Toco toucan: Stanford - Elizabeth Gunderson: "The development of mathematical cognition and motivation" * * * Stanford Law CodeX - Jan 10, 2019: Legal Technologists: Jordan Urstadt, (Prof. Damares Medina in Portugal), Eduardo ... in Brazil, Danielle Benecke (from Australia) * * * Stanford - Mailis Reps, Minister of Education and Research of the Republic of Estonia


Roland, Damares, Danielle, Jordan, Eduardo, and Wonjun, 

Thanks so much for your excellent Stanford Law CodeX presentations today, very nice to meet you, and sorry you had technical difficulties, Damares, 

Let's stay in touch too about online CC-4 MIT OpenCourseWare-centric wiki World University and School Law Schools in all ~200 countries' official and main languages (hopefully emerging out Stanford Law, since MIT doesn't have a law school from which to generate CC-4 OCW). 

Danielle and I were talking afterward about courses for law students toward law degrees - with which a global firm like BakerMacKenzie might be interested in hiring in the countries' where its geo-located - e.g. in The Netherlands (in Dutch), Canada, Australia, Germany (in German), Ireland, the USA etc. re her presentation on future law and machine learning law 4-6 years ahead - "legal innovation strategy focuses on the use of client-centered design methods to completely re-imagine services, as well as strategic investment in technology."  She suggested a course like "Design Thinking" (in multiple languages re WUaS), and perhaps Stanford Law CodeX itself could be developed further as a course in multiple languages. 

Jordan, re transactions and payments and my single cryptocurrency question post-Euro, World Univ & Sch is also seeking to explore coding legally and CS-wise for a single cryptocurrency with blockchain ledger backed by ~200 countries' central banks, in each of ~200 countries' official languages, if possible. WUaS is paying attention to MIT Digital Currency initiative's Director Neha Narula in these regards - and is a little in communication with the former Prime Minister of Italy, Matteo Renzi (who spoke at Stanford recently) about this too - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/01/kadupul-flower-dutchmans-pipe-cactus.html . You'll find here MIT DCI's Neha Narula talking on a panel in the last hour or so of recent day-long MIT Blockchain with Robotic Systems' conference - some about cryptocurrency with blockchain questions .... https://youtu.be/OcSYWWuO6rU (accessible from https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/01/browne-grandiceps-stanford-future-of.html). 

You'll also find below some of the beginning WUaS law schools, not yet connected with Wikidata / Wikibase which is Wikipedia's structured knowledge database in ~300 languages. 

Glad World University and School will likely begin to accredit with the state of California's Bureau of Private Postsecondary Education in February for free-to-students' online Bachelor, Ph.D., law, and M.D. as well as I.B. high school degrees, first in English and then planned in ~200 countries' languages. Online accrediting law degrees will hopefully out of from California first as well in these regards. 

(Here too is part of the email I just sent to Stanford student Wongjun, who's interested in studying for a law degree in Korea, for further info about how WUaS works:

"Please check out ... 
Best regards, Scott")

Let's explore something like this in Brazil in Portuguese as well, Damares & Eduardo - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Brazil and https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Portuguese_language.

Thanks again, Roland, Damares, Danielle, Jordan, Eduardo, and Wonjun, for your great CodeX talks today. 

Best regards, 
Scott

Dear Liz, 

Thanks so much for your rigorous experimentalism and your great studies and research which you presented today at Stanford: "Stanford Colloquium, Elizabeth Gunderson, Temple University - The development of mathematical cognition and motivation" ... https://events.stanford.edu/events/815/81539/ .

In keeping in touch, I'm curious, conceptually, how we might explore focusing your experimentation and studies in a digital environment, and even inter-lingually and in some of all ~200 countries' main languages (for example, in Google group video Hangouts), and possibly to add parallel sample sizes in some or many or these in other languages / cultural discourses / milieus. I ask this in the context of developing CC-4 MIT OpenCourseWare-centric World University and School in all ~200 countries' languages, (and indeed in all 7,097 living languages, eventually, as wiki schools for open teaching and learning+) - with an experimentation - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Experimentationhttps://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Research - research focus, around MIT OCW in its 5 languages. Check out the MIT OCW on these pages to get an idea of how WUaS is structured, where these courses will eventually be for online credit for free-to-students' online degrees (Bachelor, Ph.D., Law and M.D. as well as I.B. in all ~200 countries' official languages +). So part of my question, is how, conceptually, might your research scale and possibly with machine learning, such as by developing experimental approaches from your studies thus far further with the assistance of Google's TensorFlow, and multi-lingually. 

