There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

As the number of MOOCs increases, a greater number of students are receiving a shot at course credit. More and more universities are taking the route of Georgia Tech's Online Master of Science in Computer Science (OMS CS) program and launching MOOC or MOOC-based programs.
