https://www.concentra-cms.com/cfp/p/2012-jasig-sakai
Share your successes at the inaugural Jasig-Sakai conference!

Something special is happening in Atlanta, June 10-15. Jasig and Sakai, two
of the pioneers of open source software in higher education, are pooling
resources to provide a better home for innovation. The Jasig-Sakai
Conference will showcase the adoption and growth of software to support
advances in learning, teaching and research, together with the
infrastructure that enables it.

Come to learn about - and share your experience with - the Sakai
Collaboration and Learning Environment <http://sakaiproject.org/sakai-cle>
to support a variety of approaches to teaching and learning; uPortal
<http://www.jasig.org/uportal>  to present a unified view of campus
services; CAS <http://www.jasig.org/cas>  to offer single sign-on to
multiple online resources; or Bedework <http://www.jasig.org/bedework>  to
deliver a robust calendaring solution. Engage with the dreamers and
designers of uMobile <http://www.jasig.org/umobile> , a framework for
innovative mobile solutions.  See the latest release and contribute to the
vision of the Sakai Open Academic Environment
<http://sakaiproject.org/welcome-sakai-oae> , a next-generation approach to
promote effective learning, teaching and research online. Share your
successes on, and ask your peers about, raising campus awareness and
ultimately adoption of open initiatives through "The 2-3-98 Project
<http://www.jasig.org/2-3-98> ."

We invite you to submit a proposal
<https://www.concentra-cms.com/cfp/p/2012-jasig-sakai>  to this year's
conference. Share your great work with the community and spark new
developments through a track presentation, technology demonstration, or
birds of a feather event. The deadline for proposals is Sunday, March 18,
2012.

Want to see or hear about a specific subject at the conference?

topic ideas to the program committee.

Above all, the Atlanta conference is a global networking point for
