My Ancient History teacher was surprised that there was a Bored of Studies site and found it very amusing. When I told him about it, he thought I was talking about the Board of Studies and wondered how I was going to get information for my assignment there.

My teacher for Business Studies gets all her resources from this site. lol, she gets notes, case studies, she sometimes even gets us advice!

It's pretty amusing.

I love the site and advise my students to come here for help and resources.

Most of the teachers at my school know about the site and regularly check it out but I think I am the only one that actually posts here.

Yeah....even the teachers who I didn't think to be that -tech savvy- found that I had uploaded one of my essays onto the Resources page. Got a bit of a shock when she told me after class that she had seen it.

our teachers know it exists some say "its a good resource" others say, "don't go anywhere near it, it will taint your education"

students say the same things aswell.

a few of our teachers post and check resouirces for plagarism.

i get pm's from some lols creepy & funny. But i guess its cause i have a very uncommon name in Oz oh well.

But they just look at me in a funny way, when I tell them I actually post.
loll, yeah i know lots of people that just leech resources and dont post or very rarely.
i know most students know about this site or lots of them do, i dont think many teachers know about it or they dont mention it.

Our teachers encourage us to use the site, they think it's really good.
I think they even use it sometimes.

Some of our teachers are always quick to say 'The OFFICIAL Board of Studies website, not that B-O-R-E-D rubbish'. Must have had a few problems with kids using it in the past or something, I don't know. Opinions teachers have about it at my school differ vastly.

My teachers recommend it to us (most of them anyway)
They just tell us to be extremely wary when looking at some of the forum posts, since it's student work..
Whereas we're meant to learn from our peers ==;;

general consensus is approval, its a great resource and community for people.

they just gave us a wikipedia warning (non-academic source), seeing as like some resources are just from other kids, obviously you can't wholy trust everything about them.

but an incredibly majority of the resources are top notch, and the forums are great.

Yeah, my teachers seem to love this place too.

And we got that wikipedia warning too. My physics teacher won't accept anything from that site :p