In addition, re my question about mental transformation and learning vis-a-vis number lines and learning ("that mental transformation skill is a specific predictor of growth in number line estimation skill, over and above other spatial skills" and with the images you showed), and the possibility of incorporating something like Tan Le's brainwave headset, which you'll find here - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2013/01/flower-coral-brainfingers-hands-free.html - (and of there are many of these), I wonder how we might, conceptually, simply add such a brain wave headset into your studies, but also how the neuroscience of these processes could further examined experimentally and in conversation with your studies. 

See, too - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Brain_and_Cognitive_Sciences and https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Neurobiology - which will develop as we add these "front end" wiki subject pages to Wikidata / Wikibase as a "back end" (and which is Wikipedia's "back end" too in its ~300 languages). 

As a third question, how wonder how a kind of "relaxation response" (meditation in Asian countries? ... per Herbert Benson MD's 1972 book of this name) as a response to anxiety (math anxiety too) could be measured and factored into your studies, conceptually, with brain wave headsets, and in a digital environment, in ways that it might not be in physical on-the-ground classrooms. 

(I noticed too that your colleague Liesje Spaepen was a key author in a 2018 paper - "Meaning before order: Cardinal principle knowledge predicts improvement in understanding the successor principle and exact ordering" - with you https://scholar.google.com/citations?hl=en&user=Vm9ZbxoAAAAJ - which could add a multiple language approach conceptually to your studies since she's multi-lingual (https://www.linkedin.com/in/elizabet-liesje-spaepen-15b451a7/) . Might we even explore inviting her into this budding conversation as well? There's a lot of innovative and creative scientific potential in such relatively new approaches to online research - and, conceptually too, and especially re multi-lingual MIT OCW-centric World University and School.  

(Incidentally, I lived in Hamden / New Haven, CT, growing up, and in Cambridge, MA, before that too; my father was on the medical faculty at Yale, and was doing his residency in Boston). 

Very nice to meet and talk with you afterward, Liz, albeit briefly, and thanks so much for your fascinating and excellent talk. Looking forward to staying in touch (and re the above "brainstorming" as well). Thank you.

Best regards, 
Scott

Dear Mailis, (and Michael and Kristo, an Estonian Ph.D. graduate student at Stanford - https://history.stanford.edu/people/kristo-nurmis),

Thanks so much for your fascinating and comprehensive 'cultural' overview of education in Estonia today, Mailis - https://events.stanford.edu/events/814/81485/. And congratulations on coming in first too in European education re CES, - and ahead of Finland!

How might we best explore further developing a CC-4 MIT OCW-centric Estonia World University and School - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Estonia - in the Estonian language - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Estonian_language - around the MIT OpenCourseWare's ~2500 courses in English (https://ocw.mit.edu/), which are Creative Commons' 4 licensed (allowing for A) sharing, B) adapting, including translating, but C) non-commercially)?

Perhaps in the process, we can also build in basic scientific research into learning processes in the Estonian language (which World Univ & Sch, planning to be in each of all ~7097 living languages is interested in studying linguistically for a variety of reasons).

Estonians would get MIT for free-to-students' degrees, and it would be a very creative opportunity for Estonian educators to develop this as well. World Univ & Sch seeks to become the Stanford / Harvard d/ MIT / Oxbridge of the Internet in each of all ~200 countries' official / main languages. 

Thank you.

Best regards, Scott

Kadupul flower (Dutchman's pipe cactus): Great talk by former Prime Minister of Italy, Matteo Renzi, yesterday at Stanford (There were at least 2 former Stanford President Emeriti in the audience – Hennessy and Casper), Asked what Italy thought about Euro currency post-Lira (1861-02), whether a single cryptocurrency w block chain ledger was in future in 19 out of 27 or 28 EU states, whether this would be a wild card for Brexit when nation states such as Britain came to recognize the economic benefits of a single cryptocurrency to themselves & what effect of Euro has been on European culture?, "Stanford - Former PM Matteo Renzi of Italy, and Prof. Anna Grzymala-Busse," Wonder about banks & CRYPTO KITTIES' innovative potential-See HARVARD LAW, Re "See HARVARD LAW ... " above ... see the Harvard Law CryptoKitties' talk - https://cyber.harvard.edu/events/2018/luncheon/05/CryptoKitties - as well as Primavera De Filippi's talk in video - https://cyber.harvard.edu/events/2018/04/DeFilippi ...


