SAKAI and the BCT Community
Sakai can help us:
Build a community of practice for BCT teachers and educational leaders (i.e., shared vision and shared repertoire)
Share experiences, thoughts, knowledge, and resources in relation to our professional practice
Sustain communication and collaboration among BCT teachers and educational leaders

experiences Use discussion forums rather than personal e-mails
Continuous Participation Read forum messages, documents, and resources
(to keep current) Respond to forum messages Post new messages

Why Should We Use Sakai? (2)
Sustainable Interaction IRF: Initiation – Response – Feedback Interact with other BCT teachers and educational
leaders Culture of Sharing and Shared Repertoire
Inform BCT community of activities planned, underway, and done in cycle groups and sub-groups and share the experiences and reflection.
Share “craft” knowledge and expertise within and across cycles

BCT Teachers are Encouraged to: Add the URL (http://sakai.learnquebec.ca) to
your Favorite. Keep up-to-date on what is going on in the
BCT Community. Reply to requests asking for a response (e.g.,
E-mail, Online survey, Discussions in DF) in a timely manner.
Feel free to communicate openly and interact freely.
Keep records of activities in cycle groups and sub-groups (e.g., DF and/or BCT website).

Example of Potential Guidelines
We try to visit the BCT Community on Sakai once a week.
We regularly check announcements and new postings in the Discussion Forum (e.g., BCT Project and Cycle group).
We try to post at least one relevant message each week.
