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 3 hrs for a three-unit-
course. Students incurring more than 3 hours of unexcused absences
automatically gets a failing grade regardless of class standing.

b. Submission of Assessment Tasks

Late submissions of courseworks will not be accepted.

c. Written Examination
A 4-year plan report applying the concepts and ideas learned from this course
will be equivalent to a written examination. The 4-year plan report will be the
summative assessment of CO1 to CO17 and will cover all topics of the course.

d. Course Portfolio
Selected Courseworks and end of terms requirements are to be compiled and
collected before the end of the term. The selection is based on statistical data
gathering (lowest, median, highest). Courseworks and end of terms
requirements with marks lowest, median, and highest must be photocopied and
must be given back to the instructor for course portfolio keeping.

e. Language of Instruction
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 and learning
in this course. If a student is caught cheating on an exam, he or she will be given
 zero mark for the exam. If a student is caught cheating twice, the student will be
referred to the Prefect of Student Affairs and be given a failing grade.

g. Consultation Schedule
Consultation schedules with the Professor are posted outside the EECE Faculty
room and in the School’s web-page (http://www.mapua.edu.ph/Schools/EECE/).
It is recommended that the student first set an appointment to confirm the
instructor’s availability.

Questions & Answers

1. Overall, what improvements would you suggest to make Intro2Eng a better course?
 To make Intro2Eng a better course, I suggest that students and professors should exert more
effort for the betterment of their selves and the course itself.

2. How might you reorganize the course procedures?

I will reorganize the course procedures to the way students will not be burnt out while doing
them and professors will not have a hard time on keeping track of the performance of students.

3. What should be modified or added in the ECE program to further strengthen the course?
To strengthen the course, the department should promote itself more to people. Also, the
program will be better if many people are engaged in it.

4. What engineering traits do you have now and what needs to be developed?
I have the desire to figure things out. I will never stop until I figure out how a certain things work.
I think my application of creativity should be developed.

5. What new technical skills did you acquire because of this course?
A technical skill that I acquired is the ability to work in groups. It's very important to interact with
people so I'm relieved that I acquired it from this course.

6. What are the strength and weakness of your group as a team?

The strength of our group is that we are all determined to finish a task given to us. Our
weakness is that it takes us some time to be motivated so it's hard for us to cope up in tasks
with a time limit.

7. Who is your “idol” engineer? Why?

Eduardo San Juan. As a Filipino, I'm proud that my fellow countrymen is a part of something the
world can't forget. San Juan was a part of the Lunar Rover project and it was a big step for us
mankind.

8. How were the course objectives satisfied?

The course objectives were satisfied by the discussions and activities that students went
through.

9. How were the program objectives satisfied?

They were satisfied through activities that promote the program to people.

10. Any other relevant comments?

The course ECE100 taught its students on how to be a good engineer so that in the future, they
are prepared to face the challenges that come along with it.

Course Work 1

Importance of Engineering

Engineering is defined as "the work of designing and creating large structures or new
products or systems by using scientific methods." A world without the concept of
engineering is unpleasing. Just imagine a building or any structure that is not planned, just
built. It is hideous. Engineering is important because it is one way of designing the world and
it is vital to the status of the economy.

Engineers around the world take their profession seriously to make sure that we can be able
to live our lives properly and with ease. Without this profession, people's lives will be harder
to live because there's no concept of designing. Infrastructures, being used by businesses to
contribute to a country's economy, are also designed using engineering. If those
infrastructures aren't designed properly, all negotiations and transactions of a business will be
greatly affected. The economy will also be affected. Thus, engineering is essential to the
economy. Without it, a country can't stand still.

If we invest appropriately in engineering, we are doing ourselves a favor by making our

economy stronger because it is designed properly. By investing, we are also slowly building
our future and the future of generations to come. If we keep investing in engineering, our
future will keep growing and maintain it.
 Graduation Plans

Martinez, Kobe Ranier T.

ECE-1/A2
ECE100

Graduation Plan

Heading into college is a major move a student makes. It takes a lot of courage to start saying goodbye to
your childhood and to have a glimpse of adulthood. College makes a student more responsible which is
very vital in being an adult. In college, students learn how to be a productive human being. College is a
really long 4 years but it's just enough to mold the students' characters. In the 4th year of college, when a
student is all set to face the world, he/she graduates.

To make sure I'll graduate and be ready to face the world, the main thing I need to do is to plan properly.
By planning, I get to know what my next steps should be towards my advancement as a person. It
prevents me from making a grieve mistake that I will end up regretting if I didn't plan. Planning also helps
me to be more practical because I have to avoid those things that will hinder me from graduating. I think
planning properly is really essential and is a must when entering college. Another thing I should do in
order to graduate is to truly understand what I need to learn as soon as possible. When a new concept is
being taught, I'll try my best to plant it in my head already. Sometimes, it's hard to do because of
preoccupation. My mind thinks a lot during the day and it's hard for me to focus. So whenever I'm calm
and I know I'm capable of understanding new concepts, I should do it as soon as possible. I should also
get enough rest if I want to graduate. I believe that there should be a balance in what we do. We shouldn't
work all of the time because we will get worn out. We shouldn't rest all of the time as well because it will
just slow us down and it can also influence our minds not to do a thing anymore. Getting enough rest is a
must because it relaxes our mind. If our mind is relaxed, we are capable of learning again. I should also
remember to have fun and enjoy while all of this is happening. Yes, college is hard. I shouldn't make it
harder by being so serious all the time. It is important to know that behind all of the things that I need to
do in order to graduate, there is genuine happiness waiting for me in the end.

To be honest, I don't know if I'm going to be able to carry out this plan. I shouldn't be intimidated just
because this plan isn't as easy as it looks like. I should believe in myself and know that I can and I will. I
will graduate.
