Future Directions

Sakai 3: Desiging the Next Generation Sakai

We have encountered a sea change in higher education; new functions and features are not going to be enough to meet the needs of tomorrow’s learners. Sakai has staked out a future direction where its openness and community are powerful differentiators.Sakai 3 will be the next major new version of the Sakai software. The kernel leapfrogs many current-generation architectures for software of its category. The enhanced functionality of Sakai 3 will include:

• A revamped user experience
• A powerful and easy to use content authoring capability
• Social networking features
• Improved teaching and learning workflows
• Increased scalability
• Ease of use for software developers

Realizing the Sakai 3 vision will require contributions from all of us, and we encourage you to get involved. You can find out more by downloading the Sakai 3 Whitepaper, find out the latest information about Sakai 3 by visiting the wiki page or review the latest slide deck about Sakai 3 below.
