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

The Institute for Computing Education (ICE) is offering a series of weekend computing workshops for 4th - 6th graders. Each workshop will be $25 per person. Each will have a maximum of 24 students. The workshop will take place in the College of Computing, room 345. The workshops run from 9:00am - 12:00pm or 1pm - 4pm. In this workshop students will create a “Seeking” Game where a character “searches” through different scenes and moves using the We-Do Tilt Sensor. Students will also create a driving simulator and use the Distance Controller to create a Virtual Instrument in Scratch. To register, please visit: http://coweb.cc.gatech.edu/ice-gt/1443.
