[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would meet with head of school.  There is no way that you, as a tuition paying parent, should have to tolerate the teacher intentionally being difficult.  I would meet with the teacher, head of school and your child to go over the instructions and then point out each instance when your child compolied and then I would challenge the grade.

I believe you that it's the teacher because if your son was doing it incorrectly, as the parent, naturally, you would done whatever is necessary to make sure he was completing it on time and submitting it correctly.

Do you think the teacher just doesn't like him?[/quote]

Something about this story doesn’t add up. My students regularly submit assignments via Google docs. When students share docs properly, I can see the version history, when docs were viewed or changed, who changed them, etc. Sometimes students don’t share docs the way I’ve outlined in the syllabus. When that occurs, I don’t have access to that version history and I can’t verify it’s the student’s own work because it can easily be a copy.

When this happens, I require the student send me the original doc before I’ll grade the work. I’m wondering if that’s what occurred here. This fully explains the OP’s story (why the teacher viewed it but didn’t grade it, why the school says it wasn’t shared properly, etc). And if that’s the case, then no… the student didn’t follow instructions.[/quote]
