"Education is an adventure and the world is an education," proclaims The Backpacking Family, and they couldn't be more right!
Worldschooling is an exciting approach to learning that transforms the entire globe into your child's classroom.
What is Worldschooling?
Imagine this: history lessons come alive through exploring ancient ruins, geography unfolds on hikes through diverse landscapes, and languages are learned by conversing with locals. This is the essence of worldschooling – learning through immersive, real-world experiences. Families who choose this path use travel and the world's rich tapestry of cultures, resources, and experiences to educate, inspire, and empower their children.
The World at Your Fingertips:
One of the core goals of worldschooling is to expose children to a wealth of knowledge and perspectives beyond the confines of traditional classrooms. It fosters a deep appreciation for different cultures and broadens their skill sets through hands-on learning.
Travel or No Travel? You Decide!
The beauty of worldschooling lies in its flexibility. While some may envision worldschooling as a life of constant globetrotting, others embrace the philosophy within their own communities. Museums, local farms, historical sites – these can all become vibrant learning spaces. Ultimately, the key is to cultivate a love of learning through intentional experiences, whether near or far.
Tailored Learning for Every Explorer:
Worldschooling allows families to personalize their child's education. You're free to choose a curriculum that aligns with your child's interests and learning style. This fosters a deeper engagement with the subject matter and paves the way for lifelong learning.
A World of Travel Styles:
Just like families come in all shapes and sizes, so do worldschooling families! Whether you're digital nomads working remotely, slow travelers savoring every location, or embarking on a family gap year, there's a worldschooling approach that fits your lifestyle.
