Help is your friend

The Sakai instance administrator has their own set of tools for manipulating sites, users, membership resources, and so on; teachers, students, and project members have other sets of tools. As Sakai evolves, new tools come into play and older tools are phased out.

Universities such as Indiana University (https://oncourse.iu.edu/portal/site/!gateway/page/!gateway-500) have large bodies of helpful online material. However, the most immediate and up-to-date source of information is Sakai's own context-sensitive help system. You'll find a question mark icon in each tool's work area; click on it and the searchable context-sensitive help appears, as shown in the next screenshot:

Each tool registers its help file with a central service that is kept up-to-date with the most recent changes in Sakai and its tools. If you discover errors, technical or non-technical and/or see limitations in the help text, then contributions from the community are always encouraged.
