    This website definitely will be a great help for me during the year. Not only dose it include many links for research and quizes but it also gives us an apportunity to have assignments visable in our computer and not have to depend much on our agendas(which could be lost in campus). The best accpect of the website that will help me is deffinitely the powerpoints. I'm not a good note-taker or a good lecture-follower, so this wil be great to study from.

    This website includes a lot of helpful information that will help me study for tests. Also having the power points on here will help me review for the A.P test once we get closer to taking it. The website is also helpful because our homework assignments may be posted on here. So now I don't have to worry about losing the little piece of paper I write the homework on (:

    Taking a look at the website helps me feel comfortable on having an available source outside of the class. It will allow me to check out the lecture of the day as well as daily updates. I like the website and the layout of it, it will be helpful for myself and the rest of the students. As Manuel said one can easily go through it and find what they are looking for :)

    Taking a look at this website and exploring it has shown me that there are a lot of useful tools we can use here. The links are helpful, and if we ever forget what homework we had its so convinient that we can just look here. The fact that the quizzes are on here is just awesome, this can let us go to old quizzes and review. Im really excited about being able to use this throughout the year, as Im sure many other students are :)

    This looks like a great website.it can be really helpful if im ever absent or need an extra help with the subjects. I've never had anything like this from any teacher, so it'll be a great new method for me.

    All I can say is this website is very helpful and I'm glad were doing this during the year, finally a way we can actually talk about what we think on a certain subject without weird looks.Its also really cool that I can look for Homework and stuff because sometimes I forget I have it! I'm looking forward to trying to pass the AP Government Test with the help of this website, thanks for taking your sweet time in creating it Mr. Barclay.

    This is a very helpful website. It has all of the work, tools, and quizzes we are going to be needing. In fact I feel that I dont even have to go to your class because I can learn everything from here, no im just kidding. But really if I'm ever absent this is a great way to know what I missed.

    All the sources that the website has is definitely going to aid me on my goal of passing the AP exam. The daily updates on assignments is going to help me keep on track on my homework and assure that I will complete each assignment. The most helpful resource, in my opinion, seems to be the links to previous AP exams. By having the exams to look at we can prepare by ourselves when May comes around. Im excited to be in your class this year.

    This website is going to be really useful through out the school year. All the daily updates on what happened during class will help us in cause we missed something during class or if we didn't understand the lesson. Also because everything we are going to be doing and the test we'll be taking are already here. So far I like it.

    The sites looking good, its short and to the point. I do hope that you do however remind us if we need to check out the site because if not I'm pretty sure that I'll treat this like my email and check it occasionally at best. I don't want to waste such opportunistic resources that this site delivers. And now people can’t use the excuse that they weren’t in class and therefore weren’t able to do the homework, with this site the slackers will have their work cut out for them.

    This website is very beneficial for myself and my classmates. I find it useful in case I am absent and the website prepares us for our future AP exam. I like the fact that it has powerpoints for studying and we can see if we have upcoming quizzes. Within this website I wouldn't have known that we have a quiz on Monday.

    the website seems very convenient to have available as an extra reference for the class. I’m glad you have provided this source, I’m sure if we all use it wisely, it will help and prepare us to pass the AP test. I like the fact our assignment are being posted on the website, that way we will have some way to know what our assignments are in case we forget or if we are absent.

    A test on Monday? This website has been put together very nicely and has already proven to be helpful. The website includes useful links that will become very handy now and when the time comes to take the AP test. Now missing one day of school will not become a big hassle like it is for other class, not that I miss many days. As Sandra V. said it would be very helpful if you could give us a heads-up when important must see information will be posted on the website. Overall, this is an awesome website.

    This website has everything available to us, it will be very helpful throughout the year. It will be easy to catch up on any missed lectures or hw assignments, a place we can rely on to have what we need. Website is also very organized. Thanks for having this available to us. The heads-up thing as Sandra and Gaby mentioned would be helpful. Thanks again.

    Wow the website has already proven it works! I had no idea we were having a quiz on Monday, and now thanks to this I will make sure to study. I like the fact that our homework will be posted on this. Thats great for the ones who forget to write it down or are absent. I also like the whole powerpoint idea, like Viri said that's gonna help us review for the AP test once it gets closer to the date of the test. Thank you Mr. Barclay for helping us out by creating this website. I feel I can reach you at any time :)

    As i looked around the website, i noticed the great tools, as urepanny also mentioned, offered to all the students taking this class. I find this website to be a great idea, which i am sure is going to help everybody get that extra help they need. I think the most beneficial things will be having the homework assignments getting posted here and also having the quizzes on here.

    Well surely this website has proven to be quite
    efficient for my first time using it. As jackie said, i had no clue there was a quiz this monday but through this website, i was able to find out quickly and study for it. It will make of good use throughout the year to find out what the homework is and look at the quizzes through the use of microsoft word and powerpoint.

    This website makes following up on the class a lot easier, it's good for distracted students as myself. It could also help if one were to miss a day and needed to know what they missed and have to do. I believe more teachers should use an online website to help their students plus then the students wouldnt have an excuse as in to why they didn't do the h.w. since the website says what the assignment was.

  52. Luis C. p.5

    I like the blog idea Mr. Barclay, mixing school with the modern social network, i believe more teachers should try this approach such as Eddie M. wrote in his comment. I also like the fact that you posted up the homework online, it'll come in handy to those students who may miss a day of school due to illness, because they have the opportunity to log on and check the work out, and prepare for the upcoming quiz. Keep it up!

  59. I believe that through this amazing website we will be able to enable many of our thoughts, beliefs, concerns and much more. Unfortunelly we have such limited time during class and this makes it hard for us to gather much of the information we should be getting and through this website we will be able to do so. Something that will be much help not only to me but to my classmates as well will definitely be the notes and the quizzes that are given to us in advance. Through this we will be able to study and be prepared for the quiz the day given to us. If we are absent we won’t be so far behind because all the information will be given to us through this website. I really like this whole idea of blogging it’s just such a great way to express our beliefs and actually be able to see what others think. I am really looking forward to taking this class i know that i will learn a lot and be more stable in to what my political beliefs are.

  60. The website looks really helpful. I like the idea that you let us know quizzes in advance and also provide extra help in this website.It looks pretty interesting and it helps us students interact with the instructor outside of class. I hope this school year runs smoothly and I am really looking forward to learning new things in your class. pd.2
