Welcome to World University and School Wiki
which anyone can add to or edit.
The Global, Virtual/Digital, Open, Free, {potentially Degree- and Credit-Granting},
Multilingual University & School
where anyone can teach or take a class or course
Welcome to World University and School, a global, virtual, open, (future degree-granting - Ph.D., M.D., & Music School, etc.), free-to-students, university and school, with great universities (e.g. MIT, Ivy League Schools, Stanford, U.C. Berkeley, Oxford, T.U.M., Sorbonne, L.M.U., Juilliard Music School, Cambridge, Collège de France, Cal Tech, B.T.U., University of Chicago, etc.) as key web content generators, based on a Wikipedia with MIT Open Course Ware model, especially for the developing world, and for everyone.
Mission: World University & School's mission (http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/World_University - like Wikipedia with MIT Open Course Ware), in reaching out to the entire world, is to provide a free, wiki-based education platform for knowledge generation, and, through facilitating the development of broadband worldwide, to make our service accessible to under served parts of the world. The WUaS mission is thus to facilitate all levels of teaching and learning opportunities (and future degrees) through an open, editable wiki in all languages, nation-states and subjects with great universities, and for One Laptop per Child countries and everyone.
Objectives
Wiki World University and School plans to be the MIT / Harvard of the internet in all 7,413+ languages and the 205+ countries, building on MIT OpenCourseWare, and also potentially extends MIT OCW into all languages and countries online.
WUaS is also planning MIT OCW-centric, Creative Commons’ licensed, bachelor, Ph.D., law and M.D. degrees, including online Medical (as well as an hospital) and Law Schools, as well as International Baccalaureate diplomas, accrediting on MIT OCW, in many languages and countries, first in English, then in the United Nations' languages, then in languages with large populations, especially in the poorest parts of the world and in Africa. WUaS also plans to create wiki schools for people-to-people teaching and learning in all 7,413 languages; Wikipedia is in 285 languages, by way of comparison.
Master Plan
(WUaS Information Technologies and Data Plan)
"All Ways Free" to students. Budget for this in perpetuity (perhaps like Tokyo University and Scandinavian universities).
Year 2010
Technologies:
Database of open Teaching and Learning Materials, in all languages; anyone may teach to their web camera in this open wiki. Information technologies here include human minds. Anyone may teach to and learn, in real time, in a virtual world, like Second Life, using the wiki-like Google calendar, for example.
Video capable hand held computer devices (e.g. OLPC and mobile computer devices - with robust video bandwidth and infrastructure in OLPC countries, and everywhere).
Translation between all languages. Building on Google Translate and others? Be able to add Languages wiki-like?
Outputs:
Laptop/Desktop - One Laptop per Child size screen (6x4 inches), capable of virtual worlds like Second Life, and all related technologies as they develop, as well as streaming video; web pages - markup languages, what people create and do with this, etc.
Classroom - MIT OCW & Khan Academy, for example, in Arabic on Egyptian classroom projectors (even on little Pica projectors) through World University & School: http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Languages? (Each language at WUaS will become its own ONLINE University or School wiki for people-to-people teaching & learning, too).
Mobile - Handheld size screen (3x2 inches); NY Times' mobile format, with video?
Printer - Printable teaching and learning materials from World University & School for OLPC countries, and everyone, from OLPC and hand held devices.
Plan for Google TV
'Harbin Bubble Glasses'
WUaS Music School - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/World_University_Music_School
New Technologies:
Engage, and help to generate, new technological developments (partnering with MIT?) robustly, as they emerge.
Budget robustly for technological innovation and experimentation.
Become the low cost worldwide provider of internet access, focusing on the OLPC countries.
'Brainwave' headsets
World University and School Volunteer positions:
Add suggestions for developments to World University & School here:
or add a new Request for Comments page.
