WorldStrides
was the first accredited student travel company in the world. Accreditation
recognizes educational institutions for performance, integrity,
and quality that entitles them to the confidence of the educational
community and the public. WorldStrides was founded by educators
and travel professionals whose goal is to extend education into
the worldwide classroom and provide the best opportunities for learning
through seeing, experiencing, and interacting. Committed to helping
teachers teach and helping students learn, WorldStrides offers unique
enhancements to classroom instruction.
Learning through personal experience takes education to a higher
level. Through educational travel, students use knowledge acquired
in the classroom to analyze the world around them and make a personal
connection by applying their knowledge to their understanding and
view of the future.
…students learn the fundamentals of how a Bill becomes a Law.
When students come to Washington, D.C. they take learning to a higher
level when they walk through the Capitol and sit in the Congressional
or Senate galleries where our laws are made.
…students start to understand the tragedy of an assassination
of an American President, yet the power of this event becomes "real"
when standing in Ford's Theater or at Kennedy's grave in Arlington
National Cemetery.
…students read about unique marine life and the interdependence
of living things on their environment. Students on a WorldStrides
program truly begin to understand each person's relationship with
our planet as they snorkel off the coast of a Barrier Island in
Florida and see starfish, sea urchins, and sand dollars in their
natural environment.
…students learn about space exploration and the laws of physics.
With WorldStrides, students explore Kennedy Space Center, see the
International Space Station, and man the control room for a mock
shuttle launch.
Focused educational travel with a WorldStrides Course Leader
enables learning to come to life.
