Coursera class starting now?

We are postponing the latest offering of the course on General Game Playing. We may be able to offer the course in the Summer or Fall of this year, but that is not yet certain. The next scheduled session will take place in the Spring of 2017. We will let you know the dates of the next offering as soon as we know for sure.

The main reason for the change is a technical one. Coursera recently switched to a new and improved platform. The Coursera staff kindly offered to port the instructional materials from the old platform to the new platform, but we had too little time to deal with incompatibilities between the platforms. Rather than offering a poor version of the course, we decided to postpone to a later date.

Although we will not be running the MOOC this Spring, we will make all of the materials available to you on the website for the currently running Stanford version of the course. Just click on the link shown below. The materials can be found by via the links at the top of the page. You should be able to access everything except the Piazza newsgroup.

I apologize for this postponement and for the late notice. We had hoped to get everything working on the new platform in time, but it just did not work out. We will do our best to get the course running on the new platform, and we will email you all as soon as we know when we have things ready to go.