Great talk by former Prime Minister of Italy, Matteo Renzi, yesterday at Stanford. (There were at least 2 former Stanford President Emeriti in the audience – Hennessy and Casper).  As the last question, I asked what Italy thought about Euro currency post-Lira (1861-02), whether a single cryptocurrency w block chain ledger was in future in 19 out of 27 or 28 EU states, whether this would be a wild card for Brexit when nation states such as Britain came to recognize the economic benefits of a single cryptocurrency to themselves & what effect of Euro has been on European culture?

Was glad to give Matteo Renzi too my World University and School business card, with planned MIT OCW-centric degrees in Italian written on the back, as well as my Harbin book "" card (since he had talked about the significance of workshops - bottega - in the Italian Renaissance to Italian creativity - e.g. Michelangelo and Da Vinci learned and taught in such workshops - bottega ). Here's a picture -

https://twitter.com/scottmacleod/status/1082828360307245057. May blog about this, and hope video of his impressive talk and interview comes online.

Dear Anna,

Thanks for your excellent interview with Matteo Renzi just now -  "Populism and Innovation: Twin Challenges for Europe?" ... https://tec.fsi.stanford.edu/events/talk-matteo-renzi-former-prime-minister-italy - after his talk.

It would be great to explore collaboration with Stanford President Emeriti John Hennessy and Gerhard Casper - and especially with former PM Matteo Renzi - with regards to planned free MIT OCW-centric degrees (and potentially Stanford Law and Medicine OCW degrees too) online in Italian at World University and School (Bachelor, Ph.D., Law, M.D. and I.B. high school). How best to explore this possibility?

I tweeted a bit about this, and there's a picture of you in this Tweet as well - https://twitter.com/scottmacleod/status/1082828360307245057

Blazing star: Medical Blockchain and Regulation, Think Google's Project Baseline (which is partnering with Stanford and Duke) into online teaching hospitals, with Project ECHO (MD specialists to rural populations in group video with a mentoring aspect) into online medical schools, Universal Basic Income if WUaS can facilitate an UBI to emails / phone numbers in each of all ~200 countries' official languages for 7.5 billion people (some portion re PLANNING for this), with the cryptocurrency somehow backed by ~200 central federal banks), Wikipedia is in 301 languages, with 291 being active ... (but I agree somehow that they aren't accessible in a wiki 'fast' way any longer, being somehow siloed ) ... an opportunity to create 7097 living languages' wiki communities via WUaS as I see this)

Dear Profs. Benson and Majumdar, 

Thanks for your far-reaching conversation yesterday on 'The Future of Energy' at Stanford - https://events.stanford.edu/events/818/81888/. And very nice to meet you in passing at the close of this. I asked about the possibility of developing a realistic virtual earth to address all of the questions you touched upon - and even as a kind of engine. Am thinking conceptually of Google Street View with TIME SLIDER, Maps, Earth with TensorFlow+.

What I have in mind might be summed up in this Tweet to MIT Prof Richard Braatz, after his Stanford ERE talk:

Thnx @MITChemE Richard Braatz https://events.stanford.edu/events/800/80002/ … OMNI-SCALE SIMULATION question?

And here are some followup emails I sent to Alan Burnham after his Stanford ERE talk -

Double-flowered: World Univ & Sch's Live Hangout on Air 10.22.18: A) Actual-Virtual Lego Robotics & B) Twin Studies, both in a Realistic Virtual Earth https://youtu.be/RJGEeU0Eo5c A) https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Robotics & B) https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Twin_Studies > #RealisticVirtualEarthForLego & #RealisticVirtualEarthForCRISPR, How might we best develop a #RealisticVirtualEarth, as #RealisticVirtualEarthForGeology for geology & environmental safety+, a #RealisticVirtualEarthForHistory re images and maps from different dates & places, and for machine learning image comparison > One focus would be to find Stanford students to take the classes, who could both add photos and videos and maps to Google Street View with TIME SLIDER, and THEN to work with them with machine learning, I see a lot of potential for a comparative actual-virtual Harbin Hot Springs' project and actual-virtual Livermore oil fields project - and for STEM ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy (as a form of crowdsourcing this) - and as a Stanford starting place for building out a realistic virtual earth at the street view, cellular and atomic levels, for knowledge generation, soaking ... 




https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2018/10/double-flowered-world-univ-schs-live.html  - about approaches to developing a realistic virtual earth as STEM field sites and classrooms for oil and geothermal, (but especially for future of energy questions) ... and with a new method I'm calling STEM ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy.

