Tablelands: WUaS Corporation Board Meeting from Stanford? WUaS is in Google Suite for Education, N-P World Univ and Sch is awaiting a "knowledge panel" with Donate Button from Google, Coursera seems to be heading for Google IT support per Andrew Ng, and (Apple's) Woz U too per Google's head Sundar Pichai, In what ways could WUaS best bring to the table CC-4 MIT OCW in its 5-7 languages, with Stanford for Medicine and Law OCW, for these degrees - Bachelor, Ph.D., Law, Medicine and I.B. high school, in ~200 nation states and their official/main languages - and with Wikipedia/Wikidata's 299 languages, to plan and build wiki schools in all 7,099 living languages / 8,461 entries in languages?, Google's Sindar Pichai USA Today article by Reed College's Jessica Guynn about education and jobs, "Finding / creating a job you really love" wiki subject at WUaS, Wondering too if somehow Google / Alphabet's Chairman, Eric Schmidt, who just stepped down as executive chariman of Alphabet could take the WUaS Corporation public in all ~200 countries' official/main languages

Previous: Blue-ringed octopus: Cryptocurrency co-pilot projects, ... And can we add every single picture and every single video ever to a realistic virtual Universe (think Google Street View with Time Slider, with Maps / Earth ) ... and convert them into 3D virtual world interactivity with interactive avatar bots (with all 7,099 living languages ... eg Google group video Hangouts into 3D virtual worlds) ... visit the Harbin Hot Springs' gate here ~ http://tinyurl.com/p62rpcg ~ and "WALK" down the road 4 miles to Middletown, California, ... Re Cryptocurrency, conceptually, very TurboTax/Quickbooks' centric since they follow countries' tax code developments and have a research focus on the blockchain ledger in Canada (see the 3 Intuit links here), A few state legislatures in the US to write the legal code to create a cryptocurrency?, P.S. Very Google-centric (and Wikipedia-centric) here too, and it could make sense to include Finland in this legislation co-pilot project. Also WUaS seeks to create online law schools in all ~200 countries' official languages, and our law students in each of all of these nation states could help write some of this law code too, e.g. here Law Schools at World University and School

Hi Kyle, 

Thanks for your emails. WUaS Corporation Board Meeting from Stanford soon? (I think we'll keep Hong Kong and Romania time zones in mind). 

Yes, WUaS's emails - e.g. like info@worlduniversityandschool.org - are in Google Suite for Education email, which worlduniversityandschool.org has been "registered" in for a couple of years now. 

I'm creating a new F-P WUaS Co email address - probably in Gmail to come - and re WUaS's 10 F-P planned revenue streams in all ~200 countries' official languages and all 7,099 living languages - https://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2017/06/wuas-corporations-10-planned-for-profit.html

As you may have seen in recent minutes/announcements, N-P World Univ and Sch is awaiting a "knowledge panel" with Donate Button from Google on our non-profit side, (which is what N-P World Univ and Sch is in in Google Education).

F-P WUaS Co may also get a Google "knowledge panel" too eventually. 

And like Coursera which seems to be heading for Google IT support - https://twitter.com/AndrewYNg/status/954031734969921536 - and (Apple's) Woz U too per Google's head Sundar Pichai - https://twitter.com/jguynn/status/954464049202278400 - (who was just in Pittsburgh, PA at Google per this article, and where Sundar first landed in the US when he came from India, and where I also first started talking about WUaS back around 2007) - so WUaS may head in this Google Educaction direction too for the A) F-P WUaS Co and B) N-P World University and School.

Thanks for your thinking. Will keep you posted about the upcoming WUaS Co Board Meeting, hopefully from Stanford with you in Hong Kong. 

Best, Scott

In what ways could WUaS best bring to the table CC-4 MIT OCW in its 5-7 languages, with Stanford for Medicine and Law OCW, for these degrees - Bachelor, Ph.D., Law, Medicine and I.B. high school, in ~200 nation states and their official/main languages - and with Wikipedia/Wikidata's 299 languages, to plan and build wiki schools in all 7,099 living languages / 8,461 entries in languages?

Jessica: 

Nice to e-meet you. 

Re LinkedIn this morning: I just retweeted your Google's Sundar Pichai Tweet - https://twitter.com/jguynn/status/954464049202278400 (re "Google to give $1 billion to nonprofits and help Americans get jobs in the new economy" https://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/2017/10/12/google-give-1-billion-nonprofits-help-americans-get-jobs-new-economy/756703001/) - here - https://twitter.com/WorldUnivAndSch - and blogged today about it today - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2018/01/tablelands-wuas-corporation-board.html - too. I went to Reed from '79-85 (and lived in a Reed house until 1987), so we overlapped in Portland a bit (and there's a "Reed College" label in my blog as well).

(See, too - "Google CEO Sundar Pichai: Digital technology must empower workers, not alienate them: Coding alone will not prepare workers for our tech-filled future" ... https://www.nbcnews.com/think/opinion/digital-technology-must-empower-next-generation-workers-not-alienate-them-ncna838806 ... https://twitter.com/sundarpichai/status/954090982437343232).

Do you go to the Stanford Law / Rock Center SVDX meetings on the 3rd Thursdays per the picture in the background of your Twitter profile - https://twitter.com/jguynn? I've gone fairly regularly for the past 2+ years, and would invite you to the next one, if you don't go and are interested. I was just there last Thursday - https://www.svdx.org/calendar/2018/18/january-morning-speaker-series. Were you there, by any chance?

As you'll read in the blog entry above and per your article, I started talking about CC-4 MIT OCW-centric (in its 5 languages) wiki (like Wikipedia in its 299 languages) World University and School in Pittsburgh around 2007 (leaving Pgh in Jan of 2008 to return to write an actual/virtual anthropological book). WUaS not only has a free online University degree focus in all ~200 countries' official/main languages, but also a number of job and career oriented wiki subjects - e.g. http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Finding_/_creating_a_job_you_really_love (soon to move into WUaS's new wiki below) - for open teaching and learning. 

May I invite you to the next Stanford Law/Rock Ctr Silicon Valley Directors' Exchange? 

Regards, Scott

Wondering too if somehow Google / Alphabet's Chairman, Eric Schmidt, who just stepped down as executive chariman of Alphabet could take the WUaS Corporation public in all ~200 countries' official/main languages ...
