[sakai-pmc] Fwd: [Using Sakai] T&L Group Call > Special Guest UX Designer Sam Peck

[Josh Baron]

First, congratulations to Chuck and Steve for their recent elections!

Just to add some context to the posting Neal shared, having Sam join the 
call is follow up to a couple of months of discussions around how to move 
the Lessons Enhancement Project forward and particularly the need to bring 
resources (i.e. money) to the table to support this project.  Sam is in 
the process of developing cost estimates which we will use to engage with 
institutional leaders to seek resource contributions.  Also, we had a very 
positive conversation with Charles Hedrick regarding interest in a major 
UI redesign of Lessons which he has expressed a great deal of interest in.

Beyond this specific effort, I'm hoping that the work we are planning to 
do will create a model for future additional enhancement projects.

Comments, feedback and questions are all welcomed!

FYI, Josh

Colleagues, 

I am excited to share that Sam Peck (http://www.sampeck.co.uk/), an 
internationally recognized User Experience (UX) designer who has worked on 
both Sakai and OAE, will be joining our weekly Teaching and Learning call 
on Wednesday (May 14, 2014) from 2 - 3 PM Eastern to have a preliminary 
discussion on how we might approach a major redesign of the Lessons (aka 
Lesson Builder).  I have had a few conversations with Sam about the 
discussions the group has had and the work that was explored over the past 
year but we are at a point where it seemed like to would be of mutual 
value for him to talk with the larger group.   

I'd like to suggest that you bring any questions, concerns or ideas to the 
call as we'll have a fairly informal exchange with him after some 
introductory comments.  If we have time, we can also try and talk a bit 
about how we might contribute to the new SakaiProject.org web site. 

I will post dial-in information and a reminder on Wednesday morning. 

Josh
