III. Course Study Guide

The key to successfully finish this module lies in your hands. This module was
prepared for you to learn diligently, intelligently, independently and working with
honesty. As a Louisian, doing these will greatly help and prepare you to become
a socially involved citizen. There are activities that would really test your honesty
and being responsible learner. It is more on performance task and the quality of
the outputs that you need to accomplish. The following guides and house rules
will help you further to be on track and to say at the end of the module, “my
mission never ends as I continue to become an ambassador of goodwill or
Shalliack.” This is the essence of the Community Service Involvement (CSI) as we
continue to show our “pannakibadang” or solidarity in our very own community
which will definitely starts at HOME.
1. Manage your time well. Create your own study routine. Schedule
properly your reading assignments and your activity accomplishments.
Study how you can manage to do the activities of this module in
consideration of your other modules from other courses. Learn also to
manage your time to read and understand every part of the module.
You are free to browse and read the different units of the module even
prior to doing the tasks in each unit. However, you need to ensure that
you will not miss any part of the module and you will not miss to
accomplish every activity as scheduled.
2. Focus your attention. Make sure that you do things one at a time. Read
the material over and over until you are able to get the point of the
lesson. If you did not understand the readings and other tasks, re- read
or you can read other materials found in other resources like the
internet or books. If this will not work, engage all possible resources. You
may text your Supervising Instructor or ask your other family members
to help you. Do not hesitate to ask your Supervising Instructor. As a
facilitator, I am here to guide and process our (you, subject/course, SI)
learning experience through a meaningful encounter of engaging,
explaining, exploring, elaborating, and evaluating.
3. Give your best. In doing the assessment tasks whether formative or
Property of and for the exclusive use of SLU. Reproduction, storing in a retrieval system, distributing, uploading or posting online, or transmitting in any form or by any2
Page 3 of 11
summative, target the highest standards because you are a better

student. You have the knowledge and skills that you need to finish with
quality your work. Do not settle with the low standards; target the
highest standards in doing your assigned tasks. I know you can!
4. Submit on time. Before the end of every term or month, you will be
submitting the accomplished activities in the modules. Once I receive
your materials, I will inform you immediately. Always communicate with
your Supervising Instructor for possible adjustment of submission of your
activities and your respective journal. Make sure you will follow it up
with me through text or any other media available to you.
5. Be patient. I will make sure to give you my feedback on your work to
ensure that you are on the right track. While waiting for my feedback,
you can continue working on the other activities or read other
materials related to the next topics. Make sure that you do not miss any
important part in the module.
6. Answer confidently. In answering the assessment and evaluation
activities you are expected to do the following:
a. Write neatly and legibly only on the module (or encode/type) if you
are sure of your answers. Think before you write/type.
b. Make sure to give your answers completely and concisely. If
questions need to be answered in essay form, stick to the point.
Follow the specific number of words given in the instruction. Also,
give proofs of your claim or point-of-view. Cite correctly the
references you use in your work and do not plagiarize your answers.
7. Work independently and be honest. It is expected that you work on the
module on your own. Your family members and friends at home will
support and help you but the activities and the actual performance
must be done by you. Cheating of any means is not allowed in
answering or performing the activities in the module. As Louisan, we
always need to demonstrate our core values of competence,
creativity, social involvement, and Christian spirit.
8. Motivate yourself. One of the best ways to get motivated is to be very
clear about what you want and why you are studying in the first place.
Remember that whatever knowledge or skill you are gaining from this
course will definitely help you in your career and your everyday
encounter with the community. Enjoy what you are doing and
everything else will follow.
9. Contact me. If any part of the module or lesson, you need help and
guidance, do not hesitate to contact me/or your supervising instructor
through email, messenger, or SMS. Remember, if there is a will, there is
a way.
10. Lastly, check your manners. It is good to go back to your good
manners and right conduct. Remember that this is not only about your
academics but most important are the values you learn from the
Page 4 of 11
activities in the module. You are living in a moral and ethical way in
whatever you do. Read and understand the MOPG for additional
reminders about this.

