 Disruptive Behaviors. Students are expected to
RULES AND REGULATIONS comply with the school regulations regarding
appropriate off-line or online classroom
behavior. Some specific examples (but not
GOOD MANNERS limited to) of disruptive behavior that may not
be tolerated in this class are:
◈ Be Polite. (Learn to familiarize your
◈ Posting rude, disrespectful, offensive or

◈ Say good morning! ◈ Unauthorized sharing of information
◈ Please! posted in a course discussion board
◈ Posting inappropriate links to websites
◈ Excuse!
◈ Spamming classmates email with
◈ Thank you! inappropriate messages
◈ Violating netiquette rules

Netiquette Rules
◈ Be kind and Professional. Make a point to be kind and respectful in your
comments-even if you disagree with someone.
◈ Don’t abuse the chat box. The class chat box isn’t an instant messenger
like you’d use with friends. Treat it like the learning tool it’s meant to be,
and try not to distract your classmates with off-topic discussions.
◈ TYPING IN ALL CAPS IS INAPPROPRIATE. Most readers tend to
perceive it as shouting and will have a hard time taking what you say
seriously, no matter how intelligent your response may be.

3
◈ Submit files the right way. You won’t be printing assignments and handing
to them to your teacher in person, so knowing how to properly submit your
work online is the key to your success as an online student.
◈ Read first. Take time to read through each of the previous discussion post
responses before writing your own response.
◈ Think before you click. What you share in an online classroom is part of a
permanent digital record. Whether or not privacy settings are in place, the
internet has a tendency to house things forever, and what you say privately
can easily become public. It’s worth taking a moment to reflect before
hitting the send button.

 Republic Act 9710:
Magna Carta of Women
The Magna Carta of Women (MCW) is a comprehensive women’s
human rights law that seeks to eliminate discrimination through the recognition, protection,
fulfillment, and promotion of the rights of Filipino women, especially those belonging in
the marginalized sectors of the society. 

Declaration of Policy. 
Recognizing that the economic, political, and sociocultural realities affect women’s
current condition, the State affirms the role of women in nation building and ensures the

CHED MEMORANDUM ORDER. No. 01. Series of
2015
ESTABLISTING THE POLICIES AND GUIDELINES ON GENDER AND DEVELOPMENT IN
THE COMMISSION ON HIGHER EDUCATION AND HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS (HEI’s)
GENERAL POLICY AND COVERAGE
Gender mainstreaming is one of the major strategies in educating and informing various sectors of
society on the need to recognize and respect rights of women and men. Educating more women translates to
additional socioeconomic gains that benefit entire societies, including increased economic productivity,
higher family incomes, more informed members of society, and respect for the rights of women. Gender
mainstreaming in higher education is therefore essential not only to individual but also national
development, higher education being the central site for facilitating the skills, knowledge and
expertise important to economic and social development. These guidelines seek to introduce and
institutionalize gender equality, gender responsiveness and sensitivity in the various aspects of
Philippine higher education.

23
KCAST, with its desire to give awareness and recognition
to the role and contributions of women in nation-building
as catalysts of societal development, ensures that
women’s, as well as men’s concerns and experiences,
are an integral dimension of the design, implementation,
monitoring, and evaluation of policies and programs in
curriculum, research and extension so that women and
men benefit equally and inequality is not perpetuated.
(MCW and PCW MC 2011-01)
24
KCAST develops and promotes
gender-sensitive curriculum
instruction, research, and
extension.

25
KCAST develops programs and policies to
prevent VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN (VAW), including
instructional mechanisms for complaints in cases
of rape, sexual harassment, and other forms of
violence and discrimination against women, and
provide assistance to students, faculty, or
personnel who have been victims of VAW.
