Hi P and K, 

Great to talk with you today, K, and nice to e-meet you P here. 

World University and School would like to create online CC MIT OCW-centric, potentially Project-Based Learning online I.B. degrees - in most countries' main languages in the next few years.

This would include both WUaS growing this as a wiki emerging out of Wikidata/Wikibase (CC Wikipedia's database developing with machine learning, machine translation and A.I. - in 358 languages currently) but also engaging Google Education on Air (which this email address is in). High school students would be able to study for their I.B. high school diplomas from the comfort of the their own homes in all countries (and in their own languages) in the world, and interact with their cohort and with teachers in group video, such as Google group video Hangouts, and MIT UnHangouts. 

For planning purposes, here's the I.B. wiki subject at WUaS - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/WUaS_International_Baccalaureate_Diploma_and_Programme - which CC MIT OCW-centric (in seven languages) and CC Yale OYC-centric World University and School is planning to develop as I.B. high schools in all countries' main and official languages. 

Because of the Creative Commons' licensing, and that the following MIT OCW high school (https://ocw.mit.edu/high-school/) and MIT OCW scholar (https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/ocw-scholar/) resources are MIT, and that the WUaS I.B. degree (planned first in English, Chinese and Spanish) would feed into MIT OCW-centric undergraduate degrees and graduate degrees themselves (in their 7 languages) at WUaS, WUaS would like to build on these MIT OCW resources for our online I.B. high schools in multiple countries' languages. (WUaS also seeks to accredit with WASC senior here in California). 

WUaS seeks to become the Harvard / MIT of the internet in all countries' languages offering CC Bachelor, Ph.D., law and M.D. degrees as well as I.B. diplomas. 

Would you and K be interested in forming a team to develop a MIT OCW-centric online I.B. degree, first in English, but extensible into many languages, (and potentially accrediting in their countries) which WUaS might further facilitate? 

If you have the time, P, let's schedule a phone conversation - what might be good times for you for this, if you are available?

Great to talk with you, K - and thanks for the inspiration re transforming education! 

All the best, 

Scott

Hi P and K, 

WUaS had an extended email communication with Cecilia (Cec) d'Oliveira, MIT Associate Dean of Digital Learning, this spring further clarifying how MIT OCW's Creative Commons' licensing works, - in part that WUaS can "share" and "adapt" it (e.g. add it to Wikdiata), but that's it's also a non-commercial license, for example. 

All the best, 

Scott
