Hi Scott, I was just thinking about you earlier today. It is nice to hear from you. How are you doing?
I am doing good.
Thanks, Jackie

Hi Jackie,
Pretty well, thank you, but am living in a temporary, I think, 'safe house' just north of Berkeley (which may change in a few months however)! Glad to hear from you as well! And glad you're doing well.
Thanks, Scott

Living in a 'safe house'. I feel like there is a more interesting story there. :) I hope that if you do move it is a smooth move into a new place. Nothing so exciting over here. Mostly just working and trying to get my boys through distance learning while our schools are still closed. Have a great day. Take care, Jackie

Thanks, Jackie!
Am curious how remote learning can begin to flourish online, and not just at the high school and college/ university levels per CC-4 MIT OCW (and newly with edX re World Univ & Sch partnering) - but also on the WUaS wiki pages (in 200 countries & in their main languages!), for all ages potentially, as people wiki-add excellent online learning opportunities (like vetted remarkable home schooling opportunities) for example!

I would be happy to share my frustrations and accomplishments when it comes to what I have seen with distance learning. I think online learning can be very beneficial when done well. If you do decide to go down this path you might want to look at the differences between what CA public schools are doing vs. what traditional homeschool/ Charter public online schools are doing. What the public schools are doing right now is causing frustration for a bunch of reasons. One reason is the parents were not and are still not prepared for the task. With homeschool and the Charter public online schools. They provide the parents the teaching manuals along with the kids assignments. This is one way they are preparing parents to take over the role as the educator. I will not bore you with more details. I live this everyday so it is in the front of my mind. There are some really great homeschool/online programs out there you might want to look at.
Thanks,
Jackie

Thanks so much, Jackie, for your message.
And great to hear about what you're learning about 'homeschooling,' and perhaps with parents becoming teachers themselves (and re guidance for this esp.). Am looking around for a blog entry from some years ago regarding planning for this, and found this mentioning parents -
Flicker: Stanford Business School free course - "Scaling Up Your Venture Without Screwing Up," Homeschooling as emerging from hippies?, Cultures give shape to organizations, e.g. Quakers have created many Friendly schools and colleges, "New Age Journal" web site, and the "New Age Explorations" wiki subject page at WUaS
https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2014/07/flicker-stanford-business-school-free.html - but not the blog post or two regarding how beneficial it would be to prepare for parents' roles in the home re online learning. Let's stay in touch about this, and please add any great links (that you've thus vetted for quality, or are otherwise accredited somehow for quality too) here, for example - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Courses#Kids'_free_learning_materials (from the main - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Courses), or possibly to https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/English_as_a_Second_Language_for_Kids (from https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Subjects). These wiki pages will grow, and anyone can create new ones (in any language eventually), and will become interoperable with WUaS's "back end" in Wikidata (eg MIT OCW in Wikidata - https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:EntityPage/Q1637597 or edX in Wikidata - https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q2106448). Will be interesting as WUaS's wikis grow how to best link all the best open free resources out there (re Charter schools, homeschooling online, etc.)
Thanks, Scott
