1: Did you like this page as an introduction to Shakespeare? Did it help you to ball out on the Bard basics better?-

“Kill the power, not the Leader.”
1) Some things, like the explanation of inverted speech, really did help.
2) Our lesson did help me figure out how to write concrete details and commentaries better, since we had to write commentaries based on concrete details and had to learn how to cite the concrete details. Citing helped me find better ways to word the concrete details, so that they sound more like facts.
3) I wish that we would have at least been able to read the parallel text versions of Julius Caesar on our own so that I would have been able to learn more about the characters' personalities.
4) I don’t really like using Poetry Genius in general. I think analyzing the characters on paper by ourselves and then sharing with our classmates would have been enough.
5) Writing the essay helped me learn how to write concrete details and commentaries better, but I wished we would have focused a bit more on how to write an introduction and conclusion. The only essays I’ve written this school year were social studies essays where we had very short and to the point introductions, and no conclusions, so I basically forgot how to write a “regular” essay.
6) Looking at classmates' essays helped me figure out how to write a better thesis and conclusion, but I don’t really like doing peer review, especially on a public website.
7) Yes, seeing other theses helped me find better ways to write my own.
8) I think I was harder on my classmates' essays since I feel like I did the best I could do on my own essay, as far as my body paragraphs go.
9) Some comments were helpful, like someone telling me that my concrete detail wasn’t a concrete detail, or to fix the grammar in my introduction paragraph, but some other comments were unhelpful and I think that was because people wanted to fill the 10 comments quota, so they would just write something very quickly while barely looking at what the essay was actually saying.
10) I think Julius Caesar shows that when you let just one aspect of your personality control you, like honor, ambition or power, then you start becoming a very predictable and/or easily manipulated person.
1: Yea it was great but it need something else to add into that. Yea it kind gave me a little boost to write with success.
2: yea the lesson of concrete details and commentaries did help me know the difference between the two because the CD is the main fact and commentary is an opinion. It was effective because you could proof your stamen based on your fact.
3: I would a want to read both things to understand it better and know every character personal thought.
4: Yea Annotating did help to comprehend more because you’re basically analyzing what they said in your own thought and yea poetry genius was a good source to analyses instead of writing it by hand.
5: Yea it did because we learned and practice by writing the Caesar essay and using CD and CM.
6: Yea I noticed their mistakes and then I know what to look out for: poetry was a good source to use because it was easier and faster.
7: Ye sit did because when I noticed their mistakes I went back to my paper and make sure I didn’t do the same.
8: Yea in a way my essay was more detailed them my other classmates. Why because I entered my essay with a complete thought.
9:In a way it did because it made me think about it and change a couple of things.
10:I don’t know I think it would Power.
Bonus:
I think it was Brutus because he then took over Caesars and governed himself and help the people. Brutus had kind of ambition but he was Caesars friend.

- Yes. This was a very helpful page considering it broke down Shakespeare into sections so it was easier to analyze.
- It was effective. Even though i knew the difference it help me learn the definition and how and in what context to use such information.
- This was the part i like the most. This helped me avoid reading a book complete written in backwards language. (i might read it later just for the fun of it.) But this helped to focus on the main areas of the piece.
- It allowed us to see the speech from our point of view and the point of view of our peers which allowed me to understand how everyone else understands the piece.
- The citing, concrete detail and commentaries was a big help for the gateway. it helped me to understand the importance of citing.
- Yes it was. It allowed us to look at the essay from someone else’s pen. Which allowed us to think differently.
- Yes. especially with the thesis statements. It made me re-think on my own.
- I think i was. Even in the end i still had doubt about my own based on what i read of the others.
- Not much. I had no bad comments (Which is a good thing) but it allowed me to know just where i was excelling.
- It is a dangerous category.
Bonus: To be honest it solely depend on your own characteristics. I think both Brutus and Mark Antony were important characters, because of how contradicting they were. Brutus thought he was right, but mark said he was wrong. It is solely up to you to decide but i believe that Brutus was the hero. He was just protecting his country from something he thought was bad even though he might have taken the wrong path in eliminating the enemy.
1.Yes, it was pretty helpful. It helped me learn how to arrange inverted sentences.
2.Yes, it helped me tell the difference between commentaries, which are somewhat like opinions and concrete details, which are statements that can be proven.
3.I didn’t mind focusing on the four main characters in the play, but I would have liked to read the play instead, just to get a better understanding of the play in general.
4.Yes, I think it was a pretty good idea to annotate the speeches, so we could paraphrase the lines in our words so others might understand a little better.
5.Yes, it helped me a little, such as citation references.
6.I wouldn’t say I learned much, just a lot of opinions.
