Minute 1

World University and School seeks to grow our matriculated classes through outreach, such as perhaps through collaboration with edX, Coursera, Quaker high schools, and Scottish Schools such as Fettes College - by offering free online CC-4 best STEM OpenCourseWare-centric university degrees, accrediting on CC-4 MIT OCW in its 5 languages and CC Yale OYC. This will depend on web platform and blockchain developments, for example, as well as funding on for outreach.


Minute 2

In seeking to build 2 new interactive virtual university teaching hospitals in a realistic virtual earth at street view, cellular and atomic levels for all countries ... for clinical care, bioengineering, for STEM medical science, and for clinical research, WUaS, conceptually, seeks to add to Project Baseline both health data at the atomic and the cellular levels. WUaS also seeks to develop these hospitals in direct correspondence to 2 on-the-ground university hospitals, such as at Harvard. This will facilitate ACTUAL < > VIRTUAL clinical care and engineering therapeutic developments in many many sub specialities of medicine.


Minute 3

WUaS is seeking to communicate further with Harvard Medical School about the New England Journal of Medicine's (NEJM) medicine learning modules (https://knowledgeplus.nejm.org/products/ and http://www.nejm.org/cme/weekly-cme-program?) re online medical school curriculum, and re translation too - (https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2018/03/fynbos-stanford-grand-rounds.html).


Minute 4

Re my inquiry in an IBM CSIG talk by Prof. Latifa Al-Abdulkarim about an online WUaS Law School in Arabic in Saudi Arabia:

Latifa Al-Abdulkarim replied

that there is thus far that she knows of “… no online Law school in Arabic. However, I will send your request to the head of Law school in two universities, they might be interested to prepare some online material.”


Minute 5

Information Technology: World University and School is awaiting further Wikidata/Wikibase developments with I.T. developments for 

A) a WUaS SUBJECT TEMPLATE - and for multiple languages.

B) Info Boxes / Knowledge Panels


Minute 6 

Universal Translator: 

WUaS is awaiting further lexicographical developments with Wikidata. 


Minute 7

Tax software:

In a Bay Area Accessibility meeting ... WUaS met with a senior project manager at Intuit to discuss in part: 

Intuit's Turbo Tax - and in multiple languages and with a cryptocurrency, block chain ledger, voice etc. (conceptually in a partly Google-centric environment / platform). 

Intuit is 


Minute 8

World University and School, as a non-profit, beyond the planned online free CC-4 OCW degrees in countries' official languages, seeks to facilitate the web platform such that schools could begin their own non-profits through World Univ and Sch. For example, in what ways could World Univ and Sch facilitate a Ghanian drummer living in Oakland, CA, beginning her / his own online school through us. This would be separate from the wiki subjects for open free teaching and learning resources. 





***
WUaS Corp



Minute A

Due to one Board members "increasing commitments at university, s/he cannot participate in WUaS."

The WUaS Corp is sad that this Board member can no longer participate in the WUaS Co. S/he wishes WUaS Co the best of luck.


Minute B

WUaS is seeking to grow our team, and with founders.

WUaS is seeking a business oriented prospective Board member.


Minute C

WUaS Corp is seeking to develop its Knowledge Panel (like Info Box)

The WUaS Corp is seeking to develop, in each countries' university in its main languages, a store / stock market / cryptocurrency (conceptuallyAndroid Pay>Google Pay?) / blockchain in ~200 countries + re payment system ... and perhaps newly with Dock.io.


Minute D

In coding our new WUaS Miraheze MediaWiki for learners / matriculated students / Universitians, the WUaS Corp would like to plan for and facilitate an Universal Basic Income for all 7.5 billion people. (Nation States would want this further because this would be taxable income, and it would generate all kinds of new revenue streams for them).
