Sakai Video Plugin Test Fest

Finally we got an stable version of Sakai video chat plugin based on WebRTC . We had to solve some details to work in a cluster environment but finally we can offer you a release candidate.

Now, our intention is to know if that feature can be included on the main Sakai code, for this reason we prepared a TEST fest to achieve to purposes:

- Get any bug we missed.
-  Enable the Sakai community to test that functionality. That would help Sakai CLE members to decide if it would be interesting to put in the trunk on not.

We prepared a Sakai site at University of Murcia's QA server with the instruction to complete a test of functionalities of video calls.

If you want to participate, you must create an account at here, and join to the Test Video Chat Test site. There, you will find the instructions we wrote there. You will see that in that site you will find a sign-up tool to coordinate the availability of people to test each other.

Connecting Sakai to Wordpress

LMS platforms have fairly long been consolidated at universities as on-line learning support tools. For a long time they were exposed to disappear because of the low level of interoperability to third-party services they offered. Finally, as a result of that need together with the mobility nature of teachers and students between institutions (and consequently on its LMS), interoperability mechanisms were implemented to bring the required tools to their users. Tool interoperability allows to connect remote tools inside LMS environment, keeping them contextualized by the courses or activities from they are called. There were some attempts like IMS-TI (IMS Tool Interoperability) or Campus Project, but it was not until the emergence of IMS LTI   1.0 (IMS Learning Tool Interoperability) that TI technology became more popular.   Nowadays, you can find several examples of LMS that implement IMS LTI  like Angel, Moodle, BlackBoard, D2L, etc. M any of these LMS, i...

AI and the Economics of Legacy Software

A few weeks ago, I started thinking about a software project that I had almost completely forgotten. In 2013, Juanjo Meroño and I built LooWID, an open source video conferencing platform based on WebRTC. Some time later, Edu Rey joined us to help with the UI, giving the project an important qualitative leap in its user experience and making the product feel much more complete. We developed it for several years, adapting it to the rapidly changing browser and WebRTC ecosystem, until around 2018–2019 we eventually stopped maintaining it.The code remained public. The product remained there. But the technology around it moved on. Years later, I wondered what would happen if we tried to bring it back—not by trying to make the old application run again, but by asking AI to help us rebuild the product. The original project is still available on GitHub , and the result of the experiment is LooWID Remastered . From legacy code to a working product I used OpenCode as the main development agent. ...

Two Decades of Sakai at UdL: Thoughs, Challenges, and the Road Ahead

It’s been a long time since I last wrote an article, but the recent gathering with fellow members of the Spanish Sakai community inspired me to share a few thoughts on our years of using Sakai at the University of Lleida (UdL) and its future. Two Decades of Sakai at UdL: A Commitment to Innovation Since September 13, 2004, the University of Lleida (UdL) has maintained a strong relationship with the Sakai platform. Over the past 20 years, UdL has focused on advancing ICT support for teaching and learning. From its initial launch with an early version of Sakai (1.0rc2), the platform has been a key tool in meeting the university’s educational needs. UdL chose Sakai to replace WebCT, opting for an open-source solution that aligned with its commitment to free software at the time. In the early years, UdL played an active role in developing Sakai. A notable contribution was the internationalization of the platform, making it easy to translate without modifying the source code. This effort he...
