The School Project is a non-profit thematic website focused on public education reform in Chicago, USA. It originated from the 2013 public incident where Chicago Public Schools closed 49 community schools. A documentary team followed and recorded the experiences of affected groups, and eventually built it into an education issue platform that integrates documentaries, an interactive map, and public participation. Its core content includes six 10-minute documentary shorts focusing on different education controversies, covering core public education issues such as school closures, disciplinary policies, standardized testing, and charter school expansion. It also offers an interactive map of Chicago schools, and allows users to share their own education-related stories.
All content on the website is completely free and open to the public. You can access all documentaries and map resources without registering or logging in. Currently, it can be accessed directly from China without any proxy tools. However, the entire site only offers content in English, with no Chinese interface available.
Pros: The platform's content is extremely original and in-depth. As a first-hand record of the event, it has very high reference value for education policy research. It also opens up an entry for public participation, breaking the one-way output model of traditional media, and all free content greatly lowers the access barrier.
Cons are also very obvious: the last content update on the site was in 2015, and no new content has been added for nearly a decade, making it a historical project that has ceased operation. Meanwhile, the interface design still follows the style of more than ten years ago, with poor interaction smoothness, and the lack of Chinese language support is not user-friendly for domestic users.
This website is more suitable for education policy researchers and American social issue researchers to use as first-hand reference materials, and it is also good for documentary enthusiasts who want to watch public issue documentaries. Ordinary users in China do not need to visit it unless they have a specific interest in the history of American education reform.
