13.1 Other Course Policies

a. Attendance

According to CHED policy, total number of absences by the students should not be more than 20% of the total number of

meetings or nine for a three-unit-course (6 meetings). Students incurring more than 9 hours of unexcused absences automatically gets a failing grade regardless of class standing.

b. Submission of Assessment Tasks (Student Outputs) should be on time; late submittal of coursework’s will not be accepted.

If you have a justifying circumstance, it must be discussed and a decision made before the due date or it is due when the assignment is due. Copied works/tasks or any required material to be submitted in the class are strictly prohibited and found

guilty will be considered as cheating as well.

c. Major Examination (Long Quiz for both written and on-line and Final Exam) will be administered as scheduled. No special

exam will be given unless with a valid reason subject for approval of the Chairman of the Math and Science Department. Furthermore, students of this course are required to participate actively in the events/activities organized for this course.

Lectures, discussion, and documentation will be in English. Written and spoken work may receive a lower mark if it is, in the

opinion of the instructor, deficient in English.

f. Honor, Dress and Grooming Codes

All of us have been instructed on the Dress and Grooming Codes of the Institute. We have all committed to obey and sustain

these codes. It will be expected in this class that each of us will honor the commitments that we have made.

For this course the Honor Code is that there will be no plagiarizing on written work and no cheating on exams. Proper citation

must be given to authors whose works were used in the process of developing instructional materials/class produced

reviewers/design projects/video clips and learning in this course. If a student is caught cheating on an exam by his instructor or

substitute teacher, he or she will be given zero mark for the exam. If a student is caught cheating twice on the same course, the student will be referred to the Prefect of Student Affairs and be given a failing grade.

Grave misconduct other than cheating will likewise be given a failing grade. Disrespect to your teacher or to others in the

classroom will not be tolerated in the least. Argument is great but bullying, fighting, mocking, and demeaning the teacher or other students will not be allowed. Come to class on time, there can be mitigating circumstances from time to time but if it

becomes a chronic behavior you may lose points or credit for the class.

g. Consultation Schedule

Consultation schedules with the professor are posted outside the Consultation Room. It is recommended that the student first set an appointment to confirm the instructor’s availability.
