Description: "... a film about Central Park East Secondary School (CPESS), a successful alternative high school in New York's Spanish Harlem, 85-95% of whose graduates go on to four year colleges. The film illustrates the school's emphasis on the 'Habits of Mind' program (weighing evidence; awareness of multiple points of view; seeing connections and relationships; speculating on possibilities; and assessing values.)

Impeccable taste you have. I was searching for Public Housing (dvd quality) which it seems you used to have.. do you still have the links around for it?
ReplyDeletethanks.
i had links up for public housing before, but it wasn't sourced from a dvd. it was a tvrip, and not a terribly good one at that. (pulled from an arte channel broadcast and has hard-coded french subtitles, as well as a bit of french narration at the beginning.) if you're still interested, it's here:

i've no doubt there are pristine-looking dvdrips out there, though. in fact, i know of better-looking tvrips - in particular, one sourced from a rai_tre broadcast. maybe you want to hold out for one of those. who knows.
