What you'll learn

Accelerated College Courses (ACC) are freshman-level courses developed by ASU faculty and can count towards a variety of majors from engineering to business. Through this program, students can earn transferable ASU credit from anywhere in the world. All credits earned will apply to ASU and any accepting university. Courses are taken online and open to everyone, from High school leaners to high school leavers to adult leaners. No application fee, transcript or SAT, TOEFL, IELTS required to start the program.

The Living World is an innovative course with a format different from most online courses. It is built around interactive activities with rich adaptive feedback. These are not videos or simple readings and quizzes. Usually they are problem-solving activities through which you will be introduced to key concepts, and master them, in a question-driven ‘learn-by-doing’ approach. Often they will be designed around game-like simulations that you can manipulate, or virtual field trips that you can explore. In some ways, these activities can feel like a serious game! That’s not an accident: that’s in fact how the pursuit of science feels to professional scientists.

All activities and assessments occur within the interactive BioBeyond Learnspace, which includes modules and associated point values.

This course includes a lab and satisfies 4 credit hours toward the Natural Science – Quantitative (SQ) General Studies requirement at Arizona State University. It is strongly encouraged that you consult with your institution of choice to determine how these credits will be applied to their degree requirements prior to transferring your credit.
