COURSE POLICIES AND REQUIREMENTS

1. Enrollment in an E-Class. Your teacher shall enroll you in the e-class. This will be based on the class list
provided by the Office of the University Registrar and at the portal. For those who opted for printed modules,
you will only be given the module if you are officially enrolled.

2. Communication and Feedback


a. Online Synchronous Communication shall happen as indicated in the learning plan section of the
syllabus.
b. Online Asynchronous Communication shall happen when the faculty utilizes at least one of the
recommended asynchronous communication. The minimum response time for asynchronous
communication is 24 hours, excluding Sundays and holidays. All communication platforms must be
explicitly indicated in the syllabus. Below are the recommended asynchronous communication
platforms:
i. Forum – at the Forum Tab at Schoolbook, students can post their general concerns. The forum
is public and any post can be seen by the class.
ii. Messaging – at Schoolbook. Any private or confidential matters must may be messaged
through Schoolbook messaging feature.
iii. Email – you may email your professor at jpsarte@dlsud.edu.ph
c. Offline Communication are only for Students who opted for Printed Modules. Text messaging subject
to strict confidentiality agreement between the student and the professor maybe used. This mode of
communication is exclusive only for the specified type of student. Calls may be entertained within
working hours (8AM to 5PM), while text messages may be responded to within 24 hours, excluding
Sundays and holidays.
d. No using of foul, curse, and other bad words, whether in written or verbal. No shouting. No flooding
of chat and messages. No selling.

3. Attendance Policy
a. Attendance Policy for Online Classes is scheduled based on the learning plan. Attendance, especially
in synchronous classes, shall not be a basis for receiving a failing grade. It will not comprise any grade
in the class standing.
b. RSVP as part of an ethical process of conducting online meetings, the following will be observed:
i. The synchronous meeting will be made by the teacher at least 14 calendar days before its
schedule.
ii. The student must RSVP at least three days before the scheduled synchronous meeting.
iii. The faculty will announce two days before the calendared synchronous meeting if it will push
through or if it will be cancelled. If cancelled, the faculty will announce a replacement
asynchronous activity and the new schedule of the synchronous meeting.
c. The minimum required attendees in synchronous class shall be 50 percent of the entire class. It is the
faculty’s prerogative whether to continue or discontinue the session if it does not reach 50 percent.
However, if the attendees are less than 20 percent of the total class, the synchronous session will be
rescheduled, an asynchronous learning activity will take the place of the supposed synchronous
meeting.
d. All synchronous meetings will be recorded and embedded into a schoolbook page section. It will also
be accessed by students at MS Teams and other institutionally subscribed video hosting platform.
e. The synchronous meeting will only be held at the schedule indicated in the registration form.

4. Intellectual Property Policy


a. Policy and copyright infringement will not be tolerated. Any violation of such will earn students a
grade of zero in the assessment.
b. Using of any illegally obtained software is strictly prohibited.
c. Students are encouraged to use their original photos, videos, and other resources. Otherwise, students
can use royalty-free resources or embed the sources in their submissions to avoid copyright
infringement and/or plagiarism.
d. Inviting people, that are not part of the class, in synchronous meetings is strictly prohibited, unless
approved by the subject teacher. Posing as another person during a synchronous activity is strictly
prohibited.
e. Giving of password to Schoolbook and Office 365 is strictly prohibited. Likewise, accessing
Schoolbook and Office 365 account other than the students’ personal account is also strictly
prohibited. Violating students will be reported to the Student Welfare and Formation Office
(SWAFO).

5. Other Policies
a. Attire - students must wear decent casual or smart-casual attire prescribed by the Student Handbook.
b. Microphone Use – microphone must be muted and only unmuted when the teacher requires them to.
c. Video – videos may be used by the teacher to validate attendance. However, the student can choose to
turn off the video if the teacher allows them to.
d. Use of English is required for any presentation including the question and answer. Tagalog or Taglish
can be used during consultation.
