Although the mode of instruction is blended learning, students are still being

be done as scheduled presented above through Schoology. Your academic
performance will be assessed based on the following criteria:
Please take note that tuition permits are still being checked before the
examination period. No exam no permit is still in place. The Schoology online
platform has a “locked” feature which will automatically block the student user
in submitting requirements or take examinations if they fail to submit on the
schedule of the quiz, assignment, and examination. Since this is system
automatic, late submissions will never be entertained because the teachers are
directly rating the submissions in Schoology.
Viewing of Scores in Assessment Activities and
Examinations

The Schoology platform has a feature where students can view their scores in
real time after the teacher rate their submissions and examinations. The online
platform will automatically inform the student users on how they perform in
the Assessment Activity and Examination. If a student has concerns,
clarifications, and needs explanations on the scores received, they could contact
the teacher through the contacts given. Students are encouraged to be in
contact with the teacher to make the process of learning in Blended Mode
much easier. However, students should mind the schedule of contact hours
which is only Monday to Saturday from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Inquiries done
beyond the schedule shall not be entertained by the teacher.
