Sakai Tip: Creating Student Journals with the Forums Tool
Sakai’s Forums tool is often utilized in courses to encourage student engagement with a topic and each other. However, it can also be used for more private journals and reflection assignments where only the student and instructor see the entries, and is more versatile than the Blogs tool.
