Sakai: Open Source … Open Minds
"Unlike Learning Management Systems, Sakai turns students into active learners and contributors, and the instructor into a facilitator. The instructor activates tools and gives students, or groups of students, permissions to use them as they like; the instructor does not have to be an expert in the tools. This is just the start of the difference between Sakai and LMSs."

Using a wiki to document Isaak, Brock University’s Sakai-Based LMS
"The web is the best tool for infinite access to the same resource and to that end the CTLET look to Wikis to document things like WebCT, Sakai/Isaak, Brock University on iTunes U, etc. This decision to use a wiki was because of the constantly evolving nature of these teaching tools and the scarce resources of the Centre: It was just more timely to write-up articles that explain things or to write a how-tos that were sufficient and then post them. "
