9:50 AM (11 hours ago)

Hi Mwende, Nancy, Larry, Mike, Universitians, All, 

Glad to write that the new Zoom video conferencing is allowing recordings of the WUaS News and Q&As to be saved - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2022/01/northern-spotted-owl-strix-occidentalis.html - (eg to my hard drive, and then uploaded to a blog for example) and you'll find this first WUaS News & Q&A for 1/10/22 in this blog post. 

And Universitians, and All: Thanks so much for your emails, Mwende. I edited your email about Cameroon ,and studying at WUaS for credit for free 4 year Bachelor's degree, a bit for clarity - and added it to the WUaS Agenda and News on 1/15/22 at 9am Pacific Time, which I think is 6pm Cameroon time. I think too I'd like at WUAS to focus further on play in learning to code with the Python Programming language (and with Lego Spike Prime robotics' kits), but not leave out ocw.mit.edu of the learning process. 


For your interest: CC-4 OCW.MIT.EDU -centric wiki World University and School Agenda and News for 1/15/22 -

http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2022/01/sequoia-sempervirens-coast-redwood.html


Larry, Nancy, Mike, and others who may be interested or planning to join the conversation this 1/15/22: WUaS Monthly Business Meeting which is open and an hour long meets this Saturday at 9am Pacific Time, and is conducted loosely in the manner of Friends, and this month's Agenda is full, and it will likely be a kind of 'lightning' monthly business meeting too (please glance through it beforehand so we can 'riff' together as we explore),

I may add another Agenda item about all ~22 official languages in India and WUaS plans to create wiki schools in each of these, and probably for online free university and high school degrees too, which you'll find here -  https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2022/01/blog-post.html (and more).  

Cheers, 

Scott

Thank you Mr Scott for your support.

As far as Scratch is concerned, if it is not going to affect my results then there is no problem.

For the past 6 years, Cameroon has been going through a series of crises in which the English speaking regions are trying to secede from the French speaking part due to marginalization but the Government is against it hence the wars, the internally displaced and many issues emanating from the crises. That means, even if people are willing to go in for a free Bachelors degree, there is no guarantee of having a stable internet connection and even stable electricity reason why people are not showing enough interest in this program for now but once I'll be done with the "Certificate (Degree)" and the skills they will have more reasons to follow suit. I am doing everything possible to complete this program and I will even love to take the 5 years masters degree if possible as it will boost my country men to see reasons to adopting it and even integrating it as a part of the educational system.

For the mean time, I am very focused on completing this program and using the skills as proof the churn in more people, in Africa, the best evidence is success hence until you've made it you can hardly convince people about anything.

With your support, we will make it happen.

Thanky once more,


Best Regards,

Mwende Evande.



Mwende,

Thanks for the information and news about Cameroon too. Glad both the CC-4 'CS First with Google at World University and School' course and for example this half-length CC-4 licensed "Introduction to Computer Science and Programming in Python" - 

https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/electrical-engineering-and-computer-science/6-0001-introduction-to-computer-science-and-programming-in-python-fall-2016/ - have thought through questions of situations where internet connection is not working at times. THE CS FIRST class would be worth 3 credit units upon completion of the course, and the "Introduction to Computer Science and Programming in Python" would be worth 1.5 credit units, and could be followed with its companion course 

https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/electrical-engineering-and-computer-science/6-0002-introduction-to-computational-thinking-and-data-science-fall-2016/ for another 1.5 credit units. 


All toward a CS MAJOR re WUaS distribution requirements.

Am wondering if the Lego Spike Prime Robotics' Kit will come to interoperate with the Python language courses at MIT OCW. If so, I am wondering how you could get this kit from the WUaS Educational Services' Bookstore and Robot Store. 

Lego Robotics towards an Engineering MINOR for you, Mwende, at OCW Courses' WUaS for your 4 years' 120 Unit Bach degree?

WUaS is thinking about micro-credentialing along the way to a 4 years' 120 credit unit WUAS Bachelor's degree, so a certificate of completion for this "CS FIRST WITH GOOGLE AT WUAS" . . .  IS POSSIBLE.

Please let me know.

Best wishes,

Scott

from text chat and Twitter:

Scott:
Thanks, Elinor & great! What role could a #FilmTo3D App play for #ForwardGenomics in particular, at the #StreetView, cellular & molecular levels for genetic data gathering (to  be added to #GoogleStreetView, Maps, Earth, #TensorFlowAI & with #RealisticAvatarBots for #Phenotypes)?

Elinor:
I’m not totally sure what this means, but it sounds very exciting! A higher level answer is that I think we are ... definitely going to need to leverage new tech to do forward genomics well

Scott:
Elinor, further regarding the Dog-Bird Google search images for hybridization you shared,  how could an #ActualVirtual #PhysicalDigital single #RealisticVirtualEarthForGenetics facilitate a helpful array of genetic tools, to facilitate such genetic experiments and regarding too this Bird-Axolotl hybrid - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2021/03/olympic-national-park-axolotl.html ?

Brainstorming-wise, Elinor, to reply to your reply (thanks), it would mean taking these chemical bond pictures - https://twitter.com/doescience/status/1448110999182221317?s=20 - from Princeton & UT Austin into 3D and in a realistic virtual earth for STEM so one could begin to work with these virtual objects as they informed genetics too, and as they interacted with each other (thanks to a #FilmTo3D App). Thanks.
