Course Report by Teacher
(for all courses with or without lab)
1. Course reports are to be regularly updated throughout the term.
2. It is to be monitored by HOD-S one week before the MTE and at the end of the course, i.e.,
within the first week of the end term examination
3. The completed reports should be sent to HoD-F through HoD-S.
4. The reports will then be filed in the Master Course File and retained in the office of the HoD-F,
who will use it for the end-term review of course syllabus, and will pass on the file to the
Instruction Planner for the course in the new term.
