Dear Farhaj, Ahmad, Abdullah, Sid, all, 

Very nice to meet all of you and talk together over chess at Bucknell University yesterday. 

Just created a new Urdu language wiki subject page - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Urdu_language -  at MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch, not yet in Urdu itself, but which is planned. 
 
Added this summary in the WUaS Miraheze MediaWiki as I created it - 
"Created a new Urdu language wiki school / subject planned in Urdu ... and for MIT OCW-centric wiki Pakistan World Univ & Sch toward online free degrees"

I also added my daily blog post with an Urdu language focus to this Urdu language wiki school, and to the Pakistan World Univ & Sch - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Pakistan - using this citation practice, Last Name, Date/Year, [URL if there is one, title] etc... : 


"MacLeod, Scott GK. 2023. [https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2023/11/lotus-mo-national-flower-of-macau-new.html Lotus (MO - National flower of Macau): New Bucknell University Urdu language speaking friends originally from Pakistan, in Computer Science, Computer Engineering and Mechanical Engineering]. November 4. Montoursville, PA: scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2023/11/lotus-mo-national-flower-of-macau-new.html."

MIT OCW translated courses presently are these - http://ocw.abu.edu.ng/courses/translated-courses/ - and I don't ever think any organization has translated MIT OCW into Urdu, although MIT OCW has been translated into about 10 -15 languages so far, since around 2000.

Farhaj, brainstorming-wise, would you like to translate a MIT OCW course, such as Introduction to Computer Science for undergraduates (eg https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/6-0001-introduction-to-computer-science-and-programming-in-python-fall-2016/) into Urdu regarding a possible internship project, and if WUaS could hire you eventually? But possibly in a brand new way, and into a kind of format such as with "CS First with Google at WUaS" possibly On a GOOGLE PLATFORM (LIKE https://csfirst.withgoogle.com/s/en/home) ... and for first year undergraduates in Pakistan from their homes learning CS? 

I looked up Bucknell accreditation and they are accredited with MSCHE - https://www.bucknell.edu/azdirectory/office-institutional-research-analytics/accreditation - as MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch is seeking to become. 

Here again are some related World Univ & Sch schools not yet in Urdu - 

(from https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Nation_States







And here's the Realistic Virtual Earth idea from a WUaS News and Q&A when I was still living in Canyon 94516 near Berkeley in March of 2020 at the beginning of the CoronaVirus pandemic - https://www.youtube.com/live/OEC0w8sW93M (with Grateful Dead rock and roll playing in the beginning, re the Dead playing in Davis Gym at Bucknell in 1971).

2 further possible internship directions -

1
Develop a 
Realistic Virtual Harbin  - coming into communication in the URDU language with Sajjad Wynne possibly still the CEO of Harbin Hot Springs for data and from Harbin Pubs or Harbin Publications (a kind of obscure Archive in Middletown CA) - and for online visitors entrepreneurial ?? 

And here's the Harbin Gate House in Google Street View with time slider (and check out the years; 2007 and 2012 in the "See more dates" on a laptop in the top left to see how a Realistic Virtual Earth for history even could work ... and I've added some pictures for example to the left)
https://goo.gl/maps/7gSsSTweRCBo9gf87 ~ https://twitter.com/HarbinBook ~ http://bit.ly/HarbinBook ~) ... and 'walk' down the road a spell toward Middletown California 4 miles away to see further this emerging realistic virtual earth. One can't 'go into' Harbin or up to the virtual pool area yet ... since the Harbin property is behind an invisible barrier (try :)

Brainstorming-wise, and entrepreneurially regarding what we talked about yesterday, could you help create a realistic virtual Harbin (for STEAM research too) people from around the world would pay something to get into ... including a bookstore even (as the beginning of WUaS Educational Services' STores for books, computers, robotics, hospital technologies, groceries and cafes, too, and RETAIL ) ... and in working with Google? 



2
Develop Pakistan Works Univ & Sch in the Urdu language for Pakistanis in Pakistan & around the world and generate a sizable undergraduate class from Pakistan for free MIT OCW -centric WUaS undergraduate degrees, as WUaS accredits and seek reimbursement from the departments of Education in Pakistan ? 


