Sakai & Group Projects: A Demonstration
Thursday, March 25
2-3 pm
[register]

Would you like to know how you can use Sakai to help your group work and collaborate more effectively?  Project sites @ UNC are growing in numbers daily. See for yourself how easy they are to set up and use. Afterward, if you like, you can request a site for your own group.

A few disclaimers:

1. Prior to the session, you will receive the URL & instructions
2. If you want to hear and speak, you’ll need one of the following:
   • computer with speakers and a microphone OR
   • a headset with a noise-canceling microphone
3. Some are brand new Sakai webinars — so let’s agree to collectively embrace any technical difficulties that emerge and aim to grow from the learning experience.

Hope to see you there!
