13.1 Aside from academic deficiency, others grounds for a failing grade are:



A failing academic standing and failure to take the final exam
Grave misconduct other than cheating
Excessive absences (in excess of 20% of total class hours)
14. Other Course Policies
a. Attendance
According to CHED policy, total number of absences by the students should not be more than 20% of
the total number of meetings or 9 hours for a three-unit course. Students incurring more than 9 hours
of unexcused absences automatically gets a failing grade regardless of class standing.
b. Submission of Assessment Tasks
Late submissions of Learning Activities will not be accepted.
c. Written Examination
There will be 3 quizzes covering the intended COs. The final examination will be the summative
assessment of the three COs and will have to demonstrate understanding of the course. Short bond
papers will be used as answer sheet on all written examinations.
d. Course Portfolio
Selected assessment tools are to be compiled and collected before the end of the term. The selection is
based on statistical data gathering (lowest, median, highest). Learning tasks and examinations with

marks lowest, median, and highest must be photocopied and must be given back to the instructor for
course portfolio keeping.
e. Language of Instruction
Lectures, discussion, and documentation will be in English. Written and spoken work may receive a
lower mark if it is, in the opinion of the instructor, deficient in English.
f. Honor, Dress and Grooming Codes
Students must abide with the Dress and Grooming Codes of the Institute.
For this course the Honor Code is that there will be no plagiarizing on written work and no cheating on

material for this course. If a student is caught cheating on an exam, he or she will be given zero mark
for the exam. If a student is caught cheating twice, the student will be referred to the Prefect of Student
Affairs and be given a failing grade.
