Description

Sakai forms the foundation for exciting work being done in unusual spaces: a consortium of small colleges in Appalachia (the LAMP consortium); a group of seminaries and missions organizations around the globe (the LikeBerea consortium); and a commercial leadership development effort (Leaders Ought To Know). This session focuses on the many choices offered by Sakai including options for hosting, support and funding as well as ways to extend Sakai through integrated Drupal front ends, BigBlueButton video conferencing, Turnitin plagiarism detection, iRubric, and Vimeo video streaming. The session will show how Sakai can be used as a foundation for true, award-winning collaboration (one consortium won the Mellon Award for Technology Collaboration) and the creation of community, even when that community spans the globe.
