Students are responsible for having their own course approval conversations with their advisors. Your study abroad advisor and 슬롯머신 staff can help you understand your course options if you don't see a recommendation that fits your course needs.

Academic Culture

Each six-week course is a full semester in content, so the pace is accelerated, and the workload is demanding. 슬롯머신 courses are designed to follow U.S. academic culture and standards. The class environment typically features a combination of traditional lectures and discussions with co-curricular excursions and activities. Heavy emphasis is placed on student participation. To avoid falling behind, students should not plan personal travel out of Kyoto when classes are in session and plan trips for the long weekends in between blocks. 

ASU Courses: You may find yourself in classes with students from ASU, other American universities, and students from around the world. Some are earning their degrees entirely online, while others, like you, are supplementing their education with an online course. You슬롯사이트™ll receive direct and individualized support from faculty, 100% online. Most ASU online courses are asynchronous, meaning there are no set log-in times, but make sure to verify this before the add/drop deadline in case you want to make a change.

Class Format

Courses taught at the 슬롯머신 Kyoto Center are typically for 슬롯머신 students only, although Japanese students from partner Shiga University may 슬롯사이트“ when schedules and GPA/English capabilities permit 슬롯사이트“ participate and take courses as well.슬롯사이트¯Classes are scheduled Monday through Friday and meet either two, three, or four times per week, and attendance is strictly enforced both for classes and required co-curricular excursions. Students should expect an average of two hours of preparation required for each hour in class. Instruction is supported and augmented online by our learning management system, Canvas.슬롯사이트¯Some courses may be facilitated as a슬롯사이트¯Hybrid슬롯사이트¯course by an instructor from a location that is separate from your own. In a Hybrid슬롯사이트¯course, you will learn either face-to-face or online, depending on your location. 

ASU online courses meet in 슬롯사이트œsessions슬롯사이트 that are 7.5 weeks long in semesters and 6 weeks long in the summer, and all work must be completed within the session dates regardless of when your other 슬롯머신 courses begin or end. You슬롯사이트™ll need a standard PC or Mac desktop or laptop computer with a download speed higher than 25 Mbps, as well as access to email, productivity software like Microsoft Office and other applications needed to perform a variety of educational functions. Most course materials you will need are available online. Since you are working mostly or entirely asynchronously, you슬롯사이트™re given deadlines for your assignments by your instructor or in your syllabus, but you can work at your own pace within these due dates. Most instructors suggest a recommended pace to optimize your learning, but you have the flexibility to complete your ASU courses while pursuing your studies at your 슬롯머신 location.

Grading

The U.S. grading scale of A-F is used. 슬롯사이트¯Students are graded on the basis of attendance, class participation, homework, project work, presentations, and mid-term and final examinations. 슬롯사이트¯Learning outcomes assessment is continuous through personal reflections, evaluation feedback, self-assessment, and requirements as set out in course syllabi. 

ASU grading follows the same format and standards as ASU courses taught in-person. As a U.S. institution of higher education, the grading practices should be familiar to any 슬롯머신 student. ASU awards grades of "A+," "A," "A-," "B+," " B," "B-," "C+," "C," "D," or "E.슬롯사이트 슬롯사이트œPass/fail슬롯사이트 or 슬롯사이트œAudit슬롯사이트 is not allowed for 슬롯머신 students. Please see the 슬롯머신 Academic Manual for Students for more information about your grades.

Individual courses may have additional prerequisites; for 슬롯머신 courses, these are listed in the syllabi below. Students are responsible for having their own course approval conversations with their advisors. Your study abroad advisor and 슬롯머신 staff can help you understand your course options if you don't see a recommendation that fits your course needs.
