(For colleges which need to

equipment)
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.
2. 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.
MAJOR EXAMINATIONS (40%) CLASS STANDING (60%)

Prelim Examination Written Works (Quizzes, Long Exams, Reflection Papers)
Midterm Examination Performance/Products/Outputs
Final Examination Oral Reporting/Demonstrations
Class Participation/Attendance
Grades will therefore be calculated as follows:

Preliminary Grade = 0.4 (Major Examination) + 0.6 (Class Standing)
Midterm Grade = 0.4 (Major Examination) + 0.6 (Class Standing)
End term Grade = 0.4 (Major Examination) + 0.6 (Class Standing)
Final Grade = (Prelim Grade + Midterm Grade + End term Grade)/3
3. A faculty member can file a grade of Incomplete (INC) only for students that have satisfactory class standing but with the
following deficiencies: (1) an excusable absence for a major examination (lack of examination) and Finals Permit; (2) failure
to submit a course requirement as indicated in the syllabus. Compliance to the mentioned course requirements should be
done by the students one year after the INC grade has been filed at the Registrar’s Office. Failure to comply within the given
period means the student has to retake the course.
Note: Class Standing includes any/all of the following:

Recitation, quizzes/test, homework, seatwork, laboratory exercises, class reports, projects, etc.

CLASSROOM FOR ONLINE CLASSES

MANAGEMENT POLICY
1. The Canvas is the primary Learning Management System to be used by both the instructors and learners. Both parties are
expected to maximize the utilization of its features.
2. During the first week of the semester, the instructor will upload the course syllabus and course guide in the Canvas
Course Card to guide students to the kind of teaching and learning they can expect in class and lead them to take
responsibility for their education. Likewise, a schedule for online consultation and mentoring period for students should
be announced by the instructor during the class orientation. IT should be emphasized that there should be no calls,
inquiries and unnecessary messaging between and among the instructors and students after school hours.
3. The online modality of learning includes synchronous and asynchronous learning sessions.
a. Synchronous Learning Session – For every class, synchronous learning sessions are scheduled at least once a
week or as indicated in the learner’s guide and in accordance to the class schedule. Instructors and students are
encouraged to use the Canvas Conference feature, in cases when Zoom Meeting and Google Meet are to be used,

the links should be posted in the Canvas Course Card Announcements for documentation purposes. Moreover,
students are expected to switch on their cameras in the duration of the session and microphones are to be turned
off unless otherwise called to recite. Both the instructors and students should observe decorum.
b. Asynchronous Learning Session – This refers to the time for students to self-study by viewing and or reading
posted instructional materials and accomplishing learning tasks relevant to the topic/s discussed during the
synchronous learning sessions.
4. Uploaded files by both the instructors and students should conform to the copyright law. Both parties should strictly
avoid plagiarism. Furthermore, the university takes account of data privacy in collecting data and educational records.
Hence, the instructor and students are ethically obliged the model acceptable digital/online citizenship practices and
behaviors.
5. Attendance of students should be checked and be reflected in the Canvas Attendance. Suppose a student already reached
the maximum number of absences in the synchronous classes (20% of the total school hours for a course) shall be
dropped from the class. The instructors are responsible in calling the attention of students incurring consecutives and
unmeritorious absences.
6. All students’ submissions should be made using the Canvas LMS. Needless to say, all activities/requirements that have
been submitted after the set deadline are considered late. The instructors should discuss with the students during the class
orientation the point deductions of all activities that are submitted late, this should be emphasized to reinforce student
responsibility and discipline.
FOR FACE TO FACE CLASSES

4.2.1 At the beginning of the term, the faculty member should orient students in class about the school vision, mission and
objectives, the CHAMPS culture, school policies on the grading and the rating system, use of the library and other
facilities, ISO Certification concepts and objectives, etc.
4.2.2. Faculty members are responsible for the monitoring and recording of student attendance so that data on enrolment,
tardiness, absences and withdrawal of enrolment from school can be easily and speedily checked. The policy on
student attendance should be strictly enforced to prevent giving credit to students who do not meet the minimum
attendance requirements.

In consonance with the provisions of the Manual of Regulations for Private Higher Education, faculty members should
be guided by the policy on student attendance/monitoring of absences, to wit: a student who incurs absences of more
than twenty percent (20%) of the prescribed number of lecture/laboratory class hours before midterm examination,
shall be dropped and not be given credit for the course or subject.
4.2.3. The faculty member is expected to be always adequately prepared before entering his class. Teaching strategies and
techniques should be appropriate to the topic at hand and should promote mutual interaction between the teacher and
student/pupils. Judicious use of audio-visual equipment and other ICT infrastructures is encouraged.
The faculty member should utilize remedial/homework and other related tasks to assist students/pupils who are
unusually incapable to meet the regular requirements of the subject or for the particular year/grade level.
4.2.4. The faculty member should keep in mind that mastery of the subject matter is a pre-requisite for effective teaching. He
should update his knowledge and skills through continuing education, reading related materials, attending seminars
and the like.
4.2.5. The faculty member should acquaint himself with the latest methods and techniques of instruction. Creativity is
encouraged to arouse the students’/pupils’ interest and to develop their potential to the fullest.
4.2.6. Requirements for the curriculum such as field trips, seminars, etc. should, as much as possible, be scheduled on
weekends or at the end of the semester or summer so that students/pupils shall not incur absences in their other classes.
4.2.7 Smoking, eating, and selling inside the classroom are prohibited. The faculty member shall ensure that the black/white
board is cleaned and that all lights and fans are turned off before leaving the classroom.
