* 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 CC-4 https://ocw.mit.edu/-centric OpenCourseWare) is free-to-students' and learners' education, including Bachelor, Ph.D., Law, MD and IB/sim. high school, AA, and Master's degrees in each of all ~200 countries and in their official and main languages, - and to facilitate all levels of teaching and learning through open, editable wikis in 7,164 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 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!
For the matriculating students, 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: https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/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/ ?

http://worlduniversityandschool.org/InfoTechNetworkSocGlobalUniv.html
~ A best STEM-centric OCW Introductory Mathematics’ course

~ Media Arts’ best STEM-centric OCW course for undergraduates?
… all in Video conferencing, a realistic virtual earth for classrooms, or similar, for interactivity.

'''WORLD UNIVERSITY & SCHOOL IN YOUR LANGUAGE?''' Would you like to add & develop World University & School in your language? Let WUaS know, & we'll do it together. This is a great way to start an open, free school/university in your own language. World University and School is looking to develop a school/university in as many as around 7000 languages. Wikipedia has around 358 languages, for comparison.

While all countries and territories (around 200, perhaps starting with the countries, and places, in GlobalVoicesOnline.org), and all languages, (~7,164 +, including 'dead' languages, but starting with those in languages in Google Translate and in Wikipedia) will be part of this, WUaS would like to focus on poorest countries and regions too - 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 ChromeBook Plus - https://blog.google/products/chromebooks/chromebook-plus-google/ - and possibly 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.
