    Hi all,

    I submitted an assignment today, online and in the undergrad box.

    I got home and reslised that I was too hasty and I have missed something importsnt out.

    Is there zny chance at all that I could submitagain or is this a complete no no?

    Cheers

    If you submitted it on Blackboard and it's still before the deadline, you can usually just resubmit it and your new submission will overwrite the old one.

    If that doesn't work, you should email your lecturer right away and explain that you missed something and want to resubmit and once you're before the deadline, I think they would be pretty mean not to allow you to resubmit it.

    Oh brilliant, its not due for another 2 weeks. Lecturer said she wont answer any personal emails, only through the ask a question forum

    Then your best bet is to either use that ask a question forum to ask her, or else simply go and find her in UCD and I would be very surprised if she won't let you resubmit.

    For some courses it's not possible to re-submit an assignment via safe assign unless the lecturer removes the initial submission.

    It's unusual that a lecturer won't answer students' emails, but, as suggested above, either drop her a message via the forum or drop in and see her during her office hours and ask if it's possible to resubmit the assignment.

    I hate that arrogance of some lecturers. I've never had a manager say 'Oh yeah, I don't answer personal mails' The warm glow, security and superiority complex of academia is too much for some people.
