Sakai Virtual Conference 2014

Bridging Education with Technology

November 7, 2014 - Online

http://virtconf.apereo.org/  #SakaiVC14


Register now! Registration is still open for the Sakai Virtual 
Conference. Registration is $50 per person, with all proceeds going 
toward Sakai feature development. Attendees will have the opportunity to 
provide input on the enhancements they would like to see in Sakai. Lunch 
coupons and promotional items will be provided by our sponsors, and will 
be mailed to participants prior to the event. Register by October 15th 
to receive these promo items!


The Sakai Virtual Conference will take place entirely online on Friday, 
November 7, 2014.  You'll attend presentations in concurrent session 
webinar rooms, ask the presenters live questions, and get the conference 
experience without the expense of travel. There will be opportunities 
for networking and informal discussions, as well as a chance to win 
prizes donated by our sponsors. The “conference location” will be in 
Sakai, and we will be using Sakai tools such as Forums, Lessons, Chat, 
Sign-Up etc. to facilitate interaction among attendees. If you are 
comfortable in Sakai, you will easily engage in this virtual experience.


The program is still being finalized, but it will include a Spanish 
track as well as a variety of presentations in English. There will be 
information sessions, as well as interactive, small-group discussions. 
Find out how your peers are using Sakai at their institutions! 
Presentations will focus on effective teaching and learning practices, 
online pedagogy, and engaging students using technology.


The Sakai Virtual Conference is a unique opportunity to network with 
your peers and share stories and best practices in an online venue.


Register today <http://virtconf.apereo.org/home/registration>and stay 
tuned for publication of the full program!


Sincerely,


Neal Caidin, Sakai Community Coordinator, Apereo Foundation

Wilma Hodges, Sakai Virtual Conference 2014 Planning Committee Chair
