Cabanatuan
least every two weeks. CRT due dates are every Wednesday, every Thursday and
every Monday, which is when various exercises and quizzes from that 2 weeks
will be due.
Hence, this is the schedule:

 Wednesdays: LESSON PROPER/ DISCUSSION
 Thursdays: ACTIVITIES
 Mondays: PRACTICE/REVIEW
 In addition to iLrn chapter activities, there are 2 quizzes, which have Monday
due dates.
