13.1 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 hrs for a three-
unit-course (6 meetings). Students incurring more than 9 hours of
unexcused absences automatically gets a failing grade regardless of class
standing.

b. Submission of Assessment Tasks (Student Outputs) should be on time;

late submittal of courseworks will not be accepted. If you have a justifying
circumstance, it must be discussed and a decision made before the due
date or it is due when the assignment is due. Copied works/tasks or any

 required material to be submitted in the class are strictly prohibited and
found guilty will be considered as cheating as well.

c. Major Examination (Long Quiz for both written and on-line and Final
Exam) will be administered as scheduled. No special exam will be given
unless with a valid reason subject for approval of the Chairman of the
Mathematics Department. Furthermore, students of this course are required
to participate actively in the events/activities organized for this course.

d. Guidelines for Taking On-Line Exams (in-campus)

Students are required to bring their own computer equipments, eg,

Laptop, NetBook; and students must ensure that their gadgets are
fully functioning and batteries are fully charged before the exam.
Tablets, such as iPads and Android Tablets, are not recommended
for use in online examinations.
Students are required to submit written solutions of their answers
in the online examination.
Students are highly recommended to bring their own source of
internet connection, eg., Broadband Sticks, Portable/Pocket WiFi
Connections, Mobile Hotspots. The use of the Mapua Free WiFi
Service might cause the student difficulties in answering his/her
exams.
The use of softwares/applications other than the student's browser
during the exam is prohibited. The student may opt to use Mozilla
Firefox, Google Chrome, Safari, Rockmelt, Internet Explorer as
his/her browser, or any internet-browsing software. The use of
softwares/applications not categorized as browsers, such as MS
Excel, MATLab, Algebrator, Adobe Reader, PhotoViewer, and the
like, is not allowed.
Only a single browser, in its most recent updated version, among
the choices of browsers, is a student allowed to use during the
period of the exam. Entering into private sessions/windows and/or
having multiple active sessions/tabs is strictly prohibited.
Access to websites other than WileyPlus.com is not allowed. Access
to online solvers such as WolframAlpha, search engines, and third-
party websites will be considered cheating.
For Google Chrome users, if problems should arise, such as the
failure of the loading of exam questions and/or digital images in
the WileyPlus examination, the student may right-click-select the
frame/pane of the exam question and choose the reload frame
option.
The use of gadgets, other than the student's computer machine,
such as cellphones, tablets, and the like, during the exam is not
allowed.
Talking during the exam is not allowed. Students are to focus solely
on their monitor screens and scratch papers. Clarifications should
be addressed directly to the Professor in charge.
Students are not allowed to print-screen or save the exam
questions, or any portion/part of the exam.
Strict checking of attendance will be done before and after the
exam. Students who send another person (ringer) in lieu of their
presence will be considered cheating.

 The professor will not be held responsible if technical problems
should arise, such as loss of internet connection, machine
malfunction, loss of battery charge.
Lastly, students are required to come on time in their respective
classes for the exam will open exactly during their respective class
periods and close automatically at the end of the class period.

e. Course Portfolio will be collected at the end of the quarter. Lost documents
will not be given due credit.

f. 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.

g. Honor, Dress and Grooming Codes

All of us have been instructed on the Dress and Grooming Codes of the
Institute. We have all committed to obey and sustain these codes. It will be
expected in this class that each of us will honor the commitments that we
have made.

For this course the Honor Code is that there will be no plagiarizing on
written work and no cheating on exams. Proper citation must be given to
authors whose works were used in the process of developing instructional
materials/class produced reviewers/design projects/video clips and learning
in this course. If a student is caught cheating on an exam by his instructor
or substitute teacher, he or she will be given zero mark for the exam. If a
student is caught cheating twice on the same course, the student will be
referred to the Prefect of Student Affairs and be given a failing grade.

Grave misconduct other than cheating will likewise be given a failing grade.
Disrespect to your teacher or to others in the classroom will not be tolerated
in the least. Argument is great but bullying, fighting, mocking, and
demeaning the teacher or other students will not be allowed. Come to class
on time, there can be mitigating circumstances from time to time but if it
becomes a chronic behavior you may lose points or credit for the class.

h. Consultation Schedule
Consultation schedules with the Professor are posted outside the Math
Faculty room and in the Schools web-page (http://che-chm.mapua.edu.ph).
It is recommended that the student first set an appointment to confirm the
instructors availability.
