Worldschooling: Homeschooling Away from Home
Abstract
Worldschooling is a form of home education, where travel takes the place of school.
Worldschooling can be done alone, with family and friends, or more formally through a
program called Project World School. The mission of Project World School is to provide
learning retreats for adolescents and young adults with a strong emphasis on cooperative
learning, co-creation, community, and social learning. This article is a review and analysis of
the five retreats Project World School took in 2016, based on pre and post experience
questionnaires filled out by the participants. A discussion of the challenges and benefits of
worldschooling is also included within the article
