Following a successful pilot and with the approval of the Committee on Information Technology, Wake Forest University will transition from Blackboard to Sakai, a free and open-source online collaboration and learning management system. Sakai will offer some new features including wikis, blogs and chat. Sakai orientation sessions for faculty will be offered throughout the summer. Sign up for a Sakai class through the PDC site. The transition timeline and answers to other frequently asked questions are also available online.
ZSR will host two workshops this summer on using Zotero, an open-source citation manager, to collect and cite your research sources. Additionally, supporting documentation for Zotero and other tools can be found online.
