Hi Rud, 

Very nice to talk with you yesterday at Dirk's birthday party in Berkeley. 

Here's the wiki "Nicaragua_World_University_and_School" - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Nicaragua_World_University_and_School - which WUaS is planning to accredit in Nicaragua in Spanish for online best STEM-centric University degrees. WUaS is also planning wiki schools in all other Nicaraguan languages. 

Check out the MIT OCW in Spanish here, as well as the Wikipedia's in Spanish. I just added for example the Spanish and Nicaragua Wikipedias in Spanish. 

Do you speak other Nicaraguan non-Spanish languages? 

Here too is the Architecture wiki subject/school/department - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Architecture - still only in English, but planned for many languages. Check out too all the MIT OCW to give you an idea of how WUaS works on the Creative Commons' licensed OCW side, in addition to the wiki side (and not yet a degree major).

Let's chat further about the virtual.  

Great to learn about UC Berkeley in the 1970s when you went there, and looking forward to staying in touch. 

Best, 

Scott

Hi Strawberries!,

I've added Avotcja's Indiegogo appeal - https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/send-avotcja-to-nicaragua-for-the-poetry-festival - you shared, Sue, to both the Nicaragua WUaS - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Nicaragua_World_University_and_School - and the "Assistive Technologies" wiki subject/school at WUaS - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Assistive_Technologies. 

And I added her great poetry-musical video in this appeal -

Avotcja « Poetry Festival Santa Cruz.m4v

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJmLc0o8Ng8 - to the Poetry - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Poetry - and the Blues' - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Blues - subjects at WUaS.

Here's online Friendly-informed wiki (editable) "Nicaragua_World_University_and_School" - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Nicaragua_World_University_and_School - which WUaS is planning to accredit in Nicaragua in Spanish for online best STEM-centric University degrees. WUaS is also planning wiki schools in all other Nicaraguan languages.

And here's this blog post's URL about this with a friend originally from Nicaragua but who went to Cal, and whom I met at Dirk's birthday party in Berkeley last night - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2015/01/west-indian-manatee-with-calf-well-met.html.

The Nicaragua WUaS has an open poetry section, and offers the possibility to share poetry in group video, for example, for future reference. WUaS plans to hold online Poetry festivals eventually, as well.

Hopefully all of this will help Avotcja and her great poetry get to Nicaragua to this poetry festival.

Friendly greetings,
Scott
