COURSE POLICIES

a. Student Participation/Attendance
Student participation shall be monitored based on the modality used. There will be 24-hours synchronous sessions
and 30 hours asynchronous sessions. Schedule of the synchronous sessions may be agreed upon by the faculty and
students, but no synchronous sessions should be scheduled beyond 12:00 midnight.

b. Submission of Assessment Tasks/Outputs

Submission of assessment tasks and other requirements will be based on the agreement made by the students and
faculty. Students can submit their requirements online if they have connectivity or offline via courier if without
connectivity.

c. Academic Integrity
Students are expected to observe the MSEUF Policy on Flexible Learning Academic Integrity in the performance
of various activities and outputs as gesture of respect to their own work and the work of their peers. Corresponding
sanction/s may be imposed if student is found guilty of violating the policy on academic integrity.

d. Course Decorum
Students are expected to observe proper etiquette and avoid disruptive behaviors during synchronous sessions.

e. Major Examinations
There will be four major examinations – Preliminary, Mid-Term, Semi-final, and Final Examinations – covering
the intended COs. The final examination is the summative assessment of the COs and will have to demonstrate
understanding of the course. The examinations may be conducted online or offline (written or practical) based on
the student outcomes.

f. Issuance of Mid-Term Grade

The mid-term grade is issued to students so that formal consultation where students are apprised of their class
standing is done to afford them the opportunity to make up and to cope with the rigors of the course.

g. Course Portfolio
Selected assessment tools are to be compiled and collected before the end of the semester. The selection is based
on statistical data gathering (lowest, median, and highest). Learning tasks and examinations with marks lowest,
median and highest must be photocopied and returned to the Instructor/professor for course portfolio keeping.

h. Language of Instruction
Lectures, discussions and documentation will be in English. Written and spoken work may receive a lower mark if
the student is deficient in English.

i. Consultation Schedule
For this course, students may consult online with the Instructor/Professor on their agreed time and date. It is
recommended that the student set an appointment first to confirm the Instructor/Professor’s availability.

j. Resit/Re-examination
After the instructor/professor has computed the final grade of the student, and he obtains a failing grade, the
student has one chance for a resit/re-examination on the schedule set by the instructor/professor. Failure to take the
resit/re-examination on the announced schedule forfeits the student’s chance.
