Hello NTF Planning Group,
I had sent an announcement out yesterday to NTF listserve (which I assumed had everyone on the Planning Group too) but now have been made aware that that may not be true!
So below is the Zoom invitation to the NTF sponsored worship sharing tonight at 8:00 (Eastern time) if you would like to join in. The topic is "How do we encourage the expression of diverse views in our Meeting, while supporting each other?"
Cheers!
John Hunter

Hi, John, Rosemary, nontheist Friends, atheist Quakers,
Thanks for organizing this.
Sorry, but I can't make it; I did however blog about some NtFriendly views, which I had shared in this list, on Poverty Action and much more yesterday - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/06/cosmos-sulphureus-poverty-action-wiki.html. Chris Mohr, executive director of Friends' Center, also has a focus on stopping poverty - https://twitter.com/chrismsf - as you'll see in his Twitter profile.
If the way opens, please share with us what people shared. (And if a Youtube recording is made, if people are comfortable with this, let's consider adding it to Nontheist Friends (atheist Quakers?) wiki school - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Nontheist_Friends_(atheist_Quakers%3F) ). I hope nontheist Friends are doing well in the coronavirus pandemic sequestrations, (further thoughts about this in the genes' label in blog too - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/genes).
NtFriendly cheers, Scott

Here in the #NontheistFriends' Twitter #hashtag - https://twitter.com/hashtag/NontheistFriends?src=hashtag_click - I just found a Twitter post regarding SF Friend Sherri Maurin and my conversation & invitation to Quaker kids to matriculate at World Univ & Sch for free-to-students' online degrees (from 2012 actually, when I represented Friendly-informed WUaS at FGC in Rhode Island). It's looking like WUaS will be offering our 2nd matriculating undergraduate class the opportunity to take edX courses (founded by Harvard & MIT), I'm glad to announce.

If you know of any 17 or 18 yo NtF or Quaker kids interested please let WUaS know. (A new sign up may appear here in the next few days - worlduniversityandschool.org).
Quaker-informed (NtF especially) colleges - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/The_College_at_World_University_and_School - can be an excellent way to further "encourage the expression of diverse views in our Meeting, while supporting each other."
NtFriendly cheers, Scott

Hi Lucy,
Lucy Duncan (AFSC)
A bit more about wiki-adding courses to World Univ & Sch's wiki subjects here -
World Univ & Sch is a wiki (editable, teachable web pages), and free to post to (but not advertising). See - https://wiki. worlduniversityandschool.org/ wiki/Subjects - for example:
Welcome to World University and School Wiki
which anyone can add to or edit.
The Global, Virtual/Digital, Open, Free, {potentially Degree- and Credit-Granting},
Multilingual University & School
where anyone can teach or take a class or course
which anyone can add to or edit.
The Global, Virtual/Digital, Open, Free, {potentially Degree- and Credit-Granting},
Multilingual University & School
where anyone can teach or take a class or course
And WUaS's licensing is Creative Commons 4, so is 1) non-commercial , but which licensing allows for 2) sharing, and 3) adapting (like best STEM CC-4 OpenCourseWare - https://ocw.mit.edu/) -
(see the bottom of WUaS wiki pages):
Content is available under Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International (CC BY-SA 4.0) unless otherwise noted.
- but WUaS has still not yet connected our wiki "front end" eg
https://wiki. worlduniversityandschool.org/ wiki/Uprisings,_Occupations,_ Protests,_Resistance_%26_Hope
or you could begin a wiki subject, as well.
with our wiki "back end" structured knowledge database in Wikidata and in its ~300 languages, so it might be worth exploring constructing courses that could work on our wiki pages (like best STEM CC-4 OCW courses), or even on the degree side of WUaS, with courses that undergraduates could take this autumn for credit, for example (and possibly like edX courses, regarding different time zones etc).
Questions, thoughts, ideas, suggestions? Please email me.
Friendly regards, Scott

Hi Nanette, Nice to hear from you. Glad you are all well, and able to travel across EU borders this summer in a van! Sounds fun! Greetings to Harald and your boys. Creative time here, in ongoing way - with World University and School (in ~200 countries and 7117 languages), and actual-virtual, physical-digital realistic virtual earth / Harbin as STEM field sites, and classrooms' projects. What languages are your boys learning? Any programming languages like Scratch (with Lego robotics even)? Am pretty well, continuing to seek a life partner, and while daily life in California may be a little quieter than pre-Covid-19 CA is in phase 2 or 3 of opening, even without vaccine or plan (although coronavirus mortality worldwide seems miniscule - 5,000 in Sweden with no sequestration) ... but I'm still staying mostly at home in beautiful Canyon CA 94516 (on hot summer afternoons too). WUaS collaboration with edX founded by Harvard & MIT this autumn looks promising for WUaS's 2nd undergraduate class, first in English! :) When might you return to the states? It would be nice to see you again! Could head conceivably to Cuttyhunk Aug 1, but waiting on further developments gene-wise, and meme-wise (replicating cultural units - eg news articles, and the 'coronavirus' word :) Warm regards, Scott

Dear Larry,
If in the future for BPPE licensing and WASC accreditation, World Univ & Sch needs a standardized admissions' test ... this one is at the top of a WUaS list (over SAT etc) - but seeking others. This one isn't in other non-English languages, for example. Maybe WUaS can create a spin off - a regarding HGSE Creative Computing Assessment philosophy even - in multiple countries' languages.
Sincerely, Scott
