  1. Charles Hedrick, Eric Jeney · Rutgers University Lessons Why Lessons

    • Emphasis on fully online instruction • No good tools in Sakai • In conventional courses, organize by unit • Our current projects impossible without it • Inspired by Sakai 3 page editor
  2. Charles Hedrick, Eric Jeney · Rutgers University Lessons Goals •

    Structure for online content • Support variety of approaches: hierarchical, sequences • Requirements to release an item • Multimedia • Modern UI • Common Cartridge • Integration with rest of Sakai; groups • Student interaction
  3. Charles Hedrick, Eric Jeney · Rutgers University Lessons Since last

    year • Inline questions • Rubric for students to assess other student content • CC Export • Focusing on smooth behavior, reliability • Currently not in 2.9. Will start appearing in 2.9.3.
  4. Next year • Avoiding major new features • Improve usability,

    integration, minor features • Continued CC work
  5. CC export • We export tests, assignments, topics • Tested

    with Canvas, BB, Moodle (import only) • Issues with all systems, typically minor • Loses features, but content is there • Some work on CC Import • Will appear in 2.9.3 (currently trunk) • Continuing work planned: test banks, mapping question types and Lessons content with no direct equivalent • Sakai-specific extensions? • /direct function for bulk export • Missing: YAFT, Mneme
  6. Charles Hedrick, Eric Jeney · Rutgers University Lessons Implementation •

    Probably 1.5 man-year at this point, about half students • Currently integrates Quiz (Samigo, Mneme), Assignments (A, A2), Forums (Msg Center, jForum, YAFT) • Integration limited by Sakai’s design • A lot of work on video • Separate /access handler • Site copy has pushed site-manage
  7. Charles Hedrick, Eric Jeney · Rutgers University Lessons Technology •

    Started from Simple Page tool • RSF • Hibernate • jQuery used heavily • Limited ajax, for comments and grading
