Workshop News, Notes, and Sounds

Sakai contains two tools for reporting grades to students, 'Gradebook' and 'Post 'Em'. They both offer distinct advantages and disadvantages. During this lunchtime discussion Adele Poynor and Tricia Humphreys will discuss why they chose to use these tools, and will provide some tips and tricks for their successful use.

This workshop will be held on Thursday, November 19 from 12:00 to 1:00 in Campus Center room 302, lunch will begin at 12:00 and presentations will begin at 12:20. Because of space limitations attendance will be limited to the first 20 who register.
