14.Course Policies:

a. Attendance
Attendance shall be monitored in accordance with CHED policy and the provisions of the Student
Handbook.

b. Submission of Assessment Tasks

Late submission of learning activities is not allowed

c. Written Examination
There will be four major examinations – Preliminary. Mid-Term, Semi-Final, and Final Examinations –
covering the intended COs. The final examination is the summative assessment of the three COs and will
have to demonstrate understanding of the course. Answer sheet is included in the questionnaire or Test
booklet will be used as answer sheet in all written examinations.

d. Issuance of Mid-Term Grade

The mid-term grade is issued to students so that formal consultation where students are apprised of their
class standing is done to afford them the opportunity to make up and to cope with the rigors of the course.

e. Course Portfolio
Selected assessment tools are to be compiled and collected before the end of the semester. The selection is
based on statistical data gathering (lowest, median, and highest). Learning tasks and examinations with
marks lowest, median and highest must be photocopied and returned to the Instructor/professor for course
portfolio keeping.

f. Language of Instruction
Lectures, discussions and documentation will be in English. Written and spoken work may receive a lower
mark, if the student is deficient in English.

g. Classroom Discipline
Students are not allowed to use electronic gadgets such as cell phones, I-pads and head/ear sets/pads inside
the classroom to avoid disruption of the lesson unless prompted upon as part of classroom activity.
 h. Honor, Dress and Grooming Codes
Students must observe the University Dress and Grooming Code as provided in the Student Decorum of
the Collegiate Student Handbook.

For this course, the Honor Code is that there will be no plagiarizing on written work and no cheating on
examinations. Proper citation must be given to authors whose works were used in the preparation of any
material for this course. If a student is caught cheating on an examination, they will be given zero mark for
the examination. If a student is caught cheating twice, they will be referred to the Prefect of Discipline and
be given a failing grade.

i. Consultation Schedule
Consultation schedules are announced by the Instructor/professor at the beginning of the semester. For this
course, students may consult with the Instructor/Professor at 3:30-5:30pm, Fridays, at the CED Student
Consultation Room. It is recommended that the student set an appointment first to confirm the
Instructor/Professor’s availability.

j. Resit/Re-examination
After the instructor/professor has computed the final grade of the student, and he obtains a failing grade,
the student has one chance for a resit/re-examination on the schedule set by the instructor/professor.
Failure to take the resit/re-examination on the announced schedule forfeits the student’s chance.
