* The inexperienced may want to check out the "How to help" section on the "community portal" article linked on the sidebar.
* Remember this page is the most public face of the wiki - test edits are best done on a separate page.
* Sections within "<! --" and "-- >" markers (without the spaces) - like this entire section - are hidden comments, and can be separated by several lines. Be sure not to break them.
* We strongly recommend you do not change the <mainpage-leftcolumn-start /> style tags - these keep your page format safe from unexpected breaks - the left column is first, followed by the right column. 


* Protecting the main page can do more harm than good, for example by preventing links being added.

'''[[Mission]]:''' 

The mission of World University and School (http://worlduniversityandschool.org - like Wikipedia with best STEM-centric CC-4 OpenCourseWare) is free-to-students' and learners' education, including Bachelor, Ph.D., Law, MD and IB high school degrees in all ~200 countries and in their official and main languages, - and to facilitate all levels of teaching and learning through open, editable wikis in 7,139 known living languages. WUaS plans to accredit at the university and high school levels to offer online degrees and diplomas. WUaS’s wiki will involve open and editable teaching and learning but also non-editable courses prepared under a Creative Commons’ license. WUaS will facilitate the use of free CC courses as credits toward degrees. Due to the rapid spread of broadband worldwide, WUaS plans to make this accessible to underserved parts of the world and to poor people everywhere. WUaS will explore the possibility of using universal translators to extend the project automatically to any language with time. WUaS also seeks to create major online wiki universities, accrediting on CC-4 best STEAM OCW (in 4 languages) and CC Yale OYC, in each of all ~200 countries' official and main languages.

Welcome to potential undergraduate students at World University and School in January of 2018!

For the matriculating students in January 2018, WUaS seeks to develop a cohort approach to online, best STEM OCW-centric education (e.g. from MIT OCW audio and video - http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/audio-video-courses - or Yale OYC - http://oyc.yale.edu/courses - courses in G+ Hangouts to begin), and a first semester's course of study in English, taking about 4 courses (vis-a-vis WUaS’s planned 40 best CC OCW STEM-centric courses over 4 years for a free undergraduate degree) might look like this: 


~ Humanities 101 (required for 1st year students) - see: http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Humanities (paralleling Reed College's Hum 110, but online in multiple languages).

~ First year Biology course with a programming component (required)
http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/biology/7-01sc-fundamentals-of-biology-fall-2011 ? 

~ Introduction to Computer Science and Programming
http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/electrical-engineering-and-computer-science/6-00sc-introduction-to-computer-science-and-programming-spring-2011/ ?

~ A best STEM-centric OCW Introductory Mathematics’ course  
http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/mathematics/ 

~ Media Arts’ best STEM-centric OCW course for undergraduates?


… all in Google + group video Hangouts, or similar, for interactivity.

Start a new SUBJECT with this [[SUBJECT TEMPLATE]], then clicking 'Edit this Page' and copying and pasting this template to the subject you're creating.

(While open to various citation styles, World University and School tends toward using the American Anthropological Association's Style Guide: http://www.aaanet.org/publications/guidelines.cfm & http://www.aaanet.org/publications/style_guide.pdf).

<div style="text-align:left;">

We're presently in the process of both envisioning and realizing a global, degree-granting (Bachelors, Ph.D., Law, and M.D.), free-to-students, open, online university and school, with great universities' (e.g. Yale, MIT, Stanford, Ivy League Schools, U.C. Berkeley, Oxford, T.U.M., Sorbonne, L.M.U., Juilliard Music School, Cambridge, Collège de France, Caltech, B.T.U., University of Chicago, etc., open course ware, especially) as key players, using a Wikipedia with best STEM-centric OCW model, and for everyone, and especially the developing world - which [[Help:Editing|anyone can edit]], primarily by teaching, adding, requesting or taking courses.


<br>

World University and School also makes program and course content (best STEM-centric OCW-focused) available to universities, through a developing membership program, open to universities, countries, 'languages,' and other interested parties. 


<br>
In many ways, World University & School is already open here. Add a course, or teach to your web camera, now. And you can take classes, for example, through best STEM-centric OpenCourseWare. MIT OCW's web site contains over 2,200 courses, with many video lectures posted, and Yale OYC contains around 42. Or you can post a very fun or fascinating class about Mozart, massage, painting, calculus, sculpture or your area of interest or specialization. Also, create a page with what you know, what courses you'd like to teach or take, and what courses you've taken; by creating your own, on this page (http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/You_at_World_University), to begin adding a free course, by language, country, degree, or to take a course. 


