World Univ & Sch

World Univ & Sch will seek to translate CC-4 MIT OCW courses with improving machine translation in developing the following:
- Major online Universities in all ~200 countries accessible from here https://wiki.
- Wiki schools for open teaching & learning planned in 7,117 known living languages - https://wiki.
As WUaS seeks to license with CA's BPPE and than to accredit probably with WASC senior, the free-to-students' CC-4 MIT OpenCourseWare-centric online Bachelor degrees - https://wiki.
Books don't go across languages very readily, partly due to copyright issues, but WUaS plans also to build on MIT OCW's culture of translation into about 10 MIT OCW languages since its beginning - https://en.wikipedia.org/

Thanks to MIT President Rafael Reif and MIT Professor Sanjay Sarma, VP in the Office of Digital Learning, for making possible a 30 minutes' video conversation on Friday, May 1, 2020 per - https://
Thanks too for Sanjay Sarma's email in these regards:
Hi Scott,
Best to email me and not Rafael. He is as you might imagine, flat out. And stay tuned.
-S----------------------------
Sanjay Sarma, 35-206 MIT. 617 253 1925 (T). 617 253 7549 (F).
Assistant: Laura WhiteT: 617.324.7456 E: whitela@MIT.edu

With edX (founded by Harvard and MIT) in about 15-20 languages, and CC-4 MIT OCW in 4 languages currently, - and with Professor Sanjay Sarma's interest in the many languages' focus of World University and School where India has 22 official languages - and in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic, WUaS will seek to explore further a way to expand our WUaS multiple languages' focus, as well as, conceptually, a CC-4 MIT OCW into MITx on edX approach. This may occur by building a platform in collaboration with MIT and Harvard's emerging online course platforms in the midst of coronavirus as they play for their students in the autumn.
WUaS will follow up about possible ways the MIT Office for Digital Learning might be able to bridge something in a new way in these regards, and make something happen collaboration-wise.

In communication with the MIT Office for Digital Learning, World Univ & Sch would seek to explore how working with MIT admissions might function regarding online WUaS students in the autumn (in something like the MIT OCW > MITx on edX platform, conceptually) - Harvard admissions too - for high achieving students, from all ~200 countries, and first in English? Eventually, WUaS would seek to develop especially China World University and School, Russia World University and School, and Iran World University and School, in these regards too. See, https://wiki.
WUaS is seeking to matriculate 500-2,000 undergraduates this autumn in English online from all ~200 countries, for free-to-students' Bachelor degrees that are CC-4 MIT OCW-centric. Students would register, sign up, and apply via - worlduniveristyandschool.org

Regarding money transfer mechanism - for WUaS reimbursements from countries' departments of education, and for donations to 501 c3 WUaS, for example, it's also regarding anticipating a single cryptocurrency (or multiple ones), that I think it has much merit to develop WUaS's own money transfer mechanism (on both wings, way beyond P.P.) - and also in planning for 7.5 billion people.
World Univ & Sch will seek reimbursement of $55,000 per country to begin for any number of potential 4-year undergraduate students to matriculate, and eventually moving toward, - from nation states' departments of education, and depending on countries' GDP - $55,000 per year per student, pegging WUaS reimbursement on MIT's tuition into the future.
(I've been reading many different newspapers online during coronavirus pandemic, and often using Google Translate for the languages I don't know (which machine translation is pretty great these days), and was amazed to see in the Hindustan Times (in New Dehli, India) that MacBooks cost as much as $1,999 in India - which could well inform WUaS seeking a full $55,000 per year per student reimbursement (in some of the developing world), if we could give students all live faculty much of the time, like at MIT / Stanford / Reed College for conference method, etc. Here's the article:
"Apple’s new 13-inch MacBook Pro launch: India price revealed: There are three other variants of the new MacBook Pro that are priced at $1,499 (Rs 1,13,000 approx), $1,799 (Rs 1,36,000 approx) and $1,999 (Rs 1,51,000) approx based on their RAM and storage capacities" - https://www.hindustantimes.
WUaS seeks to add a money transfer mechanism for reimbursements, and as WUaS plans to build code for matriculating students in all ~200 countries' official languages, then also for speakers of all 7,117 known living languages as wiki teachers and learners, and then, conceptually, for each of all 7.5 billion people on the planet (also as wiki learners and teachers) - https://wiki.

World Univ & Sch will continue to develop in all ~200 countries and their official languages with something like, conceptually, MIT OCW into MITx on the edX platform, and with regards, for example, to the beginning Sri Lanka World University and School - https://wiki.
6
Potentially in collaboration with Stanford University and Google / Alphabet - and regarding the WUaS money transfer mechanism in anticipating a single cryptocurrency (or multiple ones), and in planning for 7.5 billion people re UBI experiments - World Univ & Sch was glad to learn in the Stanford Law CodeX presentation by Ivan Lee on May 14, 2020 https://law.stanford.edu/
WUaS was also very glad to learn that Stanford alumnus Ivan Lee's datasaur.ai, drawing on Stanford Law contracts and in creating - "data labeling software for training natural language processing models, including Machine Learning-assisted labeling and workforce management features" - is offering their project for free to universities, - and, again, World Univ & Sch is planning ~200 online universities in countries' main & official languages. Amazing, and thank you!
WUaS Corporation
A
The WUaS Corporation's financial report shows, percentage-wise, nearly a ~200% increase over last month's revenue - but WUaS is seeking to structure the WUaS Corp to return what the S&P 500 stock market index has returned on average per year over the past 90 years, or potentially 11.5% annually.
WUaS seeks also to develop a productive 11.5 % a year very steadily for the next century + and to grow to 2.2 million employees on both wings (e.g. potentially, 1,600,000 as student types working 10 hours/week) perhaps even, and in all 7,117 languages.

B
In the WUaS Corporation planning to develop a payment money transfer mechanism which could work in numerous ways, e.g. for Universal Basic Income (UBI) experiments to facilitate distribution of a single cryptocurrency backed by a large number of ~200 countries' central banks (post Euro in 19 out of 28 nation states) WUaS seeks to plan for digital currency with block chain ledger.
And the WUaS Corp seeks also to list on the emerging Silicon Valley long term stock market, and perhaps with regard to UBI experiments, as WUaS codes for all 7.5 billion people on the planet, (again probably in Wikidata's ~300 languages for something like every wiki WUaS teacher/learner a Wikidata Q-item # or a Wikidata PIN #) and in facilitating a single cryptocurrency. So WUaS seeks to facilitate UBI experiments for all 7.5 billion people in this 'WUaS coding moment' to alleviate poverty, and via distributing single cryptocurrency, with payment money transfer mechanism.
C
The WUaS Corp payment money transfer mechanism will also function in WUaS's bookstores / computer stores / robotic stores, as well as in WUaS hospital technologies' distribution centers, in the 7,117 languages - both on-the-ground and online - and potentially in Quickbooks with "Mine Pi" digital currency too, for example, and in most of all ~200 countries.
