Back in October 2011, Stanford professors launched three
free online courses, open to the public. One by one, these courses
went massive, with enrollments topping 100.000 students each.
Soon the media was calling these courses MOOCs, short for
massive open online courses.
Since then, more than 1.200 universities around the world
have launched free online courses. In addition to the larger global
MOOC platforms, many national governments around the world
have launched their own country-specific MOOC platforms,
including India, Italy, Israel, Mexico and Thailand.
After a decade of popularization, in 2021, over
220 million students had signed up for at least one course on one
of these platforms, and 40 million did so in 2021 alone. MOOCs
and MOOC platforms are still growing, even after the crazy
“Year of the MOOC” prompted by the pandemic and travel
restrictions.
At Class Central, we try to catalog as many MOOCs as
possible, and our listing currently includes more than 150.000 of
them, from MOOC platforms and other online learning
platforms. But due to limited resources, we cannot index every
single one. If you’re looking for MOOCs from around the world,
this list is our best attempt to catalog all different MOOC
platforms that are out there.

The verb “prompted” (in the second sentence of the third

ESL Teaching and Post-Pandemic: What Changed?
Altiné Moumouni
The pandemic that started in 2019 has shaken the world, and it
has transformed the way we interact, the way we work, and even
made us appreciate the simplest things we took for granted.
1. Pandemic creates shortage of qualified ESL teachers
Currently, there are still fewer ESL teachers willing to travel
abroad and teach ESL. At the same, countries like the USA
experience a massive reduction in ESL teachers. About 44% of public
schools in the USA declare they need at least one teacher, and 61%,
particularly of these vacancies, are due to the COVID-19 pandemic,
including 51% resignations and 21% retirements (Source:
Usnews.com).
2. Pandemic increases uncertainty among ESL teachers
The pandemic increased the level of uncertainty as nobody
actually knows what will happen next. The best way to prepare is to
invest in yourself and become a better teacher.
3. Parents may experience income reduction
Most countries, including the USA, will experience postpandemic recession, reducing households’ discretionary spending for
education. This may lead to fewer private tutoring jobs available for
ESL teachers. In addition, some ESL students may need to drop out
of school to support their families.
4. ESL teachers less sure about teaching as a career
A study from the Brookings Institution found that, during the
pandemic, teachers have become less confident about their career
choices. The researchers found that many teachers considered
leaving or retiring during the 2020-2021 academic year.
5. Pandemic increases role of technology in ESL learning
One of the biggest issues is the increased role of technology in
ESL learning. In most western countries, including the UK, Canada,
and the United States, many ESL students have at least some access
to electronic devices and internet.

Text 3: Extreme heat intensifies across south-west US
A heat dome over the US south-west has translated (1) into extreme heat warnings from coast to coast,
which continue to affect more than 110 million people.
Temperature records could be broken in as many as 38 cities.
In Las Vegas, the intense heatwave is threatening on Sunday to break or tie the city's record high of 117F
(47.2C).
It comes as soaring temperatures are also hitting southern Europe and Canada is battling the worst season of
wildfires in its history.
Scientists have long warned (2) that climate change linked to human activities will lead to an increase in the
severity and frequency of extreme weather events.
Elsewhere in the south-western US, hundreds of firefighters have been battling brush fires in blistering heat
and low humidity on the outskirts of Los Angeles.

Text 01 - Social Practices: Types and Practices of Language.
The social practices
They are habits and ways of doing things that are established in a society and are practiced in the same way
by all its inhabitants. These practices differ from one culture to another and, therefore, behaving in the same
way in two different societies can lead to misunderstandings.
Because they are only implicit agreements about the way of doing things, no social practice is correct or
incorrect. The adaptation of the social practices will have to do with the place and the moment in which they
are carried out; for that reason it does not make sense to think that the practices of another society are wrong.
Social practices are built over the years and are modified as time passes. Therefore, what is common in today's
society has nothing to do with the way in which it was correct to behave several decades ago. This means that
social practices are not immutable either, but are always subject to change.

Audit data analytics, machine learning, and full population
testing
Technologies are evolving at an unprecedented pace and pose
significant challenges and opportunities to companies and related
parties, including the accounting profession. In today’s business
environment, it is inevitable for companies to react quickly to
changing conditions and markets. Many companies are seeking
better ways to utilize emerging technologies to transform how
they conduct business. We live in an age of information
explosion, with technologies capable of making revolutionary
changes in various industries and reshaping business models. At
present, many companies view data as one of their most valuable
assets. They amass an unprecedented amount of data from their
daily business operation and strive to harness the power of data
through analytics. Emerging technologies like robotic process
automation, machine learning, and data analytics also impact the
accounting profession. It is important for the profession to
understand the impacts, opportunities, and challenges of these
technologies.
Specifically, in audit and assurance areas, data analytics and
machine learning will lead to many changes in the foreseeable
future. Audit sampling is one such potential change. The use of
sampling in audits has been criticized since it only provides a
small snapshot of the entire population. To address this major
issue, this study introduces the idea of applying audit data
analytics and machine learning for full population testing through
the concept of “audit-by-exception” and “exceptional
exceptions.” In this way, the emphasis of audit work shifts from
“transaction examination” to “exception examination” and
prioritizes the exceptions based on different criteria.
Consequently, auditors can assess the associated risk based on
the entire population of the transactions and thus enhance the
effectiveness and efficiency of the audit process.

Text 3A4
During the last century water infrastructure projects
involving large dams played a major role in the socio-economic
transformation of many countries. At the same time, in a
significant number of cases the benefits were not shared
equitably, and the negative impacts on the environmental and
sociocultural structures were excessive. In some cases their
economic performance was questionable. Diverging views have
arisen on the merits and demerits of dams, the roles they play,
and their alternatives in providing water and energy services.
However, recognition that such roles are complementary rather
than mutually exclusive has been growing as the dam debate has
moved forward.
It is envisaged that, as part of the global effort to improve
water and energy supplies, more dams will be constructed,
especially in developing countries, alongside other diverse
alternatives. There will, consequently, be a need to enhance the
benefits of dams and avoid many of their drawbacks by applying
better decision-making processes within the overall framework
of sustainability. There are complex issues around the planning
and management of dams in the context of sustainable
development which will need to be adequately considered and
addressed to achieve sustainable outcomes.
Dealing with the environmental and social challenges
within the context of meeting water and energy needs is at the
heart of the sustainability of projects involving dams. Dams are
one of the options, structural or non-structural, available to meet
specific water or energy needs. In many cases water and energy
services are best provided through a mix of options. Each case is
different. A decision to build a dam should emerge after a
comprehensive assessment of the full range of available options,
giving appropriate consideration to all aspects of sustainability.

Decision-making. Nairobi: The Secretariat of the Dams and Development Project, 2007. p. 10-1 (adapted).
