Class Policies:
General:
1. The University rules and regulations will be observed.
2. The students’ listed in the master list from the MIS office shall be
permitted to attend the class.
3. Sit in students may attend the class upon the approval of the subject
teacher
4. Cheating and plagiarism is equivalent to a grade of 5.0. Students
caught committing acts of cheating in any form will automatically get a
grade of zero for that exam and will be subjected to further disciplinary
measures (University Rule, refer to Student’s Handbook).
5. The instructor does not practice automatic dropping. Only students who
present a duly accomplished dropping slip using the prescribed
procedures will be dropped.
6. Valid corrections of results are entertained ONLY within one week after
corrected/checked papers are released.

Page 10 of 13
 7. There will be grade consultation a week before the final grades will be
posted.
8. Final grade will not be rounded off.
9. Any additional policy or announcement will be done by the instructor, as
necessary.

For Synchronous (SL) and Asynchronous Online Learning (AOL):

1. Attendance every meeting will be collect with the given google form.
Students must attend at least 80% of the whole period to be considered
present.
2. Students are required to use their full name during the meeting.
3. Students are required to wear the proper clothing during the meeting.
4. Students are required to turn on their camera every time the instructor
asks to. Students who will not turn on their cameras are considered
absent.
5. Microphone are expected to be in mute unless the instructor asks the
student to participate in the class discussion or recitation.
6. For any questions or clarifications, collection of concerns must put at
the Google Meet chat box and it will be answer at the end of the
discussions.
7. Exercises will be given every before and after the class discussion or
when the instructor decides to give it as an assignment. Submission
requirement upon sending the accomplished exercise will send to the
google classroom. The given exercise will answer in a short bond paper,
handwritten including the necessary information such as name, section,
date and exercise number. It will be scanned and send in pdf format with
the file format details Year and Section_Exercise
Number_Surname_Nickname. Ex. 1A_Exercise1_DelaCruz_John.
8. All communications beyond the class schedule are through Facebook
Messenger private message anytime, but please also consider the
instructor’s private time. Indicate in the message if the instructor’s
response is urgent, otherwise, response can be done at least a day after
the receipt of the message.
