1. Use a descriptive subject line.
2. Be brief.
3. Make sure that when sending attachments, the recipient can
open it.
4. Sign the message with your name, course, year level, and
college/department.
5. Be careful and cautious when sending e-mail to more than one

1. Students are expected to focus on the specific topic posted on
the discussion stream. The introduction or posting of

discussion. Such controlling behaviors includes, but are not
limited to, attempt to dominate a discussion by posting threads
excessively, intentionally changing the discussion topic, and an
inappropriate or argumentative attitude.
On Grading of Assignments
1. Grades on assignments shall be posted in the Gradebook
within 72 hours after the due date of the assignment.
2. Students shall refer to the Gradebook in the online classroom
to determine the grade earned on each assignment submitted.
3. Students are not allowed to send email or call the faculty
asking for their grade on assignments.
4. If in case the student needs to discuss the grade or feedback
received from the faculty on an assignment, the student will
make an appointment with the faculty. This may be done via
12 | Page
email, telephone call, teleconference, or a visit during the
consultation hours of the faculty.
On Attendance
1. Attendance of students shall be determined by the frequency
of attending synchronous online or face-to-face sessions,
participation in stream discussions, collaboration with group,
and submission of outputs.
2. The faculty shall post the attendance in the Gradebook of the
online classroom to promote participation of students in
e-learning activities of the course.
3. If in case the record shows that the student has less
participation and engagement in the teaching-learning
activities of the course, the faculty will call immediately the
attention of the student by sending e-mail or phone call for
remediate action.
4. If in case poor attendance of students is caused by personal
issues, problems to access learning resources, or technical
difficulties, the faculty will refer the student to the appropriate
offices of the University. (insert link)

course
On Cheating
Cheating is an act of student to bypass the learning process in order to
obtain grades without doing the actual intellectual work that merits the
grades. It is a fraudulent act that may misrepresent the actual
performance, competency, or outputs of the student.
1. Licean students are expected to possess the virtues of honesty
and integrity. As such, Liceans are expected NOT to cheat in
any examination.
2. Cheating (copying another person’s answer, exchanging
information) during examination shall not be tolerated and

place is strictly prohibited.
4. Copying (screen shots, taking photos, and flash drive), printing,
and distributing copies of online examinations is strictly
prohibited.
5. Students are not allowed to have group test taking (gathering
of students in one area or in a student’s domicile) during
online examination.
6. Copying and submitting another student’s assignment is
strictly prohibited.
7. If a student is caught cheating or proven to have cheated
during an examination, the result of the examination will not
be recorded and such student will get a score of zero. The
student will then be sent to the Dean’s Office or Student Affairs
Office for the appropriate disciplinary actions. (insert link for

On Plagiarism
Plagiarism is an act wherein the student presents/submits outputs
which are done by someone else/another person. It is a very grave
offense against academic integrity since it is an attempt to steal another
person’s work (words or ideas) to gain unfair advantage such as
attaining good grade.
1. Students shall be made aware that plagiarism is flagrantly an
act dishonesty. With diligent due process, any student
engaging in it will result in dismissal from the
course/university.
2. The University considers the following as acts of plagiarism
when a student:
● Directly copies word-for-word the quotation,
paragraphs, and/or whole pages from any sources and
submit/presents it as his/her output.
● Directly copies the style as well as the structure of
another person’s work or fails to rephrase the
meaning of such material in his/her own words;
● Submit someone’s paper or portions of a paper as
his/her own work product;
● Download a paper (journal, research) from the
internet and submit all or part of that paper as his/her
own original work;
● Fail to cite or inappropriately cite words, information,
or ideas from any source as if the output submitted
represents his/her own original work.
● If a student is caught/proven plagiarizing his/her
outputs, such outputs will not be recorded and will get
a score of zero. The student will then be sent to the
Dean’s Office or Student Affairs Office for the
appropriate disciplinary action.
RULES ON EXAMINATION : 1. A PT student is expected to possess such virtue as honesty and integrity,
and such is not expected to cheat in any examination.

2. If a student is caught cheating during examination, his or her test paper will
automatically be confiscated or not graded, and such a student will get a
score of zero.
4. The student must have to pass every modular examination. If the score is
below 75% of the total number items of the examination, the student
cannot proceed to the next module.
6. Permits are required for every periodic examination. Permit can be secured
by the student from the finance office. Any erasures or alterations on the

11. If a student has missed a scheduled term exam, it becomes his or her
responsibility to remind the facilitator as regards his or her special exam.
RULES ON EXERCISE : 1. Exercise and group outputs are referring to the lesson activities that are
AND GROUP OUTPUTS embedded in every module.
RULES ON : 1. It is the prerogative of the students to find common time with the facilitator
CONSULTATION WITH for consultation.
