Chapter exams 20%
Midterm/Final Exam 35%
Laboratory reports 20%
Attendance, Assignments and Submission Policies.
Students are required to observe attendance in the class as monitored in the School Registered Form. Assignments and their submission are to
be on time as announced and scheduled in the class sessions.
Uniform and Decorum.
Students are deemed accountable to follow the “Damn Psychology of Clothing” and the “Respect the 6 C’s” as campaigned in the class through
posters.
Academic Dishonesty.
All forms of dishonesty as indicated as ideal class rules in the basic and higher education is automatically equivalent to a failing grade of the
academic exercise. Plagiarism if automatic “Failed” in an output.
Disability Accommodation.
Persons with physical/learning disabilities are requested to see the professor within the first two weeks of the semester. A doable strategy is
designed by both the professor and the student throughout the semester. Have an appointment with the professor for his/her consultation time.
