ASDAN Global Discovery Programs
ASDAN China and Discovery Education have officially collaborated to introduce the rich educational resources of Discovery into global discovery. Through activity design, this collaboration aims to innovate traditional educational models and create high-quality interdisciplinary learning experiences in science, STEM, humanities, and social sciences.
Knowledge→Action→Empower→Growth→Recognition
The ASDAN Global Discovery Programs aims to discover the potential of each student, cultivate independent awareness and core competencies through social and natural exploration.
Langkawi Marine Ecology Expedition
Langkawi, with its crystal-clear waters and blue skies, awaits only the wind and the sea.
Located at the northern end of the Malacca Strait, Langkawi offers a tranquil seaside. As Malaysia's largest group of islands, Langkawi presents an endless panorama of blue and green—flawless azure skies, deep blue waters, and lush tropical vegetation. The young explorers will engage in coral and mangrove planting, visit local schools for friendly exchanges with students, contribute to beach conservation efforts, and actively participate in marine protection initiatives.

Why Us
Official Collaboration and Authoritative Certificates
This project is based on the science curriculum and certification system of the Award Scheme Development and Accreditation Network (ASDAN) and Discovery Education. After completing the project, students will receive three authoritative certificates: ASDAN UK Certificate, Discovery Education Certificate, and ASDAN Global Discovery Certificate.
Diversified Activities: Exciting Exploration by "Junior Science Explorers"
From mysterious rainforests to boundless oceans, from ancient ceramics to precious artifacts, whether in social sciences or environmental ecology, students can freely choose interested activities, enhancing their knowledge and practical skills.
Interdisciplinary Scientific Knowledge: Studying within the STEM/Science Curriculum Framework
The ages of 11-15 are a crucial period for personality formation, witnessing a deeper understanding of interdisciplinary knowledge in STEM. Through a hands-on approach, students will explore a wide range of museum knowledge in natural science, geography, physics, biology, humanities, archaeology, astronomy, art, language, etc., experiencing the joy of integrating science into life. They will expand horizons and cultivate curiosity, leadership, teamwork, and resilience.
Outcomes of Project-Based Learning: Discovery Science Portfolio
The project emphasizes academic output. Each student will complete works such as expedition logs, workshops and presentations, public performance, recording their highlights of exploration and materials for future studies. Submit your work to the MILSET STEM Photo Contest to win global awards!
Support: Professional Team and Fun Workshops
Collaborating with local conservation areas, organizations, and cultural institutions with years of experience, each program will be equipped with professional leaders. They will guide students to complete diversified explorations to experience the daily work of science explorers. This includes discovery science storytelling, teamwork, and other workshops.
Safety: Ensuring Safety
With extensive local experience, leaders will accompany students throughout the expedition. Our accommodations prioritize safety, cleanliness, and hygiene. All students have access to medical and travel insurance, and in case of illness, staff will immediately accompany students to the hospital and handle insurance matters. Before the expedition, a check-list and safety guide will be provided, and a risk assessment will be conducted for the activity site.
