The Sakai Learning Capabilities Design Lenses are the product of the collective efforts of educators, instructional designers, and other pedagogically minded individuals who are part of the Sakai Teaching & Learning community. Each Design Lens represents a perspective from which we can envision the learning capabilities of a new Sakai. After a year of development, the Sakai Open Academic Environment (OAE) embodies much of this shared vision. In this session we?ll focus on what the first release of OAE will deliver from the perspective of the Design Lenses and what learning capabilities our institutions will need to be able to fulfill our short-term and long-term plans. We will reflect on the original Design Lenses and discuss how the Teaching and Learning community can stay engaged with OAE development efforts.

4. Background & History
• Next phase of T&L Involvement (aXer BC)
• Saw opportunity to engaged around Sakai 3
• Process and final deliverable was unclear
• Jumped in by Doc. Learning Capabili/es
• Focused on simple user‐centric needs
• Quickly generated 160+ rows in Google
• Used to Iden/fy Overarching LC Themes
• Went back and tagged each Learning Capability

5. Background & History
• Stepped Back and Pondered…
• Organically developed Design Lenses Concept
• Realized we needed to refine what we had
• Version 1.0
• Seven (7) Design Lenses and associated Facets
• Linked to specific Learning Capabili/es
• Became a vision for all of Sakai
