base equilibrium. It also deals with the study of Organic Chemistry particularly the structure, nomenclature,
properties, reactions, and applications of various organic functional groups.
The course will have a special provision on modality, pacing, pedagogy, assessment type,
communication and feedback based on the national, regional, provincial, city, and institutional guidelines for
safety amidst disaster and pandemic. Hence, this class shall be delivered in both face to face and offline/module-

GRADING SYSTEM:
1. Office365 Activation. Please ensure that your Office365 account is working. Your Office365 account is
needed to access both Schoolbook and MS Teams where your asynchronous and synchronous classes will
be held.
2. Enrollment in an E-Class. You will automatically be enrolled in your e-class which is based on your
enrollment data.
3. Traditional Blended Learning Model. This course adopts the enriched traditional blended model. This
means that there will be a mix of face-to-face and asynchronous activities, where 50% of the weekly class
is delivered face-to-face while the remaining is asynchronous.
4. Online Asynchronous Sessions.
a. Schoolbook (SB). Schoolbook shall be the only platform for asynchronous sessions.
b. Modules. Modules are self-paced learning resources for asynchronous sessions. These can be
accessed in Schoolbook.
c. References. Each page section may contain uploaded references. These learning resources may be
downloaded.
d. Asynchronous Activities. You are expected to read the modules as soon as they are uploaded. The
learning content of the modules complements the face-to-face sessions.
e. Asynchronous Engagement. Your activities in the course can be tracked by your professor. This
includes the time you spend in reading the lessons and answering the assessments.
f. Schoolbook Forum. All general concerns about the lessons and assessments in asynchronous
sessions must be posted in the Schoolbook Forum. Response shall be made by your teacher within
48 hours.
g. Schoolbook/MSTeams Messaging. This shall be the mode of communication for private and/or
confidential communications. Response shall be made by your teacher within 48 hours upon receipt
of the same unless it falls on weekends or holidays, which shall be handled promptly the following
working day.
5. Onsite / Face-to-face (F2F) Sessions.
a. Face-to-face engagement. Your engagement in face-to-face classes is graded based on your class
participation and onsite activities.
b. Classroom. F2F classes shall be held in the classroom indicated in your Certificate of Registration.
Should there be changes in the classroom venue, information will be given in advance.
c. Gospel Reading and Prayer. Each F2F session shall start with a Gospel reading and prayer. Your
teacher may assign you, in advance, to do this.
d. F2F Meeting Schedule. The meeting schedule shall follow the time indicated in your official
registration. The dates of F2F meetings are identified in the learning plan.
e. Attendance. Attendance of F2F meetings is required.
f. Tardiness. A student who came 1 minute to 15 minutes after the start of the face-to-face meeting
is considered late. Three tardy attendances are equivalent to 1 absence.
g. Absence. A student is considered absent 15 minutes after the official class schedule.
h. Excuse from F2F classes. Students are excused in the F2F classes based on the provisions in the
latest version of the Student Handbook.
i. Special Case. Asynchronous lessons/activities shall be given for missed classes due to holidays
and school activities.
j. Uniform. Wearing of uniform is required. Students should follow the policy on dress code as
stipulated in the latest version of the Student Handbook.
6. Assessment and Grading System.
a. Enabling assessments. These will comprise most of your graded assessments. These are designed
to achieve topic learning outcomes, that leads towards achieving the course learning outcomes.
These may be given asynchronously or during onsite class. Please pay attention to the duration and
number of attempts. As a general rule, quiz-type enabling assessments shall be open for only a
minimum of 24 hours, while output-based enabling assessments shall be open for at least 6 days.
Students who failed to take the enabling assessment due to valid reasons shall be given an onsite
or online synchronous assessment for one attempt and in limited time.
b. Summative Assessments. These comprise 30% of your total term grade. These are graded periodic
tasks that evaluate the academic performance of the students vis-à-vis the course and topic learning
outcomes. There shall be two summative assessments for the entire term. Summative assessments
shall be given onsite during your onsite class schedule. Students who failed to take the onsite
assessment for valid reasons shall be scheduled for onsite assessment a week after the examination
week.
c. Lifeline. Only students with (1) valid reason as stated in the Student Handbook and IRR, and (2)
given their proof of excuse on or before the next synchronous/F2F session, shall be given a lifeline
on the enabling and summative assessments.
d. Rubric. All online non-quiz or non-discrete types of assessment (essay, drop box, output-based,
etc.) shall have a rubric or criteria for rating the students’ tasks. A student may refuse to answer
these types of assessment in the absence of a rubric or criteria for grading, and the assessment shall
be deemed invalid and shall not be part of the student’s grades.
e. Grading. All online assessments should be checked and graded by the teacher before the
submission of midterm and final grades.
f. Gradebook. Students can see the breakdown of grades in their Assessment tab.
7. Self-Care.
a. Schedule. There is one schedule of Self-Care week during the Second Semester SY2022-2023,
which is on April 24-29, 2023. During this week, there shall be no synchronous meetings, F2F
classes, new modules, new assessments, and deadlines.
b. Prerogative. Students may avail of the self-care program, whether online or onsite, provided by
the different units of the University.
8. Copyright and Plagiarism.
a. Using any illegally obtained software and other technology tools is strictly prohibited.
b. Students are encouraged to use their original photos, videos, and other resources. Otherwise,
students can use royalty-free resources or embed the sources in their submissions to avoid copyright
infringement and/or plagiarism.
c. Giving of password to Schoolbook and Office 365 is strictly prohibited. Likewise, accessing
Schoolbook and Office 365 account other than the students’ personal account is also strictly
prohibited. Violating students will be reported to the Student Welfare and Formation Office
(SWAFO).
d. This subject shall abide by the policies pertaining to intellectual property, copyright, and plagiarism
as stipulated in the latest edition of the Student Handbook.
e. Any plagiarized work, whether in part or full, shall mean a grade of 0.0 for the assessment.
9. This course shall abide by any institutional policies that may be released after the approval of this
syllabus. Any such policy shall be posted within the e-class at the forums section, news feed. It will
also be briefly discussed during the soonest synchronous meeting.
