COURSE GUIDE

The key to successfully finish this online course lies in your hands. This module was
prepared for you to learn diligently, intelligently, and independently. As would-
be-teacher, doing these will greatly help and prepare you to become a great
teacher. Aside from meeting the content and performance standards of this
course in accomplishing the given activities, you will be able to learn other
invaluable learning skills which you will be very proud of as a responsible learner.
The following guides and house rules will help you further to be on track and to
say at the end of the module, "I did well!"

1. Schedule and manage your time to read and understand every part of the
module. Read it over and over until you understand the point. Please note
that due to the problems on erratic internet connections and to be able to
cooperate with the government in observing the ECQ protocols, this online
course will be delivered asynchronously.
2. Study how you can manage to do the activities of this course in
consideration of your other modules from other courses. Be very conscious
with the study schedule. Post it on a conspicuous place so that you can
always see. Do not ask your course facilitator about questions that are
already answered in the guide.
3. Log in to the course site at least thrice a week (if you can log in daily, do
so) and as scheduled to keep abreast of important announcements,
discussions, and other class activities. Check the STREAM page every time
you log in for possible announcements.
4. Do not procrastinate. Remember, it is not others who will be short-changed
if you will not do your work on time.
5. Before you start doing your tasks, read and understand the assessment tools
provided. Do not settle with the low standards, target the highest standards
in doing your assigned tasks. I know you can.
6. You are free to browse and read the different materials even prior to doing
the tasks in each unit of the module. However, you need to ensure that you
 will not missed any part of the module and you will not missed to
accomplish every activity in every unit as scheduled.
7. All course discussions will be conducted using Google Meet and Google
Hangouts. If you will be using mobile app of Google Meet and Google
Hangouts, stay logged in so you can engage in the discussion anytime and
anywhere. If you are using the desktop app, regularly log in to stay in the
discussion.
8. All the discussions are academic discussions, which mean that the relevant
academic conventions apply.
a. Your post should be composed of complete and grammatically
correct sentences. Do not use abbreviations and acronyms unless
these are introduced in the readings, and do not write in text-speak.
Avoid writing in all caps.
b. post appropriate and well-thought rejoinders. Avoid merely
approving or disapproving with your classmates and course
facilitators. You need to support your inputs in the discussions from
reliable information and resources. Do not post uninformed opinions.
c. Read and analyze the contributions made by your classmates in the
discussion forums. Respond appropriately and courteously. Always
use proper language.
d. Be polite and respectful arguing a point and in defending your
opinions. Do not be rude and do not make remarks that may be
construed as a personal attack. Refer to ideas/statements, not the
person. Remember that the objective of academic discussion is to
develop your critical and analytical thinking skills apart from
contributing to the wealth of knowledge.
e. Do not post lengthy contributions. Stick to the point. Be clear what
your main point is and express it as concisely as possible. Do not let
the discussion stray.
f. Quote your sources in the online discussion by mentioning the last
name of the author and the year. No need to use a particular style.
g. Protect your privacy. Ponder before you post. If you wish to share
something private, do it by email or private chat.
9. Do not plagiarize and do not patch write. Patchwriting is still a form or
plagiarism. It refers to the act of making small changes and substitutions to
copied source material (Merriam-Webster, 2020).
10. Follow the schedule of course activities. Always remind yourself of
deadlines. Read in advance. Try to anticipate possible conflicts between
your personal schedule and the course schedule, and make the
appropriate adjustments. Try your best to inform through any means your
 course facilitator for any unavoidable delays or "absences" or "silences" of
more than a week's duration or other concerns.
11. Note that our Google Classroom is a virtual learning environment, not a
social networking site. Use recent and appropriate ID photo on your profile
page for proper identification.
12. Lastly, you are the learner; hence, you do the module on your own. Your
family members and friends at home will support you but the activities must
be done by you. As Louisan, we always need to demonstrate our core
values of competence, creativity, social involvement and Christian spirit.
