Welcome to potential undergraduate students at World University and School in the autumn of 2015!
 
For the matriculating students in autumn 2015, WUaS seeks to develop a cohort approach to online, MITbest OCWSTEM-centric OpenCourseWare education (with these Yale OYC and MIT OCW audio and video courses in G+ Hangouts - http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/audio-video-courses - to begin), and a first semester's course of study in English, taking about 4 courses (vis-a-vis WUaS’s planned 32 MITbest STEM-centric OpenCourseWare courses over 4 years for a free undergraduate degree) might look like this:

Begin studying, teaching, learning or creating now at this online, free College at WUaS, at the Subjects' page - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Subjects - or at this MITbest STEM-centric OpenCourseWare Courses' page - http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/.
 
WUaS plans to accredit on MITbest OCWSTEM-centric OpenCourseWare with WASCsenior, in California, for its first, matriculating, Bachelor's degree class, in the U.S. and in English (to start), in 2015.
 
(Online, wiki, virtual World University & School, with its first, matriculating, Bachelor's degree class in 2015, and with its free Bachelor's, Ph.D., Law and M.D. degrees, accrediting on MITbest Open CourseSTEM-centric WareOpenCourseWare, will be able to STUDY HOW students learn, quite rigorously, - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Research - because this will be mediated by the web, and WUaS is offering these degrees for free. Reed College's undergraduate degrees, with its required 1st year Humanities course, its junior qualifying exams, and its senior thesis, plus a required freshman, WUaS biology class with computer programming requirements, and further widespread computer programming requirements, the equivalent of 32 Yale OYC / MIT OCW / great (and rigorous) courses over approximately 4 years, and with a significant science/mathematics/engineering/technology focus - is the main model for WUaS's undergraduate degrees presently. WUaS hopes to collaborate richly with MIT OCW - http://ocw.mit.edu/ - in the process).
 
WUaS plans to offer something like 36 majors, based on these MIT OCW 36 main subject areas - http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/ - as well as excel in science, technology, engineering and mathematics' fields.
 
WUaS will eventually accredit in at least 50-100 languages/countries, and as many as possible, to offer free, online, MITbest OCWSTEM-basedcentric OpenCourseWare degrees.
 
Accreditation to offer Bachelor degrees is a 3 stage process, with WASC, with WUaS's first, matriculating, Bachelor's degree class in 2015 (graduating in 2018). WUaS plans to graduate 1000 students, every year, with a Bachelor's degree, in the online, free college.

World University & School may target Android/iPhone/ smart phone mobile internet devices with video, and group text chat for the conference method - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Conference_Method_of_Teaching_and_Learning - of teaching and learning, as the bare minimum hardware to begin to study for a MITbest OCWSTEM-centric OpenCourseWare Bachelor's degree.

In developing the World University and School, online, MITbest OCWSTEM-centric OpenCourseWare High School (Creative Commons' licensed)-centric, free 'International Baccalaureate Diploma and Programme' (highest quality - e.g. P.A. Exeter?) - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/WUaS_International_Baccalaureate_Diploma_and_Programme - WUaS will probably focus on these United Nations' languages only - Arabic, Chinese (Mandarin), English, French, Russian, Spanish ... as a feed-in to The College at WUaS - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/The_College_at_World_University_and_School - (potentially in many of the 3000-8000 languages, but starting with English in 2015) ...

I'm curious about the cultivating the role of parents in the home, in co-learning with their matriculated, undergraduate kids in 2015 (possibly 2,000 students and many of them 18-22 year olds), and beyond, at The College at WUaS ... http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/The_College_at_World_University_and_School ... How to invite parents in (or not) to the MITbest OCWSTEM-centric OpenCourseWare learning conversation, for fun, so that all learn, but such sociality is potentially beneficial with overachieving kids living at home for 4 years. (S.M.)

World University and School would like to build the possibilities of innumerable, scientific studies of students' learning, (and professors' teaching) and particularly their enjoyment of learning, by MITgreat Universities' researchers for example, from the beginning, and in all languages, in exchange for free bachelor, Ph.D. law and M.D. degrees ... and probably in WikiData ... so that MITbest OCWSTEM-centric OpenCourseWare WUaS improves and develops with the web. What a trove of developing and emergent data this could be!
