Sakai/OSP Services

Using Sakai/OSP for Assessment

Are you thinking about using Sakai/OSP to develop an ePortfolio system for your campus, college, program, or course? If so, we can work with your stakeholders on site or by web conference and phone to identify assessment processes and develop functional and technical requirements for using Sakai/OSP to assess learning and/or provide data on learning for programmatic or institutional assessment.

Using Sakai/OSP for Self-Presentation

Do you prefer implementing Sakai/OSP to assist students and faculty in representing themselves to the world via a resume or a professional portfolio? We can help you use the latest developments in career services and faculty development to create a state of the art resume and/or professional portfolio to allow users to share their accomplishments with peers, employers, mentors, and administrators.

Designing an ePortfolio Using Sakai

Once you have determined the purpose(s) for your ePortfolio, we can work with you to design a portfolio process and a look and feel for an ePortfolio that works for you. We can help you brand your instance of Sakai and/or Sakai worksites with a skin and logo appropriate for your institution, program, or course. We can also design portfolio templates to capture your educational outcomes with the look and feel of your institution or program.

Customizing OSP Data Structures

After your designs are complete, we can train your XML developers to construct OSP data structures (forms, matrices, wizards, and portfolio templates) or we can construct them for you. Once you have your first set of OSP data structures, we can help you become self-sufficient in creating and maintaining them on your own.

Customizing Courses in Sakai

Instructors and trainers working with a course management system for the first time can benefit from the creation of model course sites offering content and activities attuned to course goals. Let us help you get started with using Sakai for teaching and learning in specific disciplines.

Sakai/OSP Documentation and Training Materials Development

No matter how you decide to use Sakai/OSP, we can provide documentation and materials to capture your use of it in Help documents and/or training materials.

Outsourcing Your Needs "On Demand"

From time to time, you may need extra help to get your institution through a demanding project. We offer "on demand" assistance with quality assurance testing, functional analysis, and instructional design. Free up your staff to do what they do best by inviting us in to offer temporary help.
