How to get a world-class education for free on the internet

1 Two World Univ & Sch wings are amazing, great, online universities' opportunities. WUaS seeks to develop first the non-profit World University and School, and potentially in Google for Non-profits as platform, - and as we seek funding to license with state of CA's BPPE for Bachelor and Ph.D. degrees, and then concurrently accredit with WASC senior. This will involve building out of best STEM CC-4 OpenCourseWare's ~2500 courses in English, with these initial six majors in the course catalog - https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1VRHhXYsk-V9lvSh5onaU2hnEhwoapSN7HyBK1P09LIk/edit?usp=sharing (accessible from http://worlduniversityandschool.org/). WUaS is seeking our 2nd undergraduate matriculating class at licensing and accrediting WUaS as we begin to develop the World Univ & Sch platform further.  Some of these will potentially be German Abitur Gymnasium (university bound high school) student graduates interested in studying online in English for this WUaS free-to-students' university degrees.
1a - 14 WUaS planned revenue streams - https://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2016/01/14-planned-wuas-revenue-streams.html .



2 The "Monday World Univ & Sch News and Q & A sessions at 10 am PT" are now happening newly in StreamYard video conferencing which records to YouTube -  https://youtube.com/user/WorldUnivandSch (since Google's Live Hangouts on Air closed on August 2, 2019). Here's one of the first of these - "World Univ & Sch News and Q & A in StreamYard - 8/12/19" ...

Re Google Meet video conferencing software: Since World Univ & Sch is in Google Education, and while Google Meet video conferencing software also looks great, it doesn't record to Youtube for free Google Education users like WUaS.

WUaS also still hasn't seen whether something like the new Google Meet - and with 5G - will become the basis for real, real time music-making - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Musical_Jamming (e.g. in the https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/World_University_Music_School) - and for real, real time tele-robotic surgery in World Univ & Sch's online teaching hospitals - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Hospital - in WUaS's planned medical schools - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/World_University_Medical_School.

WUaS continues to be both Google architecture-centric in general, as well as Wikidata-centric in its ~300 languages, as we develop further.



3 World University and School seeks to begin building a team of high achievers, students, researchers, faculty - like at Harvard Law's https://cyber.harvard.edu/ BKC - https://mailchi.mp/cyber/the-buzz-504601?e=d21d1ecc31 - for example, and for this need monies. Please contact WUaS Chair of Board Larry Viehland at viehland@chatham.edu, or the president of WUaS Scott MacLeod at sgkmacleod@worlduniversityandschool.org to collaborate, talk further or donate monies to 501 (c) 3 World University and School - https://guidestar.org/profile/27-3105368. WUaS is seeking funds in particular to license with CA's BPPE and then for accreditation.



4 Thank you to Peter Bothe for very great updates to both of WUaS's Logos as independent entities: to A) 501 c 3 World Univ & Sch, and B) the for profit general stock company the WUaS Corporation (both planned in ~200 countries and in 7,111 known living languages). And for creating some new designs as well. These new designs look fantastic!



5 World Univ & Sch is seeking an information technology team to help code WUaS newly in Google Sites+ and in Wikibase / Wikidata. Part of this process will likely involve beginning to code for the WUaS Corp / Press's online bookstore, computer store, robotics' store, hospital technologies' store + (see 14 planned revenue streams above).



6 The WUaS Press - https://twitter.com/WUaSPress (as distinct from https://twitter.com/WorldUnivAndSch) - will publish its 4th book this autumn, and is planned with machine translation of all 7,111 known living languages for STEM, humanities and poetry.

Here are the first 3 WUaS Press books (available from - https://amazon.com/author/scottmacleodworlduniversity)

"Winding Road Rainbow: Harbin, Wandering & the Poetry of Loving Bliss" ('18) 978-0-578-43518-3

"Haiku-ish & Other Loving Hippy Harbin Poetry" ('17)

"Naked Harbin Ethnography: Hippies, Warm Pools, Counterculture, Clothing-Optionality & Virtual Harbin" ('16)
