Will Atkins-26-Class Review

Umm. Congress early on in the year. Helpful. Late in the year on the computers, ehh. Considering were all high school students, I feel like about 1 in 15 students went back and looked at the revisions people made upon. Unfortunately, while it is the students fault, talking to many of the students who enjoyed hearing corrections to their essays, those same students failed to go to turnitin.com and look at their revised essays. This is one part of the class that should be reviewed in some way. I would space out the teaching of the 3 types of essays on the AP English exam more. We did one type of essay, analysis, for all but a month and a half of the year. I understand the other two types of essays, synthesis and argument, are not the most difficult of tasks to accomplish, but you never know, they might be hard for some students.  
Besides those two minuscule things. Nah, this was a cool but still educational class with an appropriate amount of freedoms. Ehh scratch that. Less use of phones, and I say that as someone who uses their phone often. It’s bad for education man.
