AI is the greatest leap engineers have contributed multiplying previous leaps:1760s+ what industrial revolution can do with thousands of horsepower? 1865+ what can telecoms and electricity unite around earth? 1956 how will lifetime work of Neumann Einstein Turing exponentially advance what human brains alone cannot -to understand this 3 million fold tech waves need mapping : chips, computers, satellites linking data and open ai modes to apps communities need to scale urgent solutions. In 1951. The Economist's editor Geoffrey Crowther decided 108 years of mediating economists was pointless without integrating engineering leaps. Just in time he required his journalist team to understand the lifetime innovation challenges of Neumann-Einstein-Turing.

what would mooc be like if it aimed to scale lifetime intelligence of humanity's best

 in 2013 we had the privlege to discuss this with fazle Abed- more than any other person his intelligence helped the world poorest vilage women build banglades as 8th most populous nation


abed died december 2019 and founded bangladesh rural advancement committee in 1972


first he made it clear c most be for cooperation; how do we design a mooc that isnt examing poeople but helps mentor them - a question also being asked in 2020s of AI agents

Lets suppose you opened fazle abed mooc - would you like to see 8 chapters- thats our guess; if so what we wnat ti do is seloect the 8 greatest transformations that abed scaled through 1972-2019


lets list chapters in order he felt he had surprised people- we can then list that sequentailly


in 2001 steve jobs staged 65th birthday wish party with Fazle Abed in silicon valley - abed suprised the valleys gtreatest cratives- he wanted to foudn a university where the graduiate research formed the most colabortaive paretnershoisp not the most exclusive alumni club; moreover he wanted brac universitgy to lead research not being domne elsewhere but relevant to women buildind nations

banglades was one of first nations to design mobile pjones and solar to leapfrog (the nation rurl areas had not enjoyed wited electrivity or fixed like phones)- while yunus tried to invent telephone girl solutions. abed surprsied people- there were at least 10 value chains that vilages had led by replicating millions of mothers franchsies; brac had ensured ownership of value chain on behalf of teh wpoemn; but now that t6he nations rural and city markets were converging, abed prioritised first 10 years of brac access to digital and solar round leading the overall value chain nation =wide of sudch markets as rice, eggs, milk, wholesaling basic meds ...


he lso waited for the best partners to connect together before designing teh largest cashless bank in tersm of population served bkash whiuch merits its own chapter

one of brac's unique networks was that which empowered vilage somen to build health services - not just with retailing basic meds but with every mother taught how to do oral rehydratyion; this was part of 15 yerar partenrship with unicel james grant - so it was natural to choose james gbrant school of global health as unique core of brac university system which also merged with the nations ch=olera lab; brac started hosting annual summirt of frogal system designs of global health

one of the questions mr and mrs job had asked abed in 2001 ws why does yunsu offer solutions intentaionally but you fociu=us on bangladesh; abed said he had been so busy it hadnt seen relevant in the era of vilages prior to mobile and solar tobuold an international office- but he would if he could find a nation with a suitable lehgal framewpork bot to handle intenational clients and to develop bracs remiitiaces service - one third of all banagldesh exports comes from remittamces; historicall the value chain supplying that had been expensive - abed saw chnace to integrate that imnto a whole range of finacial services whoich kept brac microfinance plus but now added city bank, bkash and international remittances

unfortunatley the bordering natiosn of bangladesh are ed- myanmar has caused million rohinga to seek asylom and brac has to sustain teh largest service to immigrants; 

in abed's fianl years he realsied his internation focus had tried too much to please atlanti9c partners nd had not advanced bangladesh'a min proble- its infrastructure connectying natiosn is hemmed in by the colapsing nation of myanmar and lack of sonsisten undersdtan ing of bamngaldesnh and neigoring india states

belt road and jinping speech chronology

  1. President Xi Jinping announced the creation of the “Economic Belt of the Silk Road” in a speech in the Nazarbayev University in Astana, Kazakhstan in September 2013. The Belt is a land-based economic corridor extending from eastern China to western Europe and engaging 69 nations in its path. One month later he announced, from Jakarta, Indonesia, the intention to launch the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road together with other nations. This includes building numerous ports on the sea lanes of the Pacific and Indian Oceans and the Mediterranean. The two projects complement each other and together make up the BRI. http://english.gov.cn/beltAndRoad/

paragraph from current issue of journal of social business and youth economocs mooc


