Bird landing: World Univ & Sch Media Lab, Tax increase for nonprofits w property?, Eventual WUaS Faculty as shepherds, WUaS place in 2019?, Product?

is planting the seed of a World Univ & Sch Media Lab ...

for open, WUaS digital innovation gardening -

'Media Lab at World University and School' -
http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Media_Lab_at_World_University_and_School -

for online, digital innovation !! :) Wow ... check out the Labs, under (new) 'Select Labs' ... they look fun :)



... link to come, - as well as online Museum exhibitions, that might articulate richly with the WUaS Media Lab -

http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Museums :)


*

In so many ways, World Univ & Sch is already a Media Lab, with an interest in becoming like MIT's, but online only ...

for you and all of us, for open, WUaS digital innovation gardening -

http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/ -

Innovate away at this upcoming WUaS Media Lab :)


*

Looks like taxes for U.S. nonprofits with property, especially, may be going up.

Check out this Boston example -

Cooper, Michael. 2011. Squeezed Cities Ask Nonprofits for More Money. May 12.

Advantages in going virtual, -

WUaS is offering a WHALE of 'community benefits' (per the article) ...

http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Educational_Software ...

FREE educational software, for example.

In what ways might World University & School,

or Universitians,

fruitfully ORCHESTRATE

doing Physics
http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Physics

or Mathematics
http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Mathematics

problems (MIT OCW)


TOGETHER WITH listening to the Grateful Dead or Mozart ...

New innovative approaches, with GREAT enjoyment, to LEARNING are so possible and many :)


*

Will every Subject page -

http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Subjects -

yea, every page (e.g. Museums, et al.),

have an easy, fun, creative 'Try Making This Digitally' section,

where you can make something online innovatively? :) What would this be for 'Anthropology' or 'Loving Bliss Eliciting'?

... and in the Music School, oui, oui :)


*

In so many ways, the WUaS faculty will become

the shepherds,

key decision-makers,

or key facilitators

(because they know their subjects, esp. v-a-v innovation ahead, and as great faculty often are).



WUaS hopes to begin its FREE degree programs

(BA in 2014, PhD, Law, Medicine)

with MIT OCW (2,045 free courses presently) / Harvard

faculty streamed into virtual spaces ...


... with WUaS graduate students as in-world instructors/graders at http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/ . :)



*

In year 3 of the WUaS medical school (2019?),

with possible, first matriculating class in 2017,

after developing the WUaS BA, Ph.D., Law degree programs,

with 1st matriculating classes in 2014 2015 & 2016, respectively,

hopefully with MIT OCW & Harvard open courses,

will the physical site be Stanford Medical Centers?


Love it :) ... bird landing :)


*


thinks it looks like WUaS's 'products' are its free BA, PhD, Law, & MD programs,

along with each virtual class of students it produces

(hopefully with a kind MIT OCW, Stanford & Harvard collaborative, educational initiative for open courses).


Hmmm, - expanding definition of PRODUCT emerging - Love it :).


Perhaps some graduates will write a lot of fascinating code along the way,

and otherwise produce ‎... digitally,

and bequest their companies to WUAS, like Amar Bose did to MIT.


‎... and faculty & students' papers, dissertations, & projects, of course, are 'products,' of a sort ...
