Screencast for Thursday, March 11, 2021
Mr. Duez discussed:
- SAQ Performance - you need to write more thorough answers. Use ACE for every part. Answer, cite specific historical information, and use evidence that proves your assertion. You are not writing long enough answers. Period. This will be a huge part of the AP Test and many are in jeopardy of not getting a passing score on that exam because of this reason alone.
- Test is today over CH 12 - WWI and WWII
- Conduct of the War
- I recorded the first part of this last slide of notes, but technical difficulties prevent the second half from being loaded. So look through the notes (it's mostly pictures and video). Please write me if you have any questions regarding any of it.

2021 Digital AP Exam - Review of Details by Heimler
In this video Heimler walks you through the details of what you need to know for the digital AP exams for 2021. Everything here applies to AP World History, AP U.S. History, and AP European History.
The digital 2021 AP Exams have a lot more requirements and details than the digital (online) exams you took last year (2020), so you need to make sure you keep up to date on the requirements the College Board is putting out. Here I'll take you through some big ideas:
1. General Information about the digital exam, including whether the digital exam is easier than the paper exam.
2. Security measures, including what the College Board is doing about cheating on the 2021 AP Exams.
3. Tech requirements.
4. What you need to do to get prepared.
5. A sample of the questions you'll see in the digital testing application.
Additionally, I'll take you through the process you need to follow if you have submission issues after completing your exam.
