*PROBLEMS WITH OUR SAKAI LMS – ONLINE SYSTEM*
*PETITION FOR REFORMATION*
The Sakai Lms – Online has been a headache to the student body for some time now. As it stands, so many objections has been raised against the system and many had the wish to return to the days of taking modules.
Well, considering the large amount of fees we pay every year, we deserve better hence the initiative to bring about a reform in the Sakai system that will support our performance rather than impede it.
A little interview in the student domain has given as some reasons to the dissatisfaction of students in the online system and we duly want to present these to the University for a Reform.
We touch on problems such as,
1.Inability to access our previous work during IAs leading to loss of marks.
2. Early System Shutdown during IAs making workers who has to seek permission before coming to write stranded.
4. Dates and time for IAs are not strictly adhered leading to students not been able to write some of their IAs – losing 30% in their exam.
5. Sakai been an APPLICATION that can give us prompts.
6. Typo Errors in our learning materials leading to difficulty in reading and understanding.
*RECOMMENDATIONS*
1. Sakai Lms – Online system should be structured to suit easy navigation to previous work so that students can easily flag questions that cannot be answered head – on.
2. Since most students are workers and that the IAs are taken on week days, we want an extension in time for the system shutdown form 5pm to 6pm so that people who need to close from work before they write their IAs will find it easy to do so.
3. We want the department to be time conscious .This will help rectify problems and confusion that comes with writing IAs leading to failure of students to write their IAs and the loosing of 30% marks due to inaccurate information given about time and date for the exam.
4. Sakai should be an app. This will help students to easily access the system without having to log in on a laptop or tablet. The app will be easily accessible on phones and this will decrease the financial woes of students. The app will also come with prompts which will readily privy students to information.
5. Most often, the modules posted on Sakai for students to use are scanty and with so many typo errors. We want the materials posted to be well scrutinised before loads for us to read for our examination.
*This is a seven (7) page petition that will be presented to the various departments and stakeholders concerned. We believe Distance Education deserves the best and the only way that change can manifest is when we get to work.*
*We therefore crave your indulgence to sign on this all important petition so we can improve the systems and structures made available to us. Thank you.*
Change! Let’s get to work.

The volume of support has secured us a formal meeting with the administrative office to discuss these technical failures. I am currently finalizing the list of documented system errors to present as our primary agenda items.

The Sakai lms has failed to assist students as it promised. Even on the days of Interim assessment student have to face a lot of problems before they can complete their test. The system needs urgent attention.
We need a reform to our Sakai. Especially it been an App and flaging questions during IA
It is soo disgusting and disturbing that we are rather being underrated aside all these investments into our education.
Please when typing I face lot of difficulties and therefore most of mine time is wasted
I'll be very happy if Sakai is eliminated from the system because I always end up with headache when submitting my assignment and there's a network problem.Yeah I'll be very glad if this petition is granted.
Sakia has been a problem for me and am hoping something could be done
Yes I duly agree with my collages on this sakai system issues and it's really bordering our mind,we may request if it can be sides out and then we enjoy olden level of models of slides and we also ask for more improvement in the distance education as UNIVERSITY of Ghana student.kindly consider the huge some of money we paid olas admission and fees but yet nothing better has been done for us,we even told that we the distance IT student will be given tablet for studying but it was no where to found. thanks.

Am a victim of Sakai LMS. It is true that students, especially level 100 students are faced with numerous technical and a variety of challenges as far as the Sakai LMS is concerned. UGDE Management should kindly endeavour to revisit the Sakai LMS and restructure the system so that students can learn effectively. So far, the negative aspects of the system are more than the positive aspects. We pray that management would hear and consider our petition. Thanks!!!
