PLEASE RE-TWEET!

(*If you are listed here, you may use this logo! Scroll down for more information and logo information!)

This list is an important list.  I decided to start making a list of interesting and useful MUSIC EDUCATORS to follow on TWITTER.   The majority of this list is compiled of actual Music Educators, Music Professors, and Musicians that are sharing their teaching knowledge through the TWITTER medium.  

If you are using TWITTER and are a Music Educator, THIS IS A MUST FOLLOW LIST.  Use it to instantly create a Music Education PLN (Personal Learning Network).  Every person on this list is an active, kind, and talented musician and educator.  Start your PLN now, by adding all of these folks.  USE THE TWEEPML list/link here or at the bottom of the page to do this in one-easy-step.

If you are interested in being placed on this list and meet the criteria to be listed, please let me know via the CONTACT page or on one of the STANDARD Posts about this subject on the MusTech.Net post pages or… tweet me at http://twitter.com/pisanojm

http://twiterlist2rss.appspot.com/pisanojm/lists/mused/statuses.rss

Here is the on-going and evolving criteria (evolving) to be listed on this prestigious list:

  • Is a musician or music-related entity/group (Industry, Educator, Performer, etc.) that Tweets about relevant Music Ideas, Thoughts, Tips, or News OTHER THAN some type of self- promotion or group or ensemble promotion (i.e. twittering about their latest song, performance, or sale -most of the time, etc.).  
  • Has at least 75 Followers.
  • Has at least 300 Tweets.
  • Has been active on Twitter consistantly in the last 3 months and Tweets at least once a week.
  • Contributes to Twitter Events like #musedchat
  • TWEETS quite a bit about music related topics that would be of interest to most musicians. (Yes, many of their Tweets will/can still be fun, off-topic, or just “stream of consciousness”.)
  • Does NOT  Tweet anything inappropriate for students.
  • Frequently RE-TWEETS others posts and people.
  • Promotes other music educators doing great things like the people on this list through Twitter via vehicles like #followfriday

Please Note: In the end, MusTech.Net makes the decision… there may be some give and sway… Meeting this criteria does not automatically mean you make the list, there may be reasons that you are not listed.  Also, this list is updated every 5-7 weeks, not all the time.  PLEASE be PATIENT!  It is VERY important that we are aware of you and know of you to make this list (@pisanojm).
