World University and School's online, International Baccalaureate school (beginning around 2015?) - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/WUaS_International_Baccalaureate_Diploma_and_Programme - is planning to be free and in the 6 United Nations' languages, and MIT OCW High School-centric ... Kids will hang out with friends in their neighborhood ... 


The online World University and School bookstore - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Bookstore_/_Computer_Store_%28New_%26_Used%29_at_WUaS - is also planning to be in the 6 United Nations' languages, to start, and perhaps eventually on-the-ground, as

a.
bookstore/computer store (for textbooks -- e.g. the MIT bookstore, as one example - and top-of-the-lists WUaS-centric new and used computers and software, etc. )

b.
informal student center (where prospective students can talk to a person) in WUaS as a education service organization, (akin to AFSC offices around the world)

c.
and possibly also as wired classroom for 40 people, (with WUaS's Conference Method of Teaching and Learning in mind)



in a nice neighborhood,

perhaps near a Quaker/Friends, unprogrammed Meeting,

or an Apple Store,

and in a major city (with a culture of learning?) of that language:


Arabic - Tehran/Riyadh/Dubai?,

Chinese (Mandarin) - Beijing, or a beautiful, main city,

English - London/Cambridge?,

French - Paris,

Russian - Moscow/St. Petersburg,

Spanish - Madrid/Barcelona/Mexico City?


All of these will be linked together via the World University and School online bookstore -
http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Bookstore_/_Computer_Store_%28New_%26_Used%29_at_WUaS - which I hope we'll be able to open soon.
