FLEXIBLE LEARNING CONTRACT

In response to the latest situation of the COVID-19 infection in the country and
cancellation of in-person classes, the College of Information and Technology Education
will be utilizing an alternative method to centralize and simplify the administration and
management of teaching and learning through e-Learning. This system covers the entire
process of distance learning to help instructors and students to plan their learning
processes, and work together, through the exchange of knowledge and information.

The intent of this contract is to outline the standards and behaviours that are
expected of the participating students.

Student Expectations
1. Adhere to the code of conduct of the university and behave with integrity and
honesty while participating in the online class.

2. Inform my parents or guardians about this online learning methodology and

that it is home-based.

3. Participate in each activity per day per classroom subject and clinical
duty/skills laboratory to maintain pace.

4. Complete the uploaded activities on time. The following rubric will be used to
grade the outputs:
Criteria Percentage

for the topic with correct grammar, tone, spelling and punctuation)
TIMELINESS

Total 100%

5. Communicate with my instructor in a professional and respectful manner.

 6. Ensure that I have the means to access the online activities on my own at all
times. If in case of failure to access the provided activities, I must inform my
instructor.

7. Seek help from the online instructor or course provider as needed.

8. Abide by the given “ofce hours” and time limits by my instructor.

9. Exhibit Netiquette, a social code that defnes “good” online behaviour which is
something I keep in mind during my online course interactions.
The following points apply to all types of online communication:
 Treat my instructor and classmates with respect.
 Make my messages concise.
 I will be professional and courteous.
 I will remember that all college level communication should have correct
spelling and grammar.
 I will not use all capitals in my subject line or in my message unless I want to
emphasize something. It is considered the equivalent of SHOUTING. If I want
to make a point, I will try using *asterisks* or _underscore_ around the word or
phrase I want to stress.
 Ask the original author's permission before forwarding his or her message to
someone else.
 Credit the ideas of others through proper citing and linking to scholarly
resources.
 Be careful with humor and sarcasm. Without the beneft of body language or
vocal infection, my words can be easily misinterpreted.
 Use acronyms sparingly (for example: IMHO = in my humble opinion, BTW =
by the way), as some readers may not know what they mean.
 Never give anyone else my login identifcation or password.
 Remember that new users may make mistakes. I will be patient.
 Ask my instructor/classmate’s permission when I want to record or to take a
screenshot our online activities.

10. Bear in mind the provisions of the Republic Act No. 10173 or Data Privacy Act
of 2012 (https://www.privacy.gov.ph/wp-content/uploads/DPA-of-2012.pdf) and
Republic Act No. 10175 or Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012
(https://www.doj.gov.ph/fles/cybercrime_ofce/RA_10175-
Cybercrime_Prevention_Act_of_2012.pdf)

Students fully acknowledge that success is largely dependent upon the work and efort they
put forth. Students who are not successful may fall of pace to pass the subject or clinical
duty/skills laboratory and may have to pursue means to make up credits.
