My instructor sent to me: Yes you did a great job on your Assessment! I’ve copied the information below from the APA Style and Grammar website (essentially your APA manual online):
Because the first paragraphs of a paper are understood to be introductory, the heading Introduction is not needed. Do not begin a paper with an Introduction heading; the paper title at the top of the first page of text acts as a de facto Level 1 heading.