As Norman Macrae's 1984-2024 report outlines, this can be the key to all 7 purposeful sub-revolutions which need to be freed so that global village markets can joyfully co-create 3 billion jobs of the net generation

FREEDOM SEVENFOLD CONVERGENCE,  LET IT BE
7 Free the curriculum of Education, and smarten up media and mediation-value how knowledge multiplies in use unlike things that get consumed up
6 Free Value Chains of Clean Energy, Food and Water to be accessible within body's reach of desire -particularly infants' bodies
5 Free girl power by valuing the 21st C village nurse as the most trusted information networkers as well as valued servant
4 Free cashless banking to be an order of magnitude more impactful in crediting parents communal and youth's productive lifetimes
3 Free currencies and public servants from speculators vices and history's zero-sum value chains
2 Try to cross-culturally free the union of peace and economics by supporting youth in celebrating the vim of bottom-up and borderless heroes- yes we can do that if you value the curriculum of www.singforhope.org started out of New York as an alternative to 9/11 endgames
1 Value Multiply Exchanges around Do No harm professionals who systemically do most to  help open up maps of multi-win models by prioritising audits that stop externalisation of risks through boundaries- the most uneconomic ideology a borderless world or any species whose evolution nature values - could possibly be ruled by

Purpose of education in 21st C - why not 10 times more affordable edu for those youth (wherever they were born) who want productive working lifetimes and lifelong learning to blend seamlessly in a world where economics is designed to optimalise productive human lifetimes and sustainable communities and brilliantly collaborative peer to peer networks

Happy 2013 to all young people -and young at heart - as we celebrate the year of the MOOC

..........

40 years ago when dad (Norman Macrae, a leading pro-youth economist and founder of the Entrepreneurial Revolution genre at The Economist ) and I first saw 500 youth sharing knowledge around an early digital network, it seemed that by 2010s it would be economically possible to develop worldwide job-creating education so that:

  • in any practical course, everyone could have almost free access to content animated by the world's most successful teacher
  • that's the promise that MOOC is starting to free hopefully at an exponentially rising rate starting in  tertiary but linking all the way back through the education chain


...New Zealand and 10 million chinese families now have other 30 years of experimentation around this line of thinking wherever people linkin to http://thelearningweb.net..Most of the rest of the world's educational systems (search Ken Robinson youtubes:  schools kill creativity ,,, changing paradigms .... bringon the learning revolution  ... multiple intelligences)) have not yet been designed around the needs of children but have become trapped by government and educators trying to hold onto a 4 dimensional monoploy of acreditation, certification, knowledge production and distribution (see confession at brookings 2012)...

we foresee that any gamechanger to education such as MOOC changes the role of local teachers to much more tutoring as well as searching out when local context is different in terms of practical priorities and facilities ; however we also assume that many skills will be integrated around a series of mobile apps (something which again needs an open dialogue on when is there a world's best way and when do local ways need to be valued more) - help with the girl effect case study that has become Muhammad Yunus number 1 focus since winning the Nobel peace prize in 2006- will the village nurse be the 21st c world's most trusted information networker 

as part of a vibrant age of communities and knowledge networking, we also value that education should bring back every opportunity for involving parents and communities into transferring skills practices to our children, ending the separation that children only need to be taught by professional educators

its vital to accelerate experimentation of every role that MOOCs can play because the risk has always been that the internet will be suject to a hostile takeove by tv ad mass media before enough people realise the 10 times more economic possibilities  of smart jobs-creating educational media compared to the dumbing down age that tv ad mass media trapped the late 20th century in

for all these sorts of reasons we are surveying educational opinion leaders who want to unite round a call fpor microeducationsummit and we aim to identify how other education gamechangers eg youth entrepreneur competitions, and  free university paradigms win-win with the age of the MOOC

Twin revolutions at the start of the 21st century are shaking up the very idea of what it means to be human. Computer vision and image recognition are at the heart of the AI revolution. And CRISPR is a powerful new technique for genetic editing that allows humans to intervene in evolution.

Jennifer Doudna and Fei-Fei Li, pioneering scientists in the fields of gene editing and artificial intelligence, respectively, will be on stage discussing the ethics of scientific discovery.

