Oral Examination

For Gen-Ed and major subjects in College of Maritime Education, instructors carry out oral exams like
mock interview for communication skills, oral recitation for major subjects, and panel interview for
other subjects via zoom, MS Teams, or Google Meet.

Video Presentation

Given the rubrics, students are encouraged to submit a video presentation of their outputs. Examples
are demonstrating CPR, procedures in using portable fire extinguishers, and physical education exercises
among others.

Infographics

Students are required to submit their outputs in drawings/drafting and other information-related topics
using different apps such as canva, snapseed, lightroom or any of their choice as long as they meet the
minimum standard.

Moodle/Portal for Summative/Periodic Test

Each test is on schedule basis. There is a time limit for every quiz or periodic test. Students may log in to
the portal/platform using their school ID and password to access the application. Assessment is given
with scrambled items per student.

Remote Exams via Zoom

Using the “remote” access in zoom, students can demonstrate and carry out simulation assessment or
laboratory via Zoom app. Teacher and assesse are virtually present and carry out the task.
