Policy Sections
What this Classroom Use Policy covers
Allowed Educational Use
Classroom uses that are generally allowed
The site is built to be useful in real AP English classrooms, tutoring sessions, review periods, and student study routines.
Use as class reference
Teachers may open a public page during class discussion and use it as a reference for AP Lang, AP Lit, essay strategy, or exam review.
Assign for review
Students may be directed to read a page before practice, after a mock exam, or during review as long as academic integrity expectations are clear.
| Allowed Use | Example | Best Practice |
|---|---|---|
| Linking in Canvas or Google Classroom | Posting a link to a thesis-pattern guide in an assignment module. | Use the original URL and identify the source as AP English Exam Prep. |
| Class discussion | Projecting a public page while explaining line of reasoning. | Use the page as a reference while students create their own work. |
| Student review | Assigning a practice-question page after a multiple-choice review session. | Clarify whether students may use the page during or only after practice. |
| Tutoring reference | A tutor sends a student a link to an AP Lang rhetorical analysis resource. | Link to the original page instead of copying the content into a paid packet. |
| Professional sharing | Sharing a link with another AP English teacher. | Share the URL and avoid copying substantial content into private files. |
Uses That Need Permission
Uses that are not allowed without written permission
AP English Exam Prep supports classroom use, but site content may not be copied, republished, sold, or repackaged in a way that replaces the original site.
Do not copy full pages

LMS and Classroom Platforms
Canvas, Google Classroom, Schoology, and LMS use
Teachers may use AP English Exam Prep links inside classroom platforms, but the difference between linking and copying matters.
| LMS Action | Policy Status | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Posting a link to a public AP English Exam Prep page | Allowed | Students access the original page with context, branding, updates, and related resources intact. |
| Embedding a short quoted excerpt with attribution | Usually acceptable for limited classroom discussion | Small excerpts can support instruction when the source is credited and the original page is linked. |
| Pasting an entire page into Canvas as a module page | Not allowed without permission | This copies and republishes the site content outside the original page. |
| Uploading a PDF made from a full AP English Exam Prep page | Not allowed without permission | This creates a redistributed copy that can become outdated and disconnected from the source. |
| Using a link as part of a teacher-created assignment | Allowed | The teacher creates the assignment while AP English Exam Prep remains the linked reference. |
Best LMS practice
Use the page title, a short teacher-written instruction, and the direct AP English Exam Prep URL. This gives students a clean path to the original resource and keeps attribution clear.
Short Excerpts and Attribution
How to use short excerpts responsibly
Short excerpts may be useful for classroom discussion, but they should be limited, attributed, and linked back to the original source.
Recommended attribution
Source: AP English Exam Prep, https://www.apenglishexamprep.com/
If you quote a short passage from the site for a lesson, slide, classroom prompt, or discussion question, include the site name and the original page URL when practical.
Short excerpts should not replace the original page, and they should not be combined into large copied packets, answer keys, or redistributable course files.
Keep It Short
Use only the amount needed for discussion or reference.
Credit Source
Name AP English Exam Prep and link the original page.
Add Teacher Work
Build your own questions, prompts, or activity around the excerpt.

Student Academic Integrity
Classroom use should protect student originality

Teachers should define allowed support
Assignments should clarify whether students may use outside resources before writing, during drafting, during revision, or only after submission.
Resources should build skill
Site pages should be used to improve understanding, not to bypass assigned reading, writing, annotation, or analysis.
