Course Requirements and Policies
Requirements and Grading 40% - Major examination
System 25% - Project 50% - Midterm grade
20% - Quizzes + 50% - Final term grade
10% - Assignments/Plates/Seatwork -----------------------------
5% - Attendance and Conduct 100% - Final grade
-----------------------------
100% - Midterm/Final term grade All Major exams shall be based on the 50% passing percentage
except quizzes, exams, assignments, seatwork plates,
attendance and conduct.
Policies (As agreed by the class) 1.Attendance will be checked at the start of each session. Students arriving 15 minutes after the start of the official class hours will be
given a mark of late. Three marks for late is automatically converted to a mark of absent. When students incur absences exceeding
20% of the total class hours for the term in a course, they will be automatically given a failing grade of 5.00 (PLV Student Manual p.
24).
2.Lectures will cover fundamental concepts presented in the reference books, instructional materials and websites provided. It is
strongly recommended and assumed that students had read the relevant text sections while the course progresses.
3.Students are allowed to take photos of class lectures, materials or equipment, however, they are prohibited to record videos and

snippets.
4.Activities, projects, plates, seatwork and homework must be completed and submitted on the due date specified. Late submissions,
regardless of reasons, are not accepted.
5.Quizzes, exam results, seatwork and homework will be returned to the students a week after submission of such activities.
6.All quizzes and major examinations are announced. Special quizzes will not be entertained regardless of reasons. Major
examinations missed due to valid reasons and with proper documentation are graded zero by default, unless a special major exam is
scheduled. Only one major examination can be waived for special schedule. Missed or failed major exams and quizzes are not
subjected for substitution for another activity.
7.There is no removal examination for this course.
8.Plagiarism and cheating, of any kind, and of any form, are not tolerated, and will be sanctioned according to the PLV Student
