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.

Read the text below to answer the question:
ICEBERG A68a
An enormous iceberg that is heading toward the island of South Georgia in the southern Atlantic Ocean has broken up into three large chunks. Scientists from NASA have been tracking the berg - dubbed A68a - for several weeks. It actually calved from the Larsen C ice shelf in 2017 and has been floating northwards ever since. In recent weeks, a fast-moving stream of water known as the Southern Antarctic Circumpolar Current Front has put the chunks on a trajectory that means they could run aground off the coast of South Georgia. Scientists say the three fragments are roughly 2,600 square kilometres in size. The submerged part of one chunk is 106 metres at its thickest point.
The sheer bulk of the three iceberg chunks poses a serious threat to the wildlife of South Georgia. There could be an environmental catastrophe waiting to happen. If the three mini icebergs collide with the seabed, they could obstruct penguins and seals from foraging for fish. They could also block the route between penguin colonies and their feeding grounds during the breeding season. Scientists worry the underside of the fragments could grind the seabed near South Georgia and disrupt delicate underwater ecosystems. This could be exacerbated by the introduction of a mass of fresh water to the ecosystems as the stationary fragments melt over the summer months.

Police and Human Rights – Manual for Police Training
How can respecting human rights help the police?
Respect for human rights by law enforcement agencies actually enhances the effectiveness of those agencies. Where human rights are systematically respected, police officers have developed professionalism in their approaches to solving and preventing crime and maintaining public order. In this sense, respect for human rights by police is, in addition to being a moral, legal and ethical imperative, also a practical requirement for law enforcement. When the police are seen to respect, uphold and defend human rights:
• Public confidence is built and community cooperation fostered.
• Legal prosecutions are successful in court.
• Police are seen as part of the community, performing a valuable social function.
• The fair administration of justice is served, and, consequently, confidence in the system.
• An example is set for respect for the law by others in the society.
• Police are able to be closer to the community, and, therefore, in a position to prevent and solve crimes through proactive policing.
• Support is elicited from the media, from the international community, and from higher authorities.
• A contribution is made to the peaceful resolution of conflicts and complaints.
An effective police service is one that serves as the first line of defense in the protection of human rights. Its members carry out their work in a way, which does not rely upon fear and raw power but, on the contrary, is based on regard for the law, honor, and professionalism.
What role does training play in protecting human rights?
The effective training of police in human rights is an essential element in the global efforts to promote and protect human rights in every country. In order to protect human rights, the police must first know and understand them. Furthermore, police officers must be familiar with the various international guidelines and bodies of principles – such as the Code of Conduct for law enforcement officials and the principles on the use of force and firearms – and be able to use them as tools in their everyday work. They must understand the fact that international human rights standards concerning their work were developed to provide invaluable guidance for the performance of their crucial functions in a democratic society. However, police officers in the line of duty should know not only what the rules are, but also how to do their job effectively within the confines of those rules.
Doesn’t concern for human rights hinder effective police work?
Most people have heard the argument that respect for human rights is somehow opposed to effective law enforcement. And effective law enforcement means to capture the criminal. And to secure his conviction, it is necessary to “bend the rules” a little. A tendency to use overwhelming force in controlling demonstrations, physical pressure to extract information from detainees, or excessive force to secure an arrest can be observed now and then. In this way of thinking, law enforcement is a war against crime, and human rights are merely obstacles thrown in the path of the police by lawyers and NGOs. In fact, violations of human rights ––– 78––– police only make the already challenging task of law enforcement ––– 79––– . When the law enforcer ––– 80––– the lawbreaker, the result is an assault on human dignity, on the law itself and on all institutions of public authority.

A Mayor on Easter Island Is Up in Arms After a
Runaway Pickup Truck Knocked Over a Sacred
Statue
(1º§)Archaeologists have long assumed that the ancient
society that erected the colossal Moai figures on Chile's
Rapa Nui, better known as Easter Island, collapsed many
centuries ago. Now, a new study indicates that the
islanders' civilization was still going strong when
Europeans arrived in 1722.
(2º§)The island was settled in the 13th century by
Polynesians, and is known __ the famed Easter Island
"heads" (many of the bodies have been buried by erosion
over the centuries).
(3º§)The research, which appears in the Journal of
Archaeological Science, contests the accepted timeline
that the Easter Island society was already in decline by
the year 1600 and its massive stone statues left to fall
into disrepair.
(4º§)Conducting radiocarbon dating on 11 sites __ Easter
Island, the authors determined the timeline of each
monument's construction. Their findings indicate that
Easter Islanders were still actively building new Moai
figures, and maintaining existing ones, up until at least
1750.s of fresh water-a precious resource. As well as
moments to their ancestors, it turns out they may have
also served a more utilitarian purpose.
(5º§)Further supporting these results are historical
documents __ the island's first European visitors. Written
accounts from the Dutch explorers who arrived in 1722
found that the monuments were in active ritual use, with
no signs of decline, and the same goes for the Spaniards
who landed in 1770. It was only in 1774 that James Cook
found the giant statues in ruins and the figures knocked
over.
(6º§)"The way we interpret our results and this sequence
of historical accounts is that the notion of a pre-European
collapse of monument construction is no longer
supported," lead author Robert DiNapoli told Archaeology
& Arts.
(7º§)"Once Europeans arrive on the island, there are
many documented tragic events due to disease, murder,
slave raiding and other conflicts," added co-author Carl
Lipo. "The degree to which [the Rapa Nui people's]
cultural heritage was passed on-and is still present today
through language, arts, and cultural practices-is quite
notable and impressive. I think this degree of resilience
has been overlooked due to the collapse narrative and
deserves recognition."
