13.1. Other Course Policies

a. Attendance
According to CHED policy, total number of absences by the students should not be more than 20% of the
total number of meetings or 6 h for a two-unit-course. Students incurring more than 6 hours of unexcused
absences automatically gets a failing grade regardless of class standing.

b. Submission of Assessment Tasks

Homework and other assigned coursework are due at the beginning of the class period of the specified due
date. Late submissions will be accepted with deductions. There will be a 10% deduction on the final score
for every meeting of late submission up to a maximum of 50% deduction. All assessment tasks for
consideration in the final grade computation should be submitted by the end of 11th week.

c. Written Examination
There will be 2 written examinations covering the four intended COs. The final examination will be the
summative assessment of the four COs and will cover all topics of the course. If you fail to take any or all the
examination even with a valid reason, you will be given a grade equivalent to your final examination on all or
any of the missed examination. Failure to take the final examination will result in a failing grade.

d. Course Portfolio
All problem sets and examinations are to be compiled and collected at the end of the term. Learning tasks
and examinations must be photocopied and must be given back to the instructor for course portfolio keeping.
Portfolio should be submitted before the end of the 11th week of the quarter.

e. Language of Instruction
Lectures, discussion, and documentation will be in English. Written and spoken work may receive a lower
mark if it is, in the opinion of the instructor, deficient in English.

f. Honor, Dress and Grooming Codes

All of us have been instructed on the Dress and Grooming Codes of the Institute. We have all committed to
obey and sustain these codes. It will be expected in this class that each of us will honor the commitments
that we have made.
For this course the Honor Code is that there will be no plagiarizing on written work and no cheating on exams.
Proper citation must be given to authors whose works were used in the process of developing instructional
materials and learning in this course. If a student is caught cheating on an exam, he or she will be given zero
mark for the exam. If a student is caught cheating twice, the student will be referred to the Prefect of Student
Affairs and be given a failing grade.

g. Consultation Schedule
Consultation schedules with the Professor are posted outside the Faculty room and in the School’s web-page
(http://che-chm.mapua.edu.ph). It is recommended that the student first set an appointment to confirm the
instructor’s availability.

h. Appeal system. All appeals on student assessment must be made by the concerned student within one week
after the return of the assessed student work. In case the student is not satisfied, no later than one week
after the decision of the faculty has been made, he/she can elevate the appeal to the program chair, or dean
in case there is no program chair. The decision of the program chair or dean is final. The faculty must abide
with the moderated decision of the program chair or dean. No appeal will be entertained under 24 h before
the submission of grades to the Registrar’s Office.
