Description

Come to this interactive session to learn how a migration to Sakai can actually be a positive learning experience! We will share our five lessons learned and debunk the most common (flawed) assumptions in planning and executing a change of this magnitude.

Lessons learned include:

1. Embrace the Failure Paradox

2. Timing is everything

3. Do the math

4. It's not open heart surgery

5. Delight people

In addition, we will demonstrate (and share) tools and techniques that helped us along the way including a reporting dashboard and rapid-development tutorial application. UNC's migration to Sakai was formally announced in February 2011 and will be completed by December 2012.
