Submitting the Transcript

Once you have completed your transcript, read through it one last time to assure that:
  1. you have included all of the necessary parts,
  2. the transcript adheres to the required structure and syntax, and
  3. the transcript expresses the case as well as it possibly can.
If you make any changes at this point, save your file one last time.

You will be assigned transcripts in groups of 5, 10, 15, etc. by the exercise coordinator.  While you are working on an individual transcript of a particular assignment you can store it as a single file.  However, when you are ready to submit your completed work, please append all of the individual files together as a single MS Word 6.0 file to be shipped to the exercise coordinator.  Name the file using your last name, followed by the extension ".DOC".

Using your email program, create a new message addressed to the exercise coordinator. Include the single file containing all of your individual transcripts as an attachment to that piece of email. If you have any comments or questions about your transcript, the web site, the case, or the transcription process, you may include them in the body of the message.

The last step is sending your message. Once you send the message, you must wait until the exercise coordinator contacts you again by email.  If there are any "bugs" in your transcript (e.g., invalid syntax, missing information), the file will be returned to you for revisions.  Not until your transcript file is bug-free will it be considered complete.  After completing a set of transcriptions, wait until the exercise coordinator provides you with a new set of cases to transcribe.
