Sakai Project Sites for Everyone

Sakai is the primary online collaboration and learning environment at Ithaca College. Sakai "project sites" allow any staff member, student, or faculty member to create a Sakai site (and any Sakai tools desired within that site) that is not tied to a Homer enrollment roster  or a particular semester (unlike "course sites"). Site owners add their project site participants manually, and sites are available continuously. Participants may include both IC and non-IC community members. Project sites can be used for a variety of online information-sharing purposes such as collaboration, organization, presentation, and learning. Examples of project sites include:

• research project sites
• department, organization, or club sites
• ongoing course material resources
• team or working group activities (e.g., planning for conference or other event)
• employment sites (e.g., for search, promotion, or tenure review)
• ongoing collaboration activities for standing committees, student groups, etc.
• sharing materials beyond a specific group
• academic or reference resources for a group

ITS offers computing workshops every week on a variety of topics in the Technology Learning Center (101 Friends Hall) at no charge to all faculty, staff, and students.
