Case studies, case studies, and more case studies...

This morning's post got me thinking about case studies and I realized that there's another great case study on Kapiolani Community College's use of the Open Source Portfolio and Sakai. I don't think it's been widely available so hopefully one of the three people that read this blog will find the attached PDF and share it. :-) Here's a couple of teasers:

As implementation of the rSmart Sakai CLE portfolio began two years ago, the hope was to improve student performance. But, something remarkable happened on the way to ePortfolios: In addition to student engagement in ePortfolios, faculty using portfolios were “transformed as teachers,” says Vice Chancellor Pagotto. “Very significant is what happens to the teacher in the classroom.”

 

“We’ve been subscribers to WebCT from the initial launch, but we’re winding up our contract and we’ll be going with Sakai”
