In Dr. Pisano’s effort to get 100 Music Education (ME) Bloggers by the end of this year, I thought it would be interesting to go through those blogs he has listed and see if I could determine when they all started.

2002

2004

2005

2006

2007

2008

Unknown

Are you a music educator with a blog? Did I leave you off this list? Leave a comment, and I’ll add you.

Some interesting points of interest here that I discovered is that there seem to be music educators creating blogs all the time. Since June of 2007, at least one blog a month has been created. This is wonderful! With this many blogs, there should be no shortage of great content in December’s edition of the Music Education Blog Carnival! So go ahead and submit an article.

Joel This is a great historical list! Congrats, I am going to post to it.
One addition, is I started my first education/music blog on October 5th, 2005 @ jpisano.com/blog This was folded and reborn into mustech.net in August of 2006.

I’d also like permission to reprint this list and credit and link to you/it under the ME Blogger tab on page…

Thanks for taking the time to compile this list. The first article I published was actually this one:

http://collaborativepiano.blog.....piano.html

I created the test post later as a place to dump images so I could harvest the source url’s later

Wow! What an undertaking! This is so fun to have in list form. I began going through each one a while ago, but this list motivates me to continue!

Chris, I made the change. Thanks!

Rebecca, I was surprised by how much it motivated me too. I was saddened by the number of blogs I found that had been around for more than a few months and had less than 5 posts. Maybe this trackback will help inspire them to write some more…

Hi Joel - that’s an interesting study! My own music education blog has lapsed (pwhitfield.edublogs.org) but not my commitment to elearning and music! I found I was writing online in just too many different places so I re-organised! In particular, I found that carrying on the discussion in places like classroom20.ning.com was more valuable to me than my own blog, and I wanted to integrate my professional music blogging and my education blogging in one place, as it hit me that these were not separate but mutually beneficial. All the best.

Joel,

Thanks for putting in the work to put together this list!

Since you have my site down as Unknown I will clarify things a bit. MusicEdMagic actually started on July 26th of 2005 but with a different domain name. My first article (Group Discipline While Traveling) is still up there at the address: http://www.musicedmagic.com/ed.....eling.html

I didn’t start calling my blog Tales From The Podium until much later. Sorry for the confusion. :)

Fantastic list, thanks for putting this together.

Now I’ve just got to find time to investigate all those extra resources . . . .

I must admit it was a fun project. Just sitting down and reading a few music education blogs really inspired me and gave me a few new feeds to follow as well. Thanks for all of your comments! I’m away from home, but when I get back I will make sure to make all of the changes you have all suggested.

I’m a music teacher with an education blog–but I don’t blog exclusively about music education. Does that count? I’ve been blogging since January 2007…
