Sakai (https://sakai.plu.edu) is PLU’s learning management system, a resource for face-to-face, online, and blended courses. Professors may use Sakai to distribute class materials, communicate with their class, create assignments, and deliver online tests. Many tools are available, and your professor chooses tools that are relevant to your class.
