Mint stem: WUaS's plan is still to focus development in Wikidata / MediaWiki (like Wikipedia with an interlingual database, C.C. licensed) and use a kind of MIT OCW course model for individual courses, probably partly in MediaWiki, too, but as we get the resources, And for WUaS' degree side, - accrediting in English to begin - we'll use these: http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/audio-video-courses/ - MIT OCW-centricity is important to WUaS for a variety of reasons, especially Creative Commons' licensing ones, as well as it's STEM-centricity (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics' focus).

Hi Juan (in Spain!),

Concerning the "'Information Technology and the Network Society,' WUaS's first, free, open course, Thursdays, 5pm-7pm PT on Harvard's virtual island in SL and in Google + Hangouts" course

I'm teaching at World University and School - http://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2013/09/information-technology-and-network.html - thanks for your suggestion of a page per course like in your Quantum University example - http://universidadquantum.es/preview/20.

WUaS's plan is still to focus development in Wikidata / MediaWiki (like Wikipedia with an interlingual database, C.C. licensed) and use a kind of MIT OCW course model for individual courses, probably partly in MediaWiki, too, but as we get the resources ... I did add a link to my old Course wiki - http://socinfotech.pbworks.com/w/page/17175578/FrontPage - to the WUaS Courses and Schools' page at WUaS ... http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Courses ... and combine this with Quicken POS multi-store (first in the U.N. languages in English, Mandarin, Russian, Arabic, Spanish and French, and than in the largest languages).

And for WUaS' degree side, - accrediting in English to begin - we'll use these: http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/audio-video-courses/. MIT OCW-centricity is important to WUaS for a variety of reasons, especially Creative Commons' licensing ones, as well as it's STEM-centricity (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics' focus).


See you, friends and other Board members in the open, hour-long, monthly business meeting on Saturday at 9am PT - http://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2013/08/september-8-2013-monthly-business.html !

Regards,
Scott
