WUaS Idea- and Academic Resources

Ideas

Here are important templates for wiki-creating schools or MIT OCW-centric universities in a language or country of your choice, if you would like to do so -

http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/LANGUAGE_TEMPLATE

http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/NATION_STATE_TEMPLATE

and here's the main WUaS subject template -

http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/SUBJECT_TEMPLATE -

for creating new wiki subjects, and in a language of your choosing.


Publish my article in a WUaS academic journal in this subject

Open Journal Systems. 2012. Open Journal Systems. Public Knowledge Project.

(WUaS's wiki, information technologies and criteria for this - informed by the WUaS academic journal subject matter - are developing, since you can already publish your article at Academia.edu http://www.academia.edu or Research Gate - http://www.researchgate.net/ - or Spire - http://spire.sciences-po.fr/web/ - for example); See Library Resources below at WUaS for further resources.

"to teach people about the "core scientific concepts" of Feynman's lectures using interactive media. According to his video introduction, Gates saw the lectures when he was younger. He enjoyed the physics concepts and Feynman's lecturing style, and later acquired the rights to make the video available to the public. He hopes that this will encourage others to make educational content available for free."). research.microsoft.com.