What I have in mind by an editable realistic virtual earth involves not only energy questions, but also my actual-virtual ethnographic field site (think Google Street View with Second Life / OpenSim / Sansar ):

For example, visit the Harbin gate here virtually - and "walk" down the road "4 miles" to Middletown, CA, and "amble" around the streets there (accessible from: https://twitter.com/HarbinBook and http://bit.ly/HarbinBook) ... the beginnings of a realistic virtual Harbin for soaking too :) Part of my actual-virtual Harbin Hot Springs' ethnographic project, this realistic virtual Harbin - and EARTH - will get better and better with time.

Is there a way we might be able to focus some of these realistic virtual earth questions re Stanford ERE post-docs and graduate students interested in modeling and lithium ion battery developments, and perhaps Logan, too, Sally, who asked you yesterday about related machine learning questions right before I asked you about a realistic virtual earth. I've been a bit in touch about all of this with Anirudh Allam, Maartje Boon, David McColl and others in Stanford ERE. 

Arun, did you happen to meet the Maz.....s in the DC / Baltimore area when you were in the Obama administration? (https://profiles.stanford.edu/arun-majumdar). Pin Mazumdar has long worked in the federal government, and is one of my best friends from high school in Pittsburgh, PA. His parents, Mainak and Sati, are also now living in Baltimore, and I visited and stayed with them in Kolkata about 5 years ago. I was glad to stay with Sid for 2 nights in Baltimore over New Years, as well. 

Am developing startup online universities and schools - World University and School, which is like Wikipedia in ~300 languages with CC-4 MIT OCW in 5 languages - to address some of these questions as well. Here is where major online universities in each countries' main and official languages for free-to-students' online degrees - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Nation_States - will emerge. 

Thanks again for your great 'Reflections on The Future of Energy,' and very nice to meet you.  

Best regards, Scott

Hi David (McColl), 

Nice to meet and talk with you at https://events.stanford.edu/events/813/81366/

You'll find here MIT DCI's Neha Narula talking on a panel in the last hour or so of recent day-long MIT Blockchain with Robotic Systems' conference - some about cryptocurrency with blockchain questions .... https://youtu.be/OcSYWWuO6rU ... accessible from  https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2018/12/tunguska-russia-asteroid-1908.html ...

And you'll find here - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2018/10/double-flowered-world-univ-schs-live.html - some emails I sent to Stanford ERE's Alan Burnham, who was sitting close to us, and asked the first question ... about approaches to developing a realistic virtual earth as STEM field sites and classrooms for everything ... with a new method I'm calling ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy ..

Let's stay in touch. 

Best, 
Scott

Hi Scott,

It was nice to meet you as well. This is interesting stuff! Thanks for passing it on. Let's certainly stay in touch.

Hi David,

Thanks for your email (am never sure what makes it into spam).

I blogged a bit about all of this here -
http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2019/01/browne-grandiceps-stanford-future-of.html?m=0

How best to develop a realistic virtual for states' and firms' carbon deals is a further interesting question ... with block chain ledger with a possible single cryptocurrency backed by 200 national states (and with robotics' systems per the MIT conference) - and per your studies, ... and as the science and STEM with machine learning emerges in a realistic virtual earth for atmosphere, earth and planetary sciences (e.g. re https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/earth-atmospheric-and-planetary-sciences/), in new arts or ways of representing this knowledge virtually.

And how best to teach such in an online course at MIT OCW-centric World Univ & Sch?

Looking forward to talking further about this.

Regards, Scott


* *

And as I was talking with a friend after a theoretical physics' Stanford talk on Monday - https://events.stanford.edu/events/815/81504/ - too, much of this idea for a realistic virtual earth at the street view, cellular and atomic levels has to do with new ways of representing knowledge (beyond text, diagrams, equations, statistics, etc.) ... philosophically especially.
