WEIGHT, % WEIGHT, %
The student is required to obtain a minimum course grade of 3.0 to pass the course.
The module grades of the student are interpreted using the table below:
Above 91.51 – 87.01- 82.51 – 78.01 – 73.51 – 69.01 – 64.51 – 60.00 – Below

MODULE GRADE 1.00 1.25 1.50 1.75 2.00 2.25 2.50 2.75 3.00 IP
The module grade average will be the weighted average of the module grades based on the credit units of each module:
∑#𝑖=1

The course grade will be determined through the module grade average using the following table:
Here are the grade scenarios that the students may obtain:
Aside from academic deficiency, other grounds to fail the course are the following:
Intellectual dishonesty (cheating and plagiarism) during assessments, online activities, and other requirements.
Other grounds as stipulated in the MMCM Student Catalogue, and other relevant policies and regulations that may be
promulgated from time to time.

LANGUAGE OF INSTRUCTION
English is the medium of instruction. Lectures, discussions, and documentation will be in English. Code switching is highly discouraged
and the use of other languages aside from English in communicating and in presenting course works will be a valid ground for demerits
in that given exercise.
ATTENDANCE
Per Section 1551 of CHED’s Manual of Regulations for Private Educational Institutions, a student who has incurred absences more than
twenty percent (20%) of the total number of school days shall not be given credit to the course regardless of class standing. For further
provisions of the said policy, please refer to the MMCM Student Catalogue.
COURSE PORTFOLIO
All exercises and requirements for the course are to be completed and compiled as part of the portfolio. The same must be made
available for inspection by the adviser and coordinator whenever necessary.
INTERVENTION PROGRAMS
Whenever necessary, faculty members may schedule Blackboard Collaborate classes or post additional activities on the LMS to
facilitate student attainment of outcomes. Students are also encouraged to set an appointment with their instructors for face-to-face
or online consultation. Discussion boards and course messaging are available on the LMS for post-class discussions to help facilitate
the learners’ understanding of course coverage.
APPEAL SYSTEM
Appeals on Assessment Task results must be made by the concerned student within one week after the release of the results. In cases
where a student disagrees with the decision of the faculty member regarding the appeal, the student may elevate the appeal to the
program chair or dean no later than one week after the decision of the faculty has been made. The decision of the program chair or
dean is final. The faculty member must abide with the moderated decision of the program chair or dean.
