Hi M,

I'm glad to have gone to the Stanford Innovations in Medical Education conference on Saturday which B facilitated by pinning this Tweet to the top of her Twitter feed - https://twitter.com/GSEC_Surgery/status/859495580409634816 and to have heard Carla Pugh MD Ph.D - https://twitter.com/GSEC_Surgery/status/863426393366855680

Met the great and open Stanford professor and Emergency Medicine doctor ...

Sarah R Williams MD
Stanford cool-aid 

Interesting bio ...

Bio

Sarah R. Williams, MD, FACEP is the Program Director for the Emergency Medicine Residency and oversees the educational curriculum for the residents. She has been on faculty at Stanford since 2000 and has the rank of Clinical Associate Professor. Sarah went to Cal as an undergrad (Go Bears!) and then started drinking the Stanford cool-aid, going to medical school here, the EM residency from 1997-2000, and the chief residency in 2000-2001. 
What is this Stanford cool-aid?

Stanford cool-aid as culture, or counterculture even {and informed too by entheogenic explorations at Stanford in the 1960s/70s}? For me, "Stanford cool-aid" includes its empathic smarts of many many individuals, its academic excellence, as well as California laid backness ... and what Stanford learned from the 1960s and 1970s as a great university with a lot of hippy high achieving thinkers, and coders ... all of which is now in the "fabric of its life" ... Stanford is such a pleasurable university to be a part of, partly because of this ...

Dear K, S, G, D and J,

Thanks so much for your email asking how you could support concretely World University and School, and developing the Ph.D. program. WUaS is currently developing our free CC MIT OCW-centric undergraduate Bachelor's degree program planned to begin this autumn - and seeking to develop newly out of CC MIT OCW in MITx - https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/mitx-related-courseware/. 

I'll be talking with the Head of Strategic Relationships at MIT's Office of Digital Learning on Wednesday partly about sub-licensing for CC WUaS to use their CC MIT OCW in MITx toward WUaS degrees and in multiple countries' languages (plus much else), so I'll be able to share after this (http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2017/05/el-avila-national-park-potential-mit.html), but part of this process would involve developing approaches to translating CC MIT OCW into German (since this would benefit German speakers and Germany, for example, with new curriculum/courses) per - https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/translated-courses/ - and its open CC licensing, at the bottom. Based on the initial CC MIT OCW courses translated, which could then possibly be added to MITx (but also used as WUaS has planned all along - with graduate students learning to become faculty teaching sections to the MIT faculty in video), further developing the Ph.D. program in German would emerge from this. 

With time, and if possible, WUaS would like to compare how matriculated students learn, inter-lingually, in STEM / All subjects, so while no perfect translation of CC MIT OCW seems possible to me (given the limitations of translating books, for example), developing programs that would allow for correspondences for study of how students learn between MIT Ph.D. degree programs in English, and MIT Ph.D. programs in German, at WUaS would be part of this process. For planning purposes here, MIT may offer about 31 majors with Ph.D.s - https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/find-by-department/ - and WUaS would also seek to develop correspondences here with MIT (although WUaS is a separate university, engaging MIT OCW's CC licensing), with the possibility of adding cameras in MIT classrooms of specific current courses, for example. 

What is the possible scope of your concretely supporting developing the Ph.D. program in German re World University and School, and re IBM, as well? 

This would be a most fascinating project, and enormously beneficial for WUaS in multiple languages, as well as prospective matriculating students. 

Best regards,
Scott

As I drove into the Stanford along the main front Palm Drive, to the Stanford innovations in Medical Education on Saturday around 7 am, I was surprised and glad to see many tents pitched to one side. 

 I later learned that it was the Stanford Powwow ... 

Wow ~Stanford Powwow on Saturday (46th) - Elders, Dancers - tents pitched in front - http://powwow.stanford.edu - http://events.stanford.edu/events/685/68547/ (SAIO) …

The Stanford American Indian Organization (SAIO) and the Stanford Powwow Planning Committee will host the 46th Annual Stanford Powwow on May 12-14th, 2017 on the Stanford University campus. The Powwow will be held in the Eucalyptus Grove at Galvez and Campus Drives. The Stanford Powwow is open to the public and overnight camping spaces are available. Donations for parking and camping are welcome. There is no pre-registration, and registration is done on a first come, first served, basis. However, there should be plenty of room for anyone who wants to camp. Also, no personal tents or canopies are allowed on the powwow grounds until 3pm on Friday. This gives our facilities team adequate time to set up.

Hippies (and at Stanford perhaps still today) can be a bit American Indian ...
