regular classes before or after discussion of course topics. No make-up quizzes will be
given.

course topics covered in class. Students must submit both the written analysis and the

meritorious cases, acceptance of late submission will also necessitate automatic
deduction as agreed upon.
Midterms and Finals should be taken on scheduled exam dates. No special exams will

All students are expected to be academically honest. Any student found guilty of
cheating, lying and other forms of unethical behavior in examination or submitted course
requirements will automatically be given a 5.0.
On class attendance:
Be conscientious in your attendance.
Bear in mind time is more precious than gold. You have to humbly admit that theres a
lot to learn from your teacher and from your classmates every single meeting.
If you incur an unexcused absence, any class activity missed for that day of absence will
merit you zero points. However, if you incur an excused absence, the class activity
missed for that day will not be considered in the computation of your grade. You are,
however, required to submit an excuse letter properly noted by or approved by the Dean,
or associate dean or the division chair, as the case may be. Otherwise, your absence
will be considered unexcused.
 Technology Restrictions:

Keep your cell phone on mute or silent mode while in class.

during class hours except when required.

If an electronic device creates a class disturbance, you will be asked to step out of the
classroom.

Tips for success Here are some tips on how to succeed in this course.
Be prepared when you come to class. Study every day, from the first day to the last day
of classes. If you do not finish the course topic assignment for today, it is more likely
that you will not be able to finish the alloted course topic assignment for tomorrow.
Diligence is always the key to accomplishing anything you aim for. Labor or effort is
directly proportional to its fruit or end result. The harder you labor, the more fruits
you reap and bring in. That only the intelligent excel is a myth.
Be polite and respectful. Education is worthless if you do not recognize the value of
good relations and fair dealings.
It is your right and your duty to present to your teacher points of clarification IF despite
a thorough reading of the assigned topics there are some points you need to make
clear. If your teacher(s) do not receive any such concerns, it is presumed that you
have fully understood the area(s) under discussion.
Be optimistic. Learning is most effective when you are confident, positive and relaxed.
