*********************************
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

There are several sessions scheduled next week on Using Microsoft Teams as an alternative to BlueJeans, including best practices around creating Teams meetings in Canvas, settings to avoid student disruption, and recording.

Wed August 12, 2020 11:00 AM - 11:55 AM -- Connect to the session (Links to an external site.) Thur August 13, 2020 11:00 AM - 11:55 AM -- Connect to the session (Links to an external site.) To receive the full meeting experience, you may want to join this Microsoft 365 Training Teams prior to joining the sessions: https://teams.microsoft.com/l/team/19%3ac8ce250434a94bcb8374e996510da21d%40thread.tacv2/conversations?groupId=3c11ac22-c4c6-49c3-87c6-e185261ed82a&tenantId=482198bb-ae7b-4b25-8b7a-6d7f32faa083 (Links to an external site.) This is likely particularly useful for those with classes > 150 who would prefer more in session interactivity than Bluejeans Events provides, or those looking for a more feature full option such as7x7 video grid of participants and together mode. (Links to an external site.) These sessions will be recorded and made available in this GTRHTA course. Thanks and have a great weekend.
