Here's one more response that I just received for my Shmoop request. It's
helpful, so I'm sending it after the hit:

 

I had never heard of it, but went there because of your post.  Sent the link
to my English and social studies departments, and got two responses from
teachers -- one enthusiastic and the other cautiously optimistic.   In
contrast to the other response you had, I thought that the informal tone
made the material more accessible and appealing.  I was less than thrilled
with their citations of source material -- another unauthored URL doesn't 

strike me as an authoritative source.   The writing coach and the stickies
and quotes by theme were helpful, if not entirely terrific.  I think
students will like it.  As one teacher said -- this seems more aimed at
coaching than at cheating.  We shall see.
