Precocial: Minutes for Sat Aug 11, 2018 World University & School Monthly Business Meeting



Minutes for Sat Aug 11, 2018 World University & School Monthly Business Meeting


Present:
-       Larry Viehland (Chair, CFO and Board member of World University and School)
-       Scott MacLeod (President, Recording Clerk, Board member, and Founder, World University and School)


Minutes:




A

World University and School is postponing seeking our 2nd matriculating undergraduate class - and aiming to matriculate a class of 100 - 500 online undergraduates in January 2019 at accrediting WUaS.


WUaS will seek to define approaches to taking MIT OCW as independent study courses, in working toward degrees, by submitting work to WUaS. WUaS will scale this process large, and in many languages, later with our developing platform, for example here - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Subjects - or here - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Courses, or in Google Education.



B

Accreditation

WUaS is waiting to hear back from the state of California's BPPE re definition of a private educational institution (which is that students pay tuition) and our World University and School's Creative Commons-4 licensed MIT OCW-centricity which means that WUaS can't ask for tuition from students (since CC-4 licensing says we can A) share, B) adapt but C) non-commercially). And WUaS seeks to accredit with the state of California's BPPE (Bureau of Private Postsecondary Education), and concurrently with WASC senior, - so WUaS seeks to inquire if BBPE can add an amendment to their regulation, allowing for CC-4 WUaS to offer online CC-4 OCW for credit and for online related online degrees for free-to-students as a private educational institution. WUaS would thus not, and can't, ask for tuition from students, - such that Californians (and potentially students in all ~200 countries) will take MIT OCW-centric online classes and earn degrees that are free-to-students, (again in CA and around the world - via World University and School). Other CC-4 OCW-centric universities could do this too. Free-to-students’ CC-4 MIT OCW-centric online degrees, eventually in their 5 languages, and many more!



C

National Science Foundation grant

WUaS is waiting to hear back from the state of California’s Bureau of Private Postsecondary Education (BPPE) as we wait to hear about a pending NSF grant.



D

WUaS online Medical Schools


World University and School is in very early communication with Dr. Honor Hsin MD at Stanford Medicine re WUaS online Medical Schools, online teaching hospitals for online clinical care, and re also a realistic virtual earth at the cellular and atomic levels too (think Google Street View+ / Earth / TensorFlow / Translate)
