Field Work/Laboratory Exercise Guidelines
 The class is divided into 5 groups in performing the
laboratory exercise which involves the use of
Surveying Equipment. However, each student must
submit their own laboratory report in an A4 size
paper.
 Each group must choose a leader and a recorder who
shall accomplish the Borrower’s Slip duly signed by
his/her instructor before the release of the surveying
equipment.

Group Discussion/Group Activity
 This activity needs six (6) students from this class and must
answer the following questions through a “Role Play”.

Scenario #1
Many students from CSU said that their major
examination is as tough as board examination since
few of them failed to meet the passing grade. Then,
a student from other school or outsider visited your
campus and conducted an interview to students
about CSU’s mission and vision in order for him/her
to assess what kind of education the University is
trying to uphold. How will you explain to the outsider
the CSU’s mission and vision?
