(Individual and group parformances) –are scheduled.
Short quizzes are unannounced and are usually given
at the start or near the end of the lecture period or topic.
Take Home Exam/Assignments should be taken
responsibly through individual or team effort to
maximize peer tutoring and cooperative learning.
Individual contribution to group work and group
activities will be rated by the instructor and by the co-
group members. Student must get a rating of 75% or
3.0 passing percentage for his/her final grade.
Course Requirements
Attendance 10%
Quizzes/written activities 20%
absences for a course stipulated in the Student Handbook. The only valid excuses
for missing exam are illness or a personal/family emergency of a serious nature
provided by an excuse letter signed by the student and guardian.
It shall be the instructor’s prerogative to allow any student to make-up for a
missed requirement upon presentation of proof of excuse.
Cooperative Learning:
The goal is to have everyone learn more than they would have working
alone. Nevertheless, individual work provides foundation for productive and
synergistic group work. Four or five groups will be formed. These will be used in-
class discussion. Presentation of output will be done on a rotation basis. All
students will evaluate themselves and their fellow group members with respect to
contributions to group function. This evaluation will contribute to the class standing
portion of the course grade and will be used primarily in deciding borderline grades.
Proper Clothing:
One of the responsibilities of the students is to wear PE uniforms during
classes. Wearing sleepers inside the classroom will not be allowed to enter the
class unless there are specific reason for not wearing shoes (there is a heavy rain
or flood). Wearing shorts or sando is prohibited.
Academic Honesty Policy:
It is part of your education to learn responsibility and self-discipline,
particularly with regards to academic honesty. The most important issue of
academic honesty is cheating. Cheating is defined to include an attempt to defraud,
deceive, or mislead the instructor in arriving at an honest assessment. Plagiarism is
a form of cheating that involves presenting as one’s own work the ideas or work of
another.
All portions of any test, project, or final exam submitted by you for a grade
must be your own work, unless you are instructed to work collaboratively. Specific
requirements will be described for collaborative projects, but all work presented
must be the work of members of that group. Research materials used must be
properly cited. Cheating in a major course examination by a student will entail a
failing mark 5.0 for the given course. Cheating, dishonesty or plagiarism in papers
and other works will entail zero (0) score for the said requirement.
