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"

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 Cannhttp://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 Plymouthhttp://steve-wheeler.blogspot.co.uk/
