TL;DR: Use the Discover tab to find local activities that match your family's values. SparkAI automatically refreshes this list based on your trip length, the current season, and your children's interests.
The Discover feed is your personal guide to worldschooling. Instead of spending hours searching the web, LearnSpark does the heavy lifting for you. By looking at where you are and what your family cares about, SparkAI suggests activities that your children will actually love.
How the Discover Feed Works
The Discover tab is an intelligent feed that evolves as you travel. Because LearnSpark already knows about your family values and your children's interests, it doesn't just show you "top-rated" tourist spots. It shows you the right spots for your family.
To get started, assign your Current Location and your Next Destination on the Adventures page. SparkAI uses this context to pull the most relevant local ideas.
The feed stays fresh with these features:
Personalized Ranking: Activities ideal for your specific family appear at the very top.
Intelligent Refreshing: The list updates on a special schedule. If you are staying somewhere for a long time, SparkAI will refresh the list more often to give you new options as the seasons change.
Family Values: The feed looks at your family profile to ensure activities align with how you choose to teach and live.
💡 Good to know: This feature replaces the need to search on Google or ChatGPT. It uses the data you've already added to your student profiles to save you time.
Shortlisting and Automatic Planning
When you see something you like, you can Shortlist the activity. This saves it for later so you don't lose the idea. Once you are ready to go, you can add it to your Schedule.
Once an activity is scheduled, SparkAI handles the logistics:
What to Pack: SparkAI generates a list of items you'll need for that specific outing.
Weather Insights: It checks the likely weather for your trip date so you're never caught in the rain.
Learning Tailoring: If you select the Learning Activity option, SparkAI will suggest specific things to do or talk about to turn the fun into a lesson.
Building Your Mastery Profile
Education doesn't just happen at a desk. When you finish an adventure, you can use the Log Activity function on your dashboard. This links your real-world trip back to your child's Mastery Profile.
This proves that your child is gaining skills even while exploring a museum, a hiking trail, or a new city. Every adventure helps complete the picture of your child's educational journey!
⚠️ Heads up: Using SparkAI to refresh your feed, search for activities, or generate planning details uses SparkAI Credits. Each update helps keep your student's mastery profile accurate.
