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.

But this web documentary is not about the practices and policies that are transforming dreams for public education; hopes focused on developing as fully as possible the capacities and geniuses of children from pre-school into their adulthoods, not in spite of but with thoughtful, caring attention to their differences and needs. No this not a story about morphing a dream into what Bill Pinar called “a nightmare” of the “present historical moment.” Nine (9) years later, it is a nightmare from which we cannot awake.
