 The module grade average will be the weighted average of the module grades based on the credit units of each
module.

Module 1 Grade + Module 2 Grade + Module 3 Grade

Module Grade Average (MGA) =
3

The course grade will be determined from the module grade average using the table below:
Module Grade Average Course Grade
1.00 ≤ MGA ≤ 1.10 1.00
1.10 < MGA ≤ 1.40 1.25
1.40 < MGA ≤ 1.60 1.50
1.60 < MGA ≤ 1.85 1.75
1.85 < MGA ≤ 2.10 2.00
2.10 < MGA ≤ 2.40 2.25
2.40 < MGA ≤ 2.60 2.50
2.60 < MGA ≤ 2.85 2.75
2.85 < MGA ≤ 3.00 3.00
3.00 < MGA 5.00

Peer Review Framework

Peer reviews are randomized and are double-blind. In each exercise, the students will evaluate three other peers and
will receive three sets of evaluation from their peers in return.

All peer review exercises will have the following breakdown of grades:

Dimension Weight

Average rating from peers’ reviews 35%

Instructor’s rating** 30%
Average rating on comments on peers 35%
The weight distribution on the different dimensions of peer review ensures that:
• A representative score (average) is taken from three different evaluators (35%).
• the instructor still has a role in assigning grades (30%) and has the capability to nullify grades from peers that
are (1) done in haste, or (2) does not match the comments.
• the students will comment constructively, because inappropriate or lazy comments can be penalized (35%).
**Instructor’s rating may be removed, and its weight distributed to the remaining two fields if the class adheres well to
the peer review model (no lazy evaluations, no random score giving, thoughtfully constructed comments, etc.)

General Rubric

This is the rubric that will be used by evaluators for grading responses. Phrasing of the questions may vary to suit the
topic better. Partial points (between 1 and 10) are allowed.

Fields Lowest (1) Intermediate (5) Highest (10)

14. 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. Absence in any entire module automatically gets a failing grade on the course
regardless of class standing. Attendance of students will be checked though viewership of video lectures and
submission of practice problem sets.

b. Peer review. The peer review framework is given above and will be used for the grading of worksheets.

c. Examinations. Examinations are administered thrice during the term, first on the 4th week, second on the 8th
week, and the third is on the 11th week.

d. Course Portfolio. Selected guided learning outputs and examinations are to be compiled and collected before the
end of the term. The selection is based on statistical data gathering (lowest, median, highest). Examinations with
marks lowest, median, and highest must be photocopied and must be given back to the instructor for course
portfolio keeping.

e. 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.

f. Academic Integrity Policy. It is the student’s responsibility to refrain from infractions of academic integrity, from
conduct that may lead to suspicion of such infractions, and from conduct that aids others in such infractions. Any
of the following sanctions may be imposed to any student who is found guilty of committing online academic
dishonesty:
1. Failed mark in the course
2. Suspension for a period of less than one term, with or without community service
3. Suspension for a period of one term or more, with or without community service
4. Non-readmission to the University
5. Dismissal from the University
6. Expulsion
The following are considered academic dishonesty:
1. Using another MyMapua email address to login to any platform (such as BlackBoard and Coursera) with
or without permission. Asking or hiring someone else to do their exams, homework, Coursera course,
papers, projects or other academic requirements.
2. Recording and saving copies of exam questions or answers, or answer keys for distribution.
3. Receiving copies of exam questions or answers, or answer keys to an exam from someone who has
already taken it.
4. Plagiarizing or the unethical act of stealing the thoughts of another without proper citation or reference,
acquiring information from the Internet without acknowledging the author, copying from another student’s
work without permission and submitting it as own work.
5. Massive, pre-meditated, organized online cheating using instant messaging/email during a quiz or exam.
6. Any form of dishonesty in peer-reviewed assignments/submissions (e.g. Coursera peer-graded
submissions).
7. Engaging in any activities that will dishonestly improve results, or dishonestly improve or damage the
results of others.
8. Any other form of dishonesty or cheating in any assessment or course requirement.

All students who will violate the Academic Integrity Policy of the university will be given zero mark for the exam or
for the activity and will be given a failing grade for the course. He or she will also be referred to the Prefect of
Discipline for appropriate sanction.

g. Consultation Schedule. The consultation schedules of the Professor are posted outside the CBMES Faculty. It is
recommended that the student first set an appointment to confirm the instructor’s availability.

h. Appeal system. All appeals on student assessment must be made by the concerned student within one week after
the return of the assessed student work. In case the student is not satisfied, no later than one week after the
decision of the faculty has been made, he can elevate the appeal to the program chair or dean in case there is no
program chair. The decision of the program chair or dean is final. The faculty must abide with the moderated
decision of the program chair or dean.
