You are enthusiastically invited to be a part of the Sakai Fall 2008 Regional Conference in Blacksburg, Virginia. This conference will offer many opportunities for professional development, strategic planning, and the sharing of best practices. Proposals were invited which focused on one of two general themes: 1) pedagogy and instructional strategies supported by Sakai, and 2) migration/adoption strategies. Subthemes of this conference will include positioning Sakai as a platform for new pedagogies, student engagement, ePortfolio, and assessment. Attendees can also expect to hear discussions on faculty development, user support, marketing Sakai within a legacy scenario, diffusion strategies, and building support for change.