Doudna, a professor of chemistry and molecular and cell biology at U.C. Berkeley, rocked the research world in 2012 when she and her colleagues announced the invention of CRISPR-Cas9, a technology that uses an RNA-guided protein found in bacteria to edit an organism's DNA quickly and inexpensively. Li is a professor of computer science at Stanford and co-director of the university's Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI). She served as director of Stanford’s AI Lab from 2013 to 2018, and during her sabbatical, she was Vice President at Google and served as Chief Scientist of AI/ML at Google Cloud. Li joined Stanford's faculty in 2009, and her main research areas are in machine learning, deep learning, computer vision and cognitive and computational neuroscience. She invented ImageNet and the ImageNet Challenge, a critical large-scale dataset and benchmarking effort that has contributed to the latest developments in deep learning and AI.

Moderating the discussion will be Russ Altman, the Kenneth Fong Professor of Bioengineering, Genetics, Medicine, Biomedical Data Science and (by courtesy) Computer Science at Stanford. He is the past chairman of the Bioengineering Department at Stanford University. His primary research interests are in the application of computing and informatics technologies to problems relevant to medicine. He hosts the Stanford Engineering program The Future of Everything.

2012 coming soon lot more oneducation

over 33 yeras we have debated education (livelihoods everyone as lifelong tecaher and learner) is pivotal to himan sustaonability - see also why adma smith clarified that western university education was never designed with youth as the custmer abd likely to be disatrous in times when much of the mlost valuable elarnking was new every few years as is the case as oiur mobile age accelerayes

when it comes to the un - the main education forum seem to be taaken ofver by the educaation system as normal- unesco is responsible foir gopal 4 reports that dont do the boxless kind of thinking thhjat the new head of unhabitat does in her filed

when gordon brown un envvoyfor education formed 30 national leaders of education commision only two led by jack m were concerend with changing tghe shytsm taking it outside teh calssroorm- the main group are concerend with more finds and another group try to match poor systems with better systems across analgous nations

jack ma soon found unctad more relevany- he is retaring hundreds of coders scouted by unctad and becoming alumni of his global bsuiess school - see also www.worldrecordjobs.comhttp://worldrecordjobs.com for more initaives jack does with the un concerened with putting youth in meiddle of what is innovated

jack ma has also said that hios ecooerce platforks while fine fir sme deskign of finance and of thisgs bought and sold- are noi the main pkatfirm fir happiness socail scetirs includinh educaytion health, arts and other community participation celebrations- he will focus on tehese from 2020 on with his olympics platform

some of the un eminent committes afre most concerned with education - others with new development banking
the unai (hsts about) 8 special interst groups in education which it also calls hibs- qatar which hosts wise also hose the unai refugee elarning hub- amma in india is assigned nanotechnolkgy research for the poor by world elading nanotech experts interest in including poverty in their compass

with guterres the head of in since start of 2-016 (the sdg era) - coming from lifetime serving refugees - elearning revolutions offer hope to refugees that classical system cant- the 2015 varkey million dolar teacher prize summit in duba hosted lot of outside system people

the worlds only model of community livelihood education kis brac - the summit oct 1-5 2018 will be fjurst chnace for academkics associated with jack ma and vrac to explore each lothers futures- brac was the inaugiral education lajureate at wise but the 2nd through 6th laureates have been within system people -however these profiles show that wise delegates from china in partiocula see edutech as innovation outside the system

one way to open up education youth eed is to look for mssing curricula and then cklatifu how best yo provide them

4 languagres (chinese englist mother tongue coding) need to be 10 times cheaper and this will come mainly freom peer to peer blended on;ine not classroom appriaches

financial ebtreprebeurial and open spoace literacies come from expereintial spaces not examination classrooms as do so many community microfrancjsies neeeding repliocation if youth livelihhods and being tyhe sustainability generation are to be matcjed
seeing bri as a curriculium of is our nation equkitably linked into the world suoerports and continent wkide gruds is also an example of a local to global cutrriu=iculum which needs quizes and maps shared across natin classrooms

the arctic crircles 8 nations are fantastic space for changing education - eg many schools are in remore places across north rissuis, niry canada alaska greenland idcelan- studnets are demanding tools such as augmented reality gooles so tey can experience coming to school as if they were in each others communities- watch the agedas of how innovation of education is being celebrated by youth of the 8 artci circle countreis

why mit would be norman macraes' and ER's fav spot to linkin 2013

some notes on what we love about visiting mit and student competitions are here: 1
other notes on a tour of mit norman macrae would love

as you likely know mit includes

berners lee and the web is for everyone

media lab, which began with $100 laptop is for every chilld but which now also experiments with the mobile is for every child and poorest village to transform value chains

start of massive online open curriculum

most prolific student competition space on the planet

world's number 1 job creating alumni network

dubai's most exciting youth entrepreneur research hub - legatum ...



