ASSESSMENT AND GRADING
COURSE POLICIES AND EXPECTATIONS
Class Attendance (Article 2, Section 14 of PSU Student Handbook)
1. If you have a record of ten (10) unapproved absences from the class, and/or have been absent for more than 20 percent of the required number of hours without any valid
reason, you will be automatically dropped from the subject.
2. Approved absences are limited only to illness as certified by a physician, death of a family member, official and authorized representation of Campus/University in official
function/ activities and other reasons as may be deemed justified by your instructor.
3. For excused absences, it is your responsibility to seek out missed assignments. You should check the official PSU LMS, official class FB page/group messenger and your
classmates for notes, hand-outs, etc.
Classroom Expectations
1. Be Prepared. Your grade is your sole responsibility. Earn the good grade you deserve by coming to class prepared. Complete reading assignments and other
homework before class so that you can understand the lecture and participate in discussion. Have your homework ready to submit and always bring your
book, notebook, paper and writing materials. You are not allowed to borrow anything from your classmates to ensure avoidance of virus transmission.
This is for your health’s safety. Also, each of you is assigned to be the prayer leader for the day. If you are assigned to lead, please be ready with your
prayer. (Accountability, Credibility and Integrity, Spirituality)
2. Be Participative. Be ready and willing to participate in classroom discussions. Contribute proactively to class discussions. Do not hesitate to ask questions during class
discussions. Remember, you came to school to learn. (Competence and Commitment to Achieve Excellence)
3. Be Punctual. Seat plan will be used for the checking of attendance. If you are not on your designated area once the class has started, you will be considered late/absent.
Submit your homeworks/problem sets/ class activities on time too. (Accountability, Competence and Commitment to Achieve Excellence)
4. Be Respectful. Any action that bothers another student or the teacher, or any disruptive behavior in class, is considered disrespectful. Demonstrate proper respect for
teachers, your classmates, other university personnel and all university property. Listen to others and evaluate ideas on their own merit. (Social

Responsiveness)
5. Be Tidy. Cleanliness is next to Godliness. Wear your complete proper uniform. Likewise, your activities must be clean and properly stapled. Loose leaves are prone to
be misplaced. Your clean work reflects that homeworks/problem sets are well-prepared. Before leaving the classroom, please make sure that your place is
clean. Pick up litters and throw them on the designated trash bins. (Accountability, Credibility and Integrity, Competence and Commitment to Achieve
Excellence, Social and Environmental Responsiveness)
Technology Agreement
1. The use of electronic devices such as laptops, tablets and cell phones inside the classroom is ONLY ALLOWED WITH MY PERMISSION. Charging of your electronic
devices is prohibited inside the class. Please make sure they are fully charged before bringing them to class.
2. Cell phones and other devices need to be set in silent mode. For emergency purposes, please request to take the call/answer the text message outside the classroom.
Academic Honesty and Class Conduct
Cheating in Examination and Quizzes (Article 14, Section 1-n of PSU Handbook):
1
st
Offense : Automatic grade of 5.0 in the particular examination where cheating occurred; referral to guidance counselor.
2
nd
offense : Automatic grade of 5.0 if done on the same subject and/or other subjects and suspension for one semester.
3
rd
offense : Automatic grade of 5.0 in the subject/s and suspension of one semester to dismissal from the institution.
Guidelines on Late Submissions of Requirements and Late Examinations
1. The dates of the submission for all home-based requirements are indicated in the Instructional Delivery Plan. Five points will be deducted for every day of failure to
submit said requirements (except for approved absences).
2. You are only allowed to take missed examinations due to approved absence. Please fill up the Request for Special Examination before taking the missed exam.
