Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

You should have a draft or brainstormed ideas from our classroom cipher and other pre-writing activities. After you perform your rap in front of the class on the date written in your agenda, you will submit a typed version of your rap. You will also submit a one-page double-spaced metacognitive paper. A metacognitive paper is a reflection that explains the following: Why you chose the topic you selected to rap about Challenges you faced when writing your rap How your use of poetic devices added to your rap Any other points you would like to add about the writing process If you have any questions regarding your final rap, the presentation, or the metacognitive piece, please email me or ask your questions in class. I look forward to hearing your raps!
