressed with the layout, tags, etc.  Can anyone recognize how this site was put together?  Is it Blogger?

    I am really excited to explore this website, Vanessa - thank you for passing it along. As a pre-service teacher, I am quite intimidated about my first year of being out in the field, and I'm always looking for the beginning educator. At the OMEA convention, I usually attend as many of the "Surviving the First Year" seminars as possible. This might be a really dumb question, but what is the NEOEA that you presented at the other day?
