Welcome to potential undergraduate students at World University and School in the autumn of 2014! |
|||
For the matriculating students in autumn 2014, WUaS seeks to develop a cohort approach to online, MIT OCW-centric education (with these MIT OCW audio and video courses in G+ Hangouts - http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/audio-video-courses - to begin), and a first semester course of study in English, taking about 4 courses (vis-a-vis WUaS’s planned 32 MIT courses over 4 years for a free undergraduate degree) might look like this: |
|||
~ Humanities 101 (required) |
|||
~ 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/ ? |
|||
~ Information Technology and the Network Society |
|||
~ A MIT OCW Introductory Mathematics’ course |
|||

|||
~ Media Arts’ MIT OCW course for undergraduates? |
|||
… all in Google + Hangouts, or similar, for interactivity. |