rest of this section carries posts mainly sent to mit student networks especuially those due to linkin worldwide crowdfund searches of 2013 or student competition entries

as student crowdfund team mentioned they may be including Myanmar in their search , I thought you might be interested in attached attendee list: usaid circulation on launch of educational programs to myanmar

my family's life histories connect with myanmar and bangladesh as dads first job as a teenager was navigating raf planes in the region in world war 2 but while I have spent a lot of last 5 years understanding who's who in bangladesh - have never been to myanmar- sir fazle abed who won the first wise oscars of education -and my dad's friends at Japan Embassy in Dhaka - may call for a one day brainstorm on how to MOOC everything to do with bottom-up investment and youth collaboration models in march as phase 1 of calling for microeducationsummit (technology, education and credit) to converge post 2105 millennium goals summiting

back on myanmar- usaid appeared to say to 500 delegates Wash Dc Dec 2012 that they will mainly support a hybrid model of 4 partners - university and corporation both usa and in myanmar -this would seem to make it difficult to crowdfund myanmar unless a university in usa sets up a friendly space so that project by project the other 3: us corporate myanmar corporate, myanmar uni can be searched

another slight frustration of mine is that in dc region I am linking together several people and embassies studying how to turn orphanages into regional job creating hubs- i would have thought that myanmar might want to join in studying that model but usaid-process is making that quite hard for an individual like me to issue invitation

naila chowdhury and shafqat ullah are 2 people who guide me through what open technology can do out of bangladesh
-naila currently lives in dc region after serving grameenphone and ceo yunus technology for a long time-she and I are judges at next week's 4 yunus statewide student entrepreneur compettiion in alabama which also aims to startup the yunus university of ending poverty

shafqat links bangladeshi wizard technologists and is talking with brilliant/skoll on how ILABS can be extended across region given start made in Cambodia

apologies if too many choices mapped above - trying editorially to get both yunus and abed family members to open up all their knowledge in moocs in under one quarter is likely to mean that young people need to choose where they want to linkin and massively collaborate

there are also some fascinating green energy collaborations being written up for moocworld- i recall that when melissa launched social valuation student networking across region 4 years ago, a nobel laureate from uni of maryland declared inteerest in reconciling a green marshall plan- maryland also has some brilliant chinese students concerned with bottom up green energy networking as I found out at a recent brookings meeting on subject; the sainsbury supermarket philanthropy are a family friend back in london- with prince charles they run microenergy awards at http://ashden.org which needs to be turned into a mooc in my opinion - journalisticly, not too hard for them to do as their family are also major shareholders in The Economist; also interesting is that one of the 2 retiring student ceos of mit100k is passionate about green while the other is being headhunted by samsung out of south korea' and the theme of the yunus prize at mit this year is education
-as geo-serendipity would have it the other norman macrae in my family tree started life as a missionary in korea

bbc- why not world service of poverty museum reality games and info

back in 1984, norman solution for making sure enough family investors and youth chose heroic goals to-produce with being digitally connected was the bbc (the largest investment public have ever made in braidcasting) could run reality tv rograms -poverty museum apprentices before american pop singing idols- as well as prepare or truly celebrating millennnium goals

sources emerging on why not future of bbc -and indeed all major public media partners norman also expected to partner - back in 1984 india's dd having 2nd greatest reach

http://notimeleft.org  http://africa24tv.com various end the disaster movie from skoll/brilliant begun by inconveneint truth ....
=================================================================
transparency note -while normans family were only ispired by genius like dr yunus and sir fazle abed to start up Noramn Macrae Family Foundation in his last 2 years (2008 on)- Norman helped found WorldClassBrands on his formal retiremnt from The Economist in 1988 -for particularly young media men and women who believe media can improve the human lot - these days WCB is just one of NMFOUND projects

.Examples of multi-win and exponential sustaining models..
patient capital - ie where investors win-win with organisational purpose and 10-year exponential growth not quarterly extraction

100% social busienss model

51& social business model

conscious capitalism model

half-generation industry sector transformation models

a model for ensuring last gamechanger in industry is retained over time for radical win-win modeling even as there is either a luddite or speculator or fatally conceited academic's   war to prevent the innovation that most people want for the futire

