[Portfolio] Lessons/Lesson Builder > Teaching and Learning Capability Review

[Josh Baron]

Colleagues,

As many may already know, the Sakai Teaching and Learning Group has been 
developing plans for a new service we hope to provide to the larger 
community which we're calling Teaching and Learning Capability Reviews. 
These reviews, which we plan to do in close collaboration with the lead 
tool developer(s) and the larger Sakai technical community, will be 
designed to provide thoughts and ideas on future capability enhancements 
and usability improvements.  You can see more about the process and what 
we hope to produce at: https://confluence.sakaiproject.org/x/QwzzB.

As an initial pilot, the group has been spending time discussing the 
Lesson Builder or Lessons tool and interacting with Chuck Hedrick, one of 
the lead tool developers at Rutgers University.   We are now working to 
create a preliminary list of capability enhancement ideas which is the 
first step in our review process and is intended to surface early thinking 
and gather broad community input.  You can see what has been posted 
already and add your own thoughts at: 
https://confluence.sakaiproject.org/x/xQvzB

We would like to encourage anyone who has ideas and input to post it to 
the wiki page (https://confluence.sakaiproject.org/x/xQvzB) or add your 
thoughts to the comments.  Please add your content no later than 
Wednesday, October 16, 2013 as following this date we will begin to review 
and organize the feedback.

We are very interested in getting more people involved in this work so 
please join us on our weekly calls on Wednesday from 4 - 5 PM Eastern (New 
York) Time.  Conference call schedule and dial-in information is online 
at: 
https://confluence.sakaiproject.org/display/PED/Sakai+Teaching+and+Learning+Conference+Calls
.

Thanks, Josh
