Here's a recent update on World Univ & Sch's accreditation developments - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2018/08/yeti-crab-universitian-news-im-glad-to.html . The non-commercial attribute of CC-4 MIT OpenCourseWare licensing will be relevant here re BPPE accreditation.  


B
World University and School's Annual Meeting is in October (2nd Saturday of the month at 9am PT), and electronically mediated.


C
Information Technology (IT) 'platform'  updates


i
WUaS will seek again to explore collaboration with edX (founded by MITx and HarvardX) and re:

"MITx Courses and Related OCW Courseware: OCW and MITx Are Complementary"



ii
WUaS Templates and Wikidata / Wikibase 

Upcoming meeting on Tuesday, September 11th 
Seeking to connect WUaS's relatively new (2017) "front end" eg these wiki Subject pages - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Subjects - via Templates - with our "back end" the Wikidata/Wikibase structured knowledge database, WUaS having donated ourselves from co-development to Wikidata in 2015, in its ~300 languages. 

iii
WUaS seeks to build / develop in all Assistive Technologies 'under the sun' - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Assistive_Technologies 

including engaging voice, brain wave headsets, (Lego) robotics, programming languages (like the Scratch drag and drop programming language), and in all ~7097 living languages + after we've connected our "front end" above with  our "back end" Wikidata/Wikibase in its ~300 languages.

In these regards, WUaS met with an Intuit senior project manager, Intuit Accessibility Lead, again recently at a MeetUp in the SF Bay Area.

See, too - 
'Brain_Computer_Interface' wiki subject page at MIT OCW-centric World University and School - 

There are also 'Peace and Social Justice," "Engineering," "Robotics,"  "Assistive Technologies," and banking / finance wiki WUaS subjects here - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Subjects - with much OpenCourseWare eventually for academic credit, as well.  

iv
WUaS also seeks to facilitate a Realistic Virtual Earth as IT platform, and eventually for things like tele-robotic surgery, for example 
See: 
"In this "LEGO Bits and Bricks-Intro Video" https://youtu.be/kMdx3ozvUT4  I can see a Harbin warm pool for #RealisticVirtualEarth #RealisticVirtualHarbin #ActualVirtual #PhysicalDigital DIRECT CORRESPONDENCE & re Lego Robotics INTO BRICK STREET VIEW (so Google Street View with TIME SLIDER) at cellular/atomic levels"

D
World University and School's online Medical Schools, and online Teaching Hospitals planned for online clinical care in each of ~200 nation states' official / main languages

Wikidata Medicine - met with medical student - and re computational medicine - Houccemeddine Turki, with him in Tunisia, and with bioengineer Nancy Gertrudiz in Mexico on Saturday, August 18, 2018 - in a Skype video conference meeting. The potential for online medicine in the 26-27 nation states where Arabic is the official language, and to help people with medical education is enormous. 

[Wiki-Medicine] Invitation to discuss RiskData:, Wikidata as a high-scale [sic] database of risk factors for human diseases

Dear Houcemeddine and Nancy,

Thank you so much for talking today. 

You'll find here videos by Google's Project Baseline Chief Medical Officer, Jessica Mega, and Project ECHO's Sanjiv Arora - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2018/08/jasminum-sambac-stanford-digital-health.html - in addition to some Stanford Medicine related resources. There are other different videos about Projects Baseline and Echo in my blog, if you look. 

And here are the 'Arabic' label in my blog - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/Arabic - and the 'Spanish' label - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/Spanish - as well as the 'medicine' and 'Medical Schools; labels - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/medicine and https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/Medical%20Schools - all of which are worth reading through, with regard to what we talked about today as well. (See, too the 'surgery' label as well as the 'robotics' label, plus the 'information technology' and 'virtual world' labels).

Looking forward to staying in touch as the Wikidata risk factors' project, and with regards to languages too, develops. 

Thank you again.

Best regards, Scott

In seeking to become the Harvard / MIT / Stanford / Oxbridge / University of California (& re its 10 campuses +) of the Internet, and in all ~200 countries' official and main languages, and in all 7,097 living languages as wiki schools, World Univ & Sch will begin to plan how to engage university rankings online. 

See, in these regards:  
"MIT named No. 2 university worldwide for the Arts and Humanities"

WUaS which is CC-4 MIT OCW-centric in its 5 languages seeks too to offer free-to-students' online degrees in all ~200 countries' main languages too.

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




WUaS Press / Corp

WUaS Co seeks to create massive numbers of jobs in on-the-ground 'IKEA' - like Bookstores / Computer stores / Robotics' stores / Hospital Technologies' stores or much bigger (2.2 million jobs+?) - with languages (building on Wikidata's ~300 languages) - and in Africa, and in all ~200 countries (both online and on-the-ground jobs).

IT platforms 

For bookstore / computer / robotics / digital objects / hospital technologies' inventory - CC-0 Wikidata / Wikicite - in its 300 languages? (where Creative Commons' Zero licensing is licensed commercially).
