[Portfolio] NOTE > Today's Sakai Teaching and Learning Call

[Josh Baron]

Folks,

Just wanted to touch base regarding our weekly call that is scheduled to 
begin shortly (12 Noon EDT, call in information is below).

I'm currently in Denver at the EDUCAUSE conference but do plan to activate 
and participate in the call as I'm very interested to hear from folks as 
to the work that has been going on over the last week or so in the Google 
spreadsheet (see below for link).  Unfortunately, I've gotten myself a bit 
over committed here so I'll likely need to leave the call after the first 
half hour but I've arranged to have the call continue so everyone can keep 
talking.

Also, if you have not seen it yet you may want to read Clay's posting from 
yesterday as he is encouraging us keep our focus on "user goals" rather 
than feature requests.  I know that I struggle with this myself but agree 
that it is the right focus.  We may want to discuss this a bit today.

Finally, an apology to folks who are at EDUCAUSE as I was not able to find 
a time when T&L interested folks could easily get together (in part 
because of my crazy schedule here).  This said, I am hoping to see 
everyone at the Open Source Reception scheduled for later this evening and 
would love to chat about our work.  Please don't hesitate to come up to me 
to introduce yourself if we've not met in person before.

Thanks, Josh