..Quiz- What type of model to use ?
M-goals developing world
1  to aid place with half-generation project in areas with no infrastructure and no spare organisation
2 to resolve poverty in place wher big internal corporates have history of extraction
3 where the development challenge is not lack of wealth or lack of local orgainisiational capacity but a demographic who have been traeteted as underclass

In developed world
where elders have destroyed budgets so there are no prospects for youth to grow

where a whole industry chain needs replacing if country is to be sustainable for next generations

where collaboration knowledge networking could be 10 times more productive than siloised owneship of pieces of knowledge

nb problem will often involve many of these challenges at smae time as those with a bank of funds will not be able to choose only one type

Borderless Youth Peacemakers

They will need to have cross-culturally correct access to curriculum vitae of history's greatest goodwill leaders and servants of humanity as well as 100 leaders of 2010s investing in youth co-productiions of what collaboration tech can make youth's most productive, sustainable and heroic time

Warning: if commentary below offends you - look at some of our other content as this piece is only important if you can feel comfy with it- the fact that reconciliation practices are not widely integrated into economics decision-makers recent behaviours scares me as a maths guy. To see what we mean from a socially grounded guy,- refer to harrison owen www.practiceofpeace.com  or if need be I am chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk

What Keynes General Theory does : explains connections between peace and system design, and warns youth to be vigilant against academic economics gurus whose potentially fatal vanities combined with advising big decision-makers compounds the world's greatest risks. That's why our list of conscious system leaders includes 8 economists or maths guys whose ideas had pro-youth impacts wherever they were used. When you choose local leaders that needs much more cross-cultural future history sense than we claim to have so we have kept to four we believe did more than any peoples had the right to expect from a human being. We have added 2 practice leaders Mother Theresa in healthcare and Montessori in schools - we realise there are many more practitioners to praise but those two have lifetimes we believe all youth ought to know. 
What Kaiser Wilhem did was be in the wrong place for carelessness that spun over half a century of wars out of Europe. He wasn't evil like a Hitler or a Stalin but he was situated at a time when many crises of the industrial age had been spinning and he was at the top of the whole house of cards. Ditto George Bush - everyone around in the 21st C today has peacemaking problems to solve that someone less careless than Bush might not have compounded. However if you side with George Bush and believe he had an impossible job then you are concluding that there are systems that are not too big to fail but too big to exist. And this is arguably our great post-industrial problem- today we are the first generation who can scale systems that rival nature's in planetary size. In doing that we run the risk that she will decide the human race is the next dodo. We need a majortiy of worldwide youth to be peacemakers - ie capable of cross-cultural celebration through every community. Interestingly the Lucknow City Montessori schooling system nurtures 50000 youth at any ine time being the only schooling system run by the Gandhi family www.cmseducation.org  with major peace prizes. It is a curriculum worth every youth connecting with


Discussion questions
what is phony capitalism
what in social or political context are examples of forbidden questions
to take a relatively trivial case of bush's destruction of freedom of speech begin with the dixie chicks case, how do you contrast it with Putin Pussy Riot case

from the point of view of statistics, the end 2000 election race between bush and gore was a dead heat- do you think world would be in a whollt different place if Gore had led USA into 21st C -discuss with someone who holds an opposite view as a person not as a member of either party  

footnote- more on Lucknow
The Largest school in terms of pupils is the City Montessori School in Lucknow, India, which had a record enrolment of 39,437 children on 9 August 2010 for the 2010-11 academic year. The school admits boys and girls between ages two and five, who can then continue their education to degree level. In 2002, it won the UNESCO Prize for peace way since Jagdish Gandhi and his wife Bharti first opened it in 1959 with a loan of just 300 rupees ($63, £22). Then it had a grand total of five pupils!


s.korea: Lim Globalizing Asia (2007)The negative impacts of top-down economic globalization have shown us that the structural adjustment programs end with social dissolution, political decay, and economic stagnation. Given this, this article suggests, tentatively, an alternative development paradigm for Globalizing Asia: the “stakeholder model” of capitalism. This model highlights the critical role of NGOs in committing themselves to the organized interests of the peoples public goods.

The Rise of Asia
:More than thirty years ago, Norman Macrae (1975), who was then the deputy editor of the Economist, talked about the coming of the “Pacific Century.” According to him, the world had gone through the “British Century” (1775-1875), the “American Century” (1875-1975), and now was entering the “Pacific Century” (1975-2075?). Asia was seen as a newly rising leader in the international political and economic system. Its extraordinary vitality has forced development scholars and practitioners to “ReOrient” the history of capitalist development in the region.
