Shahrzad,

Here's the beginning of an online, Creative Commons' licensed, MIT OCW-centric, wiki, Iranian university and school (http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Iran_(Islamic_Republic_of)) at WUaS in Arabic and Persian (as well as in English). And here are the MIT OCW courses in Persian - http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/translated-courses/persian/ ...



Scott,
these poor kids don't even have access to computer! There is no personal computer or high speed internet to use. They might not even know how to use internet! How can we expect them to use these online educational links? They have not even heard about these names!



Hi Shahrzad,

Thanks. The internet is in every country, and the developing world has mobile smart phones with internet access. WUaS has making broadband (http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/WUaS_Broadband_Development) access for educational degrees widespread as part of its mission (eventually, but a long way out). And WUaS will gladly work with One Laptop Per Child (http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/One_Laptop_per_Child_-_XO_Laptop_-_$100_Laptop_-_MIT - or similar) in the future, and make low cost computers available in WUaS's online computer store. While I know what you're saying, it's amazing how far the internet and computers have reached the poor, and disadvantaged peoples and I think we'll see this grow significantly over upcoming decades; I'll post examples to WUaS as I find specific great ones. It's how to broaden and extend these for productive educational purposes that are interesting questions. MIT's Nicholas Negroponte suggests kids figure out how to use computers through access and playing. Thanks for your observations. Scott
