have at least 7 meters x 9 meters or 63 square meters.

1. All students should be sage and comfortably seated.
2. The ventilation and temperature for the entire room should be conducive for learning and instruction.
3. The audiovisual facilities should be properly situated to ensure clear presentation visible form all areas of the classroom.
GRADING: 1. Transparency in the grading system keeps the instructors and the students accountable and aware of where they stand. It
exudes trustworthiness, which plays a vital role in nurturing good school relations and raising students’ achievement. Hence,
this should be discussed during the class orientation.

1. To conform to Outcomes-Based Education, students’ learning would be assessed using these two criteria: Written Works
(40%) and Performance Tasks (60%). Written Works include but are not limited to quizzes, long examinations (including
Preliminary, Midterm, and Final Examinations), essays, written reports, etc. while Performance Tasks include but are not
limited to performance/products/outputs, class participation/attendance, oral reporting, demonstrations, etc.

WRITTEN WORKS (40%) PERFORMANCE TASKS (60%)

Quizzes 30% Performance/Products/Outputs 50%
Long Examinations (Unit Tests/Prelims/ Oral Reporting/Demonstrations 35%
Midterms/Finals) 50% Class Participation/Attendance 15%
Written Reports/Simple Reflections 20%

Grades will therefore be calculated as follows:

Preliminary Grade = 0.4 (Written Works) + 0.6 (Performance Tasks)

Midterm Grade = 0.4 (Written Works) + 0.6 (Performance Tasks)
