ALL ACCESS
Every Learning Journey story and every ounce of curriculum that we've got now. And everything that's on the way!
Stories from more than a dozen countries and parts of our world, each following the Learning Journey format of one main video paired with 2-4 written narratives and 2-4 lesson plans (and an increasing amount of bonus footage and photos, too!) that integrate math, literacy, and more.
If academic alignment (including math alignment) and integration with SEL + global learning is a big goal and focus for you, then this is the plan for you.

ALL ACCESS FEATURES YOU MAY LOVE:
Greatest Content Diversity
Choose your own learning journey. You'll have the maximum diversity possible with this range of Learning Journey stories -- across math grade levels, academic topics, global topics, SEL topics, regions of the world, and more. This plan has all the videos, stories, and lesson plans that we've created so far (and everything that's to come, too). This includes bonus footage from stories (the future is bright).
Growing Content Library
We're always creating. Every Learning Journey in our launch pipeline and everything we create in the future will be automatically added to your plan as we grow. All new bonus footage and all new features we add will also become active for you right away. The Starter and Standard plans have a set number of Learning Journeys available and limited features, regardless of how much content we are adding into the overall library.
Best Search Experience
Browse by topic, filter by topic, search with our dynamic search bar, or look through all the stories in a huge magical list. It's all up to you! In the Starter and Standard plans, you'll still be able to browse stories specific to your plan, though the search and filtering features work best for the All Access plan.
Premium Support
This plan has the best support from our team if and when you need it. We hope you won't need us much, though we're always around if you need anything at all -- or if you just want to share amazing stories from your learning experiences!
Teachers report this is the most ideal plan to get -- especially if you're a parent, teacher, school, or district eager to integrate SEL into academics, to make SEL a priority in a deeper way, and/or care deeply about global learning. That's why we've priced this plan in a way that it becomes the cheapest option when purchasing in volume.
And remember:
All funds that you contribute for your plan will be used by Better World Ed -- a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization -- to further this mission, to keep creating new Learning Journeys (for and with you!), and to keep learning from and supporting educators around the globe.
Think of us as your Global SEL research and development team, partnering with you to make all of this curriculum content while you make magic happen in the classroom. Teamwork makes the dream work, right?
STANDARD
The Standard membership has an assortment of just over 50 written stories and lesson plans from our entire library, linking to a selection of the wordless videos.
Each video links to 2-4 stories and lesson plans -- in this plan, the stories and lesson plans link to 19 different wordless videos about unique humans.
The stories have been carefully "hand picked" by our team to ensure that they're a good sampling of our overall diversity of stories across all categories (SEL topics, global topics, academic topics, math grade levels, etc).
In this kit, you'll still be able to align to many core academic topics -- you just might not see the total coverage that you will from the All Access membership.
If you're teaching a specific math grade, for example, you might not have the diversity of math topics that covers the whole school year, though you would have a sampling to hopefully get you excited about heading on up to the All Access plan!
STARTER
The Starter membership has an assortment of 20 stories and lesson plans from our library, linking to a selection of the videos (each video links to 2-4 stories and lesson plans).
This plan may be a great fit for you if you're thinking about trying out a few stories to see how students respond, before upgrading to one of the larger plans.
Each video links to 2-4 stories and lesson plans -- in this plan, the stories and lesson plans link to 8 different wordless videos about unique humans with an occasional bonus trial here and there.
Similar to the Standard plan, we've selected each story and lesson in this plan carefully to show the diversity of our overall library.
Though as it is impossible to cover the human experience and all key topics even with hundreds of stories, this kit of Starter stories is really exactly what the name suggests: a start. A sampling. A sampling spanning across various SEL topics, math grade levels, and global topics.
