Primary interest groups/views/consumers of Sakai usage statistics
There are several different groups with different needs for assessing the actual usage of Sakai on an instance-wide basis.
- Technical (developers, dbas)
-
- to predict growth, evaluate long-term resource needs; to quantify performance
- Communications/Marketing
-
- to track adoption and articulate user interest
- Management
-
- to determine strategy based on current usage groups; to target specific groups for adoption
Leveraging the existing (contrib) SiteStats Tool:
- Determine functionality of existing Sakai SiteStats tool
UCD Functionality Wish List:
At this point in time, the following is just a wish list because we don't know yet if it's possible to determine all these statistical data points from the currently collected data in Sakai.
- How many unique users have access sakai
- How many course sites
- How many project sites
- Hourly concurrent users peaks
- Most accessed course sites (top 10)
- Most accessed project sites (top 10)
- Most used tools in course sites (either by tool presents in sites or usage frequency)
- Most used tools in project sites (either by tool presents in sites or usage frequency)
- etc.
Once we have a complete UCD functionality wish list, we need to determine/research, which functionalities can actually be implemented.
