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.

This section of the project offers several workshops for in-and-out of classroom contexts. Many of the workshops were authored by organizations and individuals in the MAPP network and build on their real-world experience with engagement and activism. Each of the workshops provides deeper insights into practices associated with participatory politics and allows participants to gain experience and surface skills they need to effectively participate in civic spaces by through 'any media necessary.'
The workshops are either designed by MAPP and our colleagues or curated through our community and academic partners.
