I triumph again!

I got my grade report for week three and was really disappointed with her remarks and the grade given on one of the biggest papers we've had due thus far. Her comments were :
Your ideas and information were excellent, but you did not format you paper was not in APA format. This paper was to be sent as an attachment to the Assignment/Write Only newsgroup. I downloaded it as a regular email message. You did have clear introduction, but your conclusion did not summarize what was in your paper, as you did not cite the source of your information. Citations were not always correctly noted within the paper. The resource paper was to be separate. The research was excellent, but the form needs much work.

So I sent her an email and said :

In regards to my Legal Issue paper:

I am concerned, because I thought I followed APA format. I have the APA Manual sitting here on my desk even. I used the same format I used in my COM class I thought. Maybe I goofed somewhere? Can you please tell me where?

I added an attachment to the Assignment/Write Only newsgroup as well, as I do with all of my assignments I turn in there. (I just looked and see it as an attachment as well as in the body of the post, as I was instructed to do in my COM class).

I'm not sure I understand what you mean by the resource paper being seperate.

Can you help me to understand what I mentioned above? I was quite disappointed to see a 10.5/15 on this paper. Please tell me what I could have done differently to have improved.

Thanks,

Traci

She took the time, went over my paper again (as a seperate attachment because it evidentally lost it's formatting when I put it where we were supposed to) and showed her that it had indeed been attached in the forum where we were to turn this paper in. She regraded my paper and her comments and my grade changed!

Legal Issue Paper 14/15
Comment: Once I was able to print the paper in its orginal form, I was albe to see the APA format. Papers within this format should have a title page and an abstract. There were also some minor usage errors. Again your ideas were excellent and the research was great. Thank you for resubmitting this paper.

So again.. because I called the teacher on something, she changed my grade. With that 10.5/15 it had dropped my week three grade to an 83% dropping my cumulative grade to an 86%. Now, with the adjusted grade, I have a 91% for week three, giving me a 93% cumulative... THAT'S better!!!!!
