<h1>Apereo Strategy Review<o:p></o:p></h1>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#202020"><br>
Apereo was formed five years ago, as a result of lengthy discussion and consultation between two already well-connected communities, Jasig and Sakai. During that five years Apereo has grown from a handful of software communities to almost twenty. Collectively,
 the overwhelming sense I get from our communities is that the merger has worked – but that doesn’t mean that there have not been setbacks, and it doesn’t mean that there is no room to improve. The fact that we hold conversations about our progress – warts
 and all – in public, in a careful, considered, and considerate manner is not a weakness, but a strength.<br>
<br>
The mission of Apereo, "… to assist and facilitate educational organizations which collaborate to foster, develop, and sustain open technologies and innovation to support learning, teaching, and research," has guided our strategy closely to this point, and
 should continue to do so. The context we operate within continues to evolve and change, however, and it’s entirely appropriate, five years in, that we have an open community conversation that considers those developments and their impact on what we do. That’s
 why the Apereo Foundation Board has developed the strategic planning draft at - <a href="https://apereo.us17.list-manage.com/track/click?u=a275a881dc110bf42cf8aced6&id=b321eb51f5&e=75432191ac">
<span style="color:#2BAADF">https://bit.ly/2HLIpK8</span></a><br>
<br>
Although brief, this draft document is designed around several interlocking elements. The first of these is to bring a greater degree of transparency to planning – both in articulation and realization. We’re a community that relies on organizational and individual
 volunteers to a very considerable degree. Collectively articulating what needs to be done is the basis for volunteer participation. Given the experience of merger and growth, the Board are moving this to a more coherent plane.<br>

 <br>
This year’s conference was an opportunity to catch up on – and get a glimpse of things to look forward to in the latest and/or upcoming versions of –
<strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif">Apereo projects like uPortal
</span></strong>(portal of services)<strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif">, Karuta
</span></strong>(e-portfolios)<strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif">, OAE
</span></strong>(next-gen collaboration platform)...<br>
<br>
The keynote presentation – given by Ian Dolphin (Apereo) and Michael Webb (Jisc) – focused on
<strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif">Learning Analytics</span></strong>, a globally trending topic in the Higher Ed community, providing some valuable information especially in regards to the upcoming application of the GDPR. Other sessions
 centered on solutions developed in France like <strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif">ESUP-Pay</span></strong> (online payment),

The Apereo Africa 2018 conference took place in <u>Potchefstroom</u>, South Africa on the 8th and 9th of May. The event was co-hosted by the North-West University (NWU) and
<a href="https://apereo.us17.list-manage.com/track/click?u=a275a881dc110bf42cf8aced6&id=9213a2fe6c&e=75432191ac" target="_blank">
<span style="color:#2BAADF">OPENCOLLAB</span></a> and was followed by an entertaining Tsugi workshop with Dr Chuck on the 10th.<br>
<br>
This year the African community was fortunate to have had four international speakers representing different Apereo products alongside speakers from African Universities, a South African TVET college, and other private educational institutions. <br>
<br>
The presentations during the conference were well balanced between vision and strategy and the practical use of technology in post-secondary education. Both Apereo and the local African institutions focused on the evolution of education along the lines of the
 NGDLE in support of the next generation student and their need to be taught in an engaging way.<br>

 May 9th! For the last two months, the Office of eLearning at UD has tirelessly worked to migrate all of their customizations from Sakai 11.4 to Sakai 12.0. Completing this critical task on such a short timeline would not have been possible without the fantastic
 work done by so many members of the Sakai community. Thank you all!<br>
<br>
With the upgrade behind us, UD looks forward to the summer where they can pivot their efforts to sharing their Sakai 12.0 work with the Sakai community, continuing to create tailor-made experiences for their faculty and students, and re-focusing on Tsugi and
 learning app development.<br>
