CLASS POLICIES

a. A student with 3 consecutive absences will be DROPPED from the class.

b. Academic dishonesty will not be tolerated. Any student proven to have committed academic dishonesty shall be subjected to appropriate sanctions based on prevailing
policies and guidelines provided by the Student Handbook. The State Institute’s Code of Conduct prohibits students from committing the following acts of academic
dishonesty: academic fraud, copying or allowing one’s work to be copied, fabrication/falsification, sabotage of other’s work, substitution (ex. Taking an exam for someone else)
among others.
c. EXAMS. This course requires two major exams which will be scheduled during midterm and final examination weeks. The exams will be departmental in nature in the event
that there are more than one course offerings of this subject in a particular semester. Schedule of the said exams will be announced one-week before the scheduled date. In
addition, there will be an individual tasks assessment such as moving exam, portfolio, demonstration and other related task assessment which will be scheduled a week before
the Midterm and Final exams.
d. ASSIGNMENTS / ATTENDANCE/BOARD WORKS/ORAL RECITATION. Quizzes will be given as one of the assessment tasks of this course. It is the instructor's
discretion if his/her quizzes are announced or unannounced and that would include topics that are recently discussed in class. No make-up exams for missed quizzes /

The final grade corresponding to the student’s general percentage is given in the table below:
