Having cut my teeth in the mainframe world in the late ‘70, I can perhaps be forgiven if I had a hard time seeing the value of off-campus hosting. But recent experiences have me doing a one-eighty. For the first time in my life (for the past two years) I no longer have to worry about the servers, the operating systems, etc. etc. etc. and can concentrate on what I should be focusing on – using Sakai to improve teaching and learning. I leave the technology to the experts, and it works great. Affordably, too!
