COURSE POLICIES
a. Student Participation/Attendance
Student participation shall be monitored based on the modality used. There will be 15-hours synchronous sessions and 39 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 9:30 p.m. On-ground synchronous sessions will be determined based on the course outcomes.
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. Missed Work or Examination
Any student who missed any graded formative assessment activities (exercises, quiz, assignment, output paper, project, etc.) or take a test should consult the concerned instructor about the compliance.
d. Academic Integrity
Students are expected to observe the MSEUF Policy on Hybrid 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.
e. Course Decorum
Students are expected to observe proper etiquette and avoid disruptive behaviors during synchronous sessions.
f. Major Examinations
There will be four major examinations – Preliminary, Midterm, Semifinal, and Final Examinations – covering the intended COs. The major examinations are the summative assessment of the COs. The
examinations may be conducted on-ground (written or practical) or online (critical thinking type, qualitative, case/project-based) depending on the student outcomes to be achieved.
g. 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.
h. 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.
i. 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.
j. Consultation Schedule
For this course, students may consult online with the Instructor/Professor on the agreed time and date. It is recommended that the student set an appointment first to confirm the Instructor/Professor’s
availability.
k. Resit/Re-examination

QUALITY FORM
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.
