[Portfolio] Invitation to Join the Group! > Today's Sakai Teaching and Learning Call

[Josh Baron]

Colleagues,

We will be holding our weekly Teaching and Learning Call today (Wednesday) 
from 2 - 3 PM Eastern Time and I would like to extend a special invitation 
to anyone in the community who has considered participating in these 
meetings to join the call today.  Historically, we have used the first 
couple of calls following our main conference to share insights and ideas 
that came out of the conference and discuss priorities for the coming year 
so its a good time for new folks to join the conversation.  If you are 
interested but can't join this week please consider joining next week 
(June 18th) as we will be continuing this general discussion for the next 
few calls.

In terms of a specific agenda for today, I would like to take a few 
minutes to update the group on the Lessons Enhancement Project that we've 
been working on prior to the conference.  I am pleased to be able to 
announce that Tufts University has committed, along with Marist College, 
to contributing $5,000 so we are a step closer to being ready to launch 
the project.  There are several other institutions who have expressed 
interest who I am waiting to hear from so I'm hoping that we will be ready 
to start the project by the end of June.  Beyond this, there are a few 
particularly important things that came out of the conference from my 
perspective which I am sure is the case of others as well so I thought we 
could take some time to share and discuss them.
