What inspires students to learn?
EF’s Personalized Learning Guide
Personalized learning powered by your students’ curiosity
Our Personalized Learning Guide creates a more engaging learning experience by helping students put a more personal lens on their tour. And it’s available for free—contact your EF Experience Specialist for more information.
Guiding question
How did the colonization of Ecuador in the past affect the culture of its indigenous people today?
Guiding question
How effective is nonverbal communication, specifically musical communication, and what factors make it particularly attractive?
Guiding question
How does global warming affect Iceland, and what is this country's response to the issue?
Students engage on a deeper level when what they’re learning connects to their own lives. Our learning guide makes sure it happens on tour.
Powered by students
Before, during, and after tour, our Personalized Learning Guide taps into each student’s own passions and interests. Whether they’re excited by ancient history or modern architecture, it connects their interests to your destination and helps them develop an essential question to investigate while traveling. Post-tour projects let students reflect on and share what they’ve learned, and they can even earn academic credit (which looks great on college applications and resumes).
Designed by educators
EF is fully accredited, and our Personalized Learning Guide is built for real educational impact. Our all-star teaching staff created the guided learning model and accompanying rubric to help students hone critical skills such as communication and cultural awareness. As a teacher, you can choose to let students work independently or help them along the way.
