SelfDesign Curriculum
SelfDesign - Curriculum that can keep pace with global change.
SelfDesign offers the most customizable curriculum in the world. Your dedicated SelfDesign Learning Consultant will guide you in designing a curriculum tailored to the exact interests and needs of your child based on the SelfDesign LifeMap.
We believe that life is an enthusiastic exploration for depth, excellence, and interconnectedness. Life itself provides the curriculum for learning. Individual courses and resources supplement life's curriculum, and are chosen at the will of the learner for specific support rather than as a framework from which learning is supposed to happen.
SelfDesign is currently offering a full range of Courses for learners ages 14-18. Learn more.
Benefits of the SelfDesign Curriculum
- Allows learning to be seen as emergent, supporting the fact that children learn at differing speeds, in differing stages, using differing styles. Skills often emerge over a two- or three-year period, and this model doesn't measure for success, failure, or the need for remediation over a one-year period as traditional models do.
- Focuses on the children's strengths, interests and successes.
- Takes a holistic approach, not separating skills out as learning objectives or curriculum outcomes.
- Offers a conscious plan for short- and long-term goals.
- Provides a learning history document should the family desire to move toward a more formalized program - public or private - at any time.
- Becomes a living document of change, rather than simply a record of past demonstrations of skill acquisition.
- Becomes an archive for the entire family as a review of all that happened when they worked and played together, giving support to their child's true nature and passions.