1. Schedule and manage your time to read and understand every part of the
module.
Read it over and over until you understand the point. Please note that due to the
problems on erratic internet connections and to be able to cooperate with the
government in observing the ECQ protocols, this online course will be delivered
asynchronously.
2. Study how you can manage to do the activities of this course in consideration of
your other modules from other courses. Be very conscious with the study schedule. Post it
on a conspicuous place so that you can always see. Do not ask your course facilitator
about questions that are already answered in the guide.
3. Log in to the course site at least thrice a week (if you can log in daily, do so) and
as
scheduled to keep abreast of important announcements, discussions, and other class
activities. Check the STREAM page every time you log in for possible announcements.
4. Do not procrastinate. Remember, it is not others who will be short-changed if you
will not do your work on time.
5. Before you start doing your tasks, read and understand the assessment tools
provided. Do not settle with the low standards, target the highest standards in doing your
assigned tasks. I know you can.
6. You are free to browse and read the different materials even prior to doing the
tasks
in each unit of the module. However, you need to ensure that you will not miss any part
of the module and you will not miss to accomplish every activity in every unit as
scheduled.
7. All course discussions will be conducted using Google Meet and Google
Hangouts.
If you will be using mobile app of Google Meet and Google Hangouts, stay logged in so
you can engage in the discussion anytime and anywhere. If you are using the desktop
app, regularly log in to stay in the discussion.
8. All the discussions are academic discussions, which mean that the relevant
academic conventions apply.
a. Your post should be composed of complete and grammatically correct
sentences. Do not
use abbreviations and acronyms unless these are introduced in the readings, and do not
write in text-speak. Avoid writing in all caps.
b. post appropriate and well-thought rejoinders. Avoid merely approving or
disapproving with your classmates and course facilitators. You need to support your
inputs in the discussions from reliable information and resources. Do not post uninformed
opinions.
c. Read and analyze the contributions made by your classmates in the discussion
forums. Respond appropriately and courteously. Always use proper language.
d. Be polite and respectful arguing a point and in defending your opinions. Do not
be rude and do not make remarks that may be construed as a personal attack. Refer to
ideas/statements, not the person. Remember that the objective of academic discussion
is to develop your critical and analytical thinking skills apart from contributing to the
Page 6 of 11
wealth of knowledge.
e. Do not post lengthy contributions. Stick to the point. Be clear what your main point
is and express it as concisely as possible. Do not let the discussion stray.
f. Quote your sources in the online discussion by mentioning the last name of the
author and the year. No need to use a particular style.
g. Protect your privacy. Ponder before you post. If you wish to share something
private, do it by email or private chat.
9. Do not plagiarize and do not patch write. Patch writing is still a form or plagiarism.
It
refers to the act of making small changes and substitutions to copied source material
(Merriam-Webster, 2020).
10. Follow the schedule of course activities. Always remind yourself of deadlines. Read
in advance. Try to anticipate possible conflicts between your personal schedule and the
course schedule, and make the appropriate adjustments. Try your best to inform through
any means your course facilitator for any unavoidable delays or "absences" or "silences"
of more than a week's duration or other concerns.
11. Note that our Google Classroom is a virtual learning environment, not a social
networking site. Use recent and appropriate ID photo on your profile page for proper
identification.
10. Lastly, you are the learner; hence, you do the module on your own. Your family
Members and friends at home will support you but the activities must be done by you. As
Louisan, we always need to demonstrate our core values of competence, creativity,
social involvement, and Christian spirit.
“Caritas christi urget nos”- the love of Christ urges us on (2 Corinthians

5:14).
This love, seen in small and large gestures of hope and solidarity, is
calling us to a new future and a new way of living. COVID-19 knows no
borders, but neither do faith, hope, nor love. -CPM
