Project Sites

Use project sites in the Sakai CLE to collaborate with fellow instructors, support research projects, target communications toward groups of users at your institution, or encourage students to engage in group project, clubs, organizations or extracurricular activities.

Your institution gets to decide which tools you wish to make available to project sites. Additionally, each project owner may choose all or a subset of the following tools available for project sites at your institution:
