[Announcements] Sakai-Turnitin Integration

[Dolphin Ian (Sakai)]

Dear Colleague

In recent months members of several Sakai lists have expressed concern regarding integration with Turnitin. As a result of a conversation between Turnitin and the University of Oxford, I am pleased to announce an initiative to consolidate effort around a new Sakai-Turnitin integration, which has the working title of TS2. Please see the attached letter from Turnitin for further details

Oxford have agreed to coordinate the Sakai community effort, but need help from the broader community to realize the new integration. If your institution uses Turnitin integrated with Sakai, please consider -

* Adding your contact details to the confluence page at
https://confluence.sakaiproject.org/display/TII/Home
We will be launching a new mailing list to support this activity in the near future - signing up on this page will include you in this list.

* Contacting Adam Marshall at the University of Oxford ( adam.marshall at it.ox.ac.uk ) to volunteer resource to help the effort. Development, code review, documentation & testing are all needed - as are early adopters. Please consider the roles your institution could play. 

This initiative offers an opportunity to coordinate efforts across the Sakai Community to meet a widely expressed need. Please contribute accordingly.

Best

Ian Dolphin
