ASU项目如何执行，FLIS的教师们又如何在该项目中帮助学子更好地掌握网课内容？我们采访了几位ASU项目老师，还请听他们为大家一一道来。

How is the ASU program implemented, and how do FLIS faculty members in the program help students better grasp the content of online classes? We interviewed some ASU program teachers, let's get more details about it!

ASU提供200多个在线课程和证书课程，由屡获殊荣的ASU教职团队进行授课，其在线教育在全美名列前茅。谈到在线教育的优势，ASU扩展校区执行副教务长兼教育计划院长曾表示，与线下课程相比，线上课程对课堂纪律有更多的要求。研究表明，线上教育可以设置更多的互动环节，此外，学生课后拥有丰富的时间去实践，为上课做了更充分的准备。如今，高中&学院部2023-2024秋季学期已宣告结束，12月底，就读ASU项目的FLIS学子也结合四门课程（数学/社会学/微观经济学/英语学术写作）开展项目研究，从选题到收集阅读文献、实地调查、分析数据、撰写报告，他们关心的课题包罗万象：平衡学业与生活的策略、美食营销对青少年饮食习惯与营养学认知的影响、股票分析与推荐……最终，学子们以一场汇报展示了自己的学习成果。

ASU offers more than 200 online courses and certificate programs taught by the award-winning ASU faculty and staff, and its online education ranks among the best in the nation. When it comes to the benefits of online education, the University Dean for Educational Initiatives and CEO of EdPlus at ASU has said that online courses can require more discipline than on-campus courses. Research finds classroom interaction can increase in online settings and diverse practicum experiences prepare students beyond simple instruction. Now that the fall semester 2023-2024 of the High School and Academy has been declared over, FLIS students enrolled in the ASU program also finished project research in conjunction with four courses (Mathematics/Sociology/Microeconomics/English Academic Composition) at the end of December. From choosing a topic to collecting and reading literature, conducting fieldwork, analyzing data, and writing reports, they interacted with a wide range of topics: strategies for balancing academics and life, the impact of food advertising on teenagers' eating habits and nutrition knowledge, stock behavior analysis and recommendation- to name just a few. Eventually, students demonstrated their learning outcomes with a presentation.

从八月中旬在将乐天籁蛟湖国际研学基地拉开序幕，到圣诞节前以研究项目汇报为一学期学习画上句号，FLIS学子也对ASU项目感受良多。一起听听他们的体会！

From kicking off the semester in mid-August at the Jiao-Hu Skylark Field Studies Center in Jiangle, to wrapping up the semester with a research project presentation before Christmas, FLIS students also have a lot to say about the ASU program.

此外，部分ASU项目学子已于去年末收获美澳顶尖学府Offer。恭喜！未来，FLIS仍将与各位在教育之路上携手同行，静待更多好消息传来！

In addition, some of the ASU program students received offers from top universities in the U.S. and Australia at the end of last year- congratulations! FLIS will continue to work hand in hand with you on your educational journey and look forward to more good news in the future!