Also, I just found this - 

Google establishes liaison office in country (Pakistan) 
December 10, 2022
Google has registered itself with the Security Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP) and established its liaison office in the country 

in Karachi 



Also, you'll find my good friend Reed college friend, Tim Lenderking, cited on this MIT OCW-centric Pakistan World Univ & Sch page - and he was something like No 2 in Pakistan in the US state department some years ago; also, perhaps my best friend from high school Sid Mazumdar and his younger brother Partha Mazumdar, both in the US government too, could help in growing Pakistan World Univ & Sch in Urdu in the future as well - and regarding internships. 

Stanford Mine Pi cryptocurrency free money daily invitation below, and please avail yourselves of it, and let your friends in Pakistan know too.

All the best, great to meet you, more later, 
Scott

Bucknell Robotics? - Michael McLain - & Qs about Realistic Virtual Earth for History, and regarding... Lego Spike Prime Robotics' kits from the WUaS Educational Educational Services' Stores for the Bucknell Library? 

Dear Michael, 

Greetings, and nice to talk with you again just now.

Thanks for your help the other day on Tu Oct 31, 2023 when I asked about adding for example April 14, 1971 Grateful Dead Concert Bucknell Library resources, brainstorming-wise, to a Realistic Virtual Earth for History (think Google Street View with time slider). I had a helpful conversation with another Bucknell university librarian (and here is some about our communication - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2023/11/neroli-viviparum-lily-li-national.html). I also think I just saw you walk by in the stacks 2 evenings ago. 

As I mentioned, I noticed that you have a focus on Bucknell Board Games https://researchbysubject.bucknell.edu/michael too. And I wonder too, again - with all the pieces in Board Games  especially and regarding lending - whether the Bucknell Library has any Lego Robotics' kits for lending, out of curiosity, such as Lego Spike Prime. Thanks for pointing out the Lego blocks in the relaxation center, and letting me know about Bucknell Libraries approaches to pieces. (Do you make Chess Board games available for "Chess & Chill" by any chance - https://campus.bucknell.edu/campus_guest/calendar/detail?feed=events___all_upcoming_events&startdate=2023-11-03T00%3A00%3A00&id=d9db72fb-5c22-5e8f-bd12-a7cb8f594c89 )?


Further, and regarding Lego Robotics' kits, such as Lego Spike Prime, and potentially also Bucknell students being able to learn computer programming by playing - eg with the free Scratch programming language (and see the free CC-4 licensed "CS First with Google at World Univ & Sch" programming course - https://csfirst.withgoogle.com/s/en/home - learning the Scratch programming language) and which interoperate with Lego Robotics, how might Bucknell Libraries make one or 2 Lego Spike Prime Robotics' kits available to Bucknell students for borrowing - and not only to play with robotics, relaxation corner-wise, but also to play programming wise, and for relaxation too?"


CC-4 licensed MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch, - toward free online Bachelor, PhD, Law, MD, IB high school, AA and Master's degrees from home - of which I'm the founder, and president, has a focus on WUaS Home Robotics in engineering majors and related, - and WUaS is also an authorized reseller of 3 Lego Robotics' kits - http://worlduniversityandschool.org/AcademicPress.html - but having not sold any to date (and as World Univ & Sch accredits with MSCHE with offices in the greater Philadelphia area, and licenses with the state of PA's department of education, for which WUaS has the green lights). I noticed also while searching "Board Games" and "Lego Robotics" here - https://researchbysubject.bucknell.edu/ - that books come up for both, but wonder whether the Bucknell Library might be interested in some Lego Spike Prime Lego Robotics kits? Might Bucknell Library be interested in lending these to Bucknell students? How to engage Bucknell students further with these potentially? Add a Lego Robotics' kits play time to parallel the Chess & Chill get togethers for Bucknell students possibly? 

(With WUaS as an authorized reseller of Lego Robotics' kits, I've also been reaching out to the Union county and Lycoming county library systems in these regards - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2023/10/asian-spruce-kz-national-flower-of.html (but which might take some time for related developments) - and wonder if we might talk about Bucknell University Bertrand Library Lego Robotics' kits at some point. 

Looking forward to staying in touch about some of this with time. 


Best wishes, Scott