<br>

WUaS is planning for credit- and degree-granting, and in multiple countries. As these two paths develop at World University, - degree and a meta-directory for open courses and teaching & learning resources, - best STEM-centric OpenCourseWare is our model for degree-granting, academic, course work.


<br>

For World University & School's free, degree-focus approach, we seek to accredit for Bachelor, Ph.D., Law and M.D. degrees, using best STEM-centric OpenCourseWare as a basis, and eventually in 50-100 countries for degrees, and with interactivity in virtual worlds and via multiple, video-conferencing windows, for a conference-method approach. WUaS seeks its first, matriculating, Bachelor's class in 2014, its first Ph.D. class in 2015, its first class in law in 2016, and its first medical class in 2017, anticipating graduating 100 students in each, to begin. Its first, matriculating, foreign-country, degree class for a Bachelor's degree-equivalent, accredited in that country, will begin around 2015. WUaS seeks overachieving students (such as might go to Harvard and Stanford), and also plans to offer these overachievers, and all interested learners, a developing set of learning possibilities, paralleling the internet, as it develops into the future. 


<br>

Beginning in 2014, WUaS would like to place web cameras in great universities' professors' classrooms, for example, with another instructor in a virtual world. 

<br>

While all countries and territories (around 200, perhaps starting with the countries, and places, in GlobalVoicesOnline.org), and all languages, (possibly 8,000 +, including 'dead' languages, but starting with those in languages in Google Translate and in Wikipedia) will be part of this, we'd like to focus at first on the communities in countries that One Laptop Per Child (OLPC), is also engaging - Rwanda, Ethiopia, Colombia, Haiti, Mexico, Peru, USA (Birmingham, Alabama), Uruguay, Afghanistan, Mongolia, Cambodia, & Papua New Guinea - as well as your interests. WUaS is planning to make its content available on One Laptop Per Child computers, and video-capable, programmable, handheld devices (video), as these develop. And people in these countries, of course, can add their own courses or instruction to this WUaS wiki, and by teaching to their web cameras, with knowledge they would like to share. A video-capable, internet, mobile-phone device would allow people who are illiterate to take and post courses to this WUaS wiki.


<br>
Many aspects of learning, which occur in a classroom or learning situation now, are possible to engage interactively in virtual worlds like Second Life today, and these virtual world technologies may develop a lot in the next few years.

<br>
World University and School would like to develop a very easy-to-use, probably Open Simulator-based, virtual world (and multiple others) - earth-topographically realistic (building on the photo realism of holodecks) - where individuals and end users could host their own islands, regions, etc. on their own computers (perhaps this would ship with machines), and which would easily network with a variety of virtual world islands, or spaces, beginning with other Open Simulator islands, as well as Second Life islands - expressly for open, free, teaching and learning classrooms, and idea exchange (voice and text chat), - at both the university and school levels.

<br>
World University and School may extend thousands of years into the future, potentially generating a remarkable archive of courses over time. 

<br>
This multilingual University and School is open to almost all possible courses, including Ph.D.-related ones, and those in Medicine, Music (both Western and Indian classical, with possible instrumental training), Veterinary Medicine, Law, Electrical Engineering, etc., as well as 'harmonizing' and therapeutic courses in fields like yoga, Watsu {water shiatsu}, and acupuncture.

<br>
People ultimately 'train' their own bodyminds in whatever learning context, and World University and School may facilitate this in new ways. World University furthers a familiar approach to knowledge generation, where learning also occurs through various forms of dialogue and conversation, such as that which occurs in the conference-method approach to learning (like Reed College's), in seminars and through libraries, books and journals. And World University will engage the far-reaching potentials of the Information Technology revolution to make learning and teaching - knowledge exchange, very widely construed - global and innovative in ongoing ways.

<br>
Envision learning, teaching and idea-exchange anew, building on the existing 'University' and 'School.' Here are some tools with which to do so: a Wiki, video, as well as interactive virtual worlds with group type chat, voice, and real time streaming video. :) Add and create your own.
