[Building Sakai] Fwd: Fwd: A little difficulty

[Sean Keesler]

Hassan,

I've been working with you for a couple weeks through the sakaiproject
website contact form and I'm so glad you got it up and running.
Welcome to the community!

In a nutshell, you can create a number of course, project and
portfolio work sites in Sakai, add users to the system and add them to
your worksites. Each worksite can have any number of collaboration
and/or teaching tools in it for that site to use. You could do this in
the Admin Workspace worksite using the Users and Worksite Setup tools.

There is quite a bit of documentation included in the distribution itself:
https://source.sakaiproject.org/svn/reference/tags/sakai-2.6.2/docs/architecture/

and in the help tool in Sakai itself, under the "Course/Project Sites" section,

and on our wiki:
http://confluence.sakaiproject.org/display/DOC/Sakai+Admin+Guide+-+Configuring+Sakai+from+within+the+Web+Application

If you'd like to join me in an Elluminate session, we can spend a few
minutes looking at a basic site setup.
