ASC International have hit the road again attending events in Australia and Japan to encourage international students back to Australia and highlighting the successful hybrid study options developed during border restrictions. ASC International staff attended ICEF ANZA, an international education event held in Adelaide that hosted agents from around the world and education providers from Australia and New Zealand. Attending with a large StudyPerth delegation, ASCI was well received as one of few providers offering options for students from Kindergarten through to Senior Secondary school. Next year’s event will be hosted in Perth in April. ICEF ANZA Vice President Rod Hearps said it would be Perth’s first time hosting this hybrid event, and was expected to draw more than 300 education agents from over 60 countries.

Meanwhile, ASCI’s use of hybrid communications over the past few years was a topic of discussion in Microsoft’s Education Day as ASCI Director of International Kate Simeon presented on hybrid and blended learning.

“Hybrid education can offer students with accessibility requirements, language learners and students with extended absences engagement opportunities,” Miss Simeon said.

“Hybrid learning is or should be here to stay; it can do amazing things for our students.” ASCI’s Language School has been implementing and using effective hybrid learning systems since 2020, and during a recent visit to Japan staff were inspired to see a strong and successful adoption of hybrid learning at N and S High School campuses in Tokyo. Providing students flexible timetables gives N and S High School opportunities to engage with the ASCI Language School remotely. ASCI’s Tokyo visit included connecting with Japanese agents, alumni students, as well as engagements with partner schools. ASCI will welcome 11 immersion Japanese students from Mejiro Kenshin High School in Term 1, 2023. “It is great that one of our students Ishikawa, will be able to study with the ASCI Language School remotely in term one while he completes his sporting commitments in Japan” Mejiro Teacher Ken Ip said. “The other ten students are thrilled to have a choice of four ASC schools to attend in January 2023, we look forward to it.”
