COURSE STUDY GUIDE
The key to successfully finish this course lies in religiously following all the instructions in all
the learning modules and in your diligence in studying. This module was prepared for you
to learn diligently, intelligently, and independently. Keeping yourself rself motivated to follow
the schedules specified in the learning plan, maintaining excellence in the expected
student outputs, and mastering the different technologies and procedures required in the
delivery and feedback for this course, will instill in yyou
ou important qualities you will need in
the future as an engineer practicing your profession. The following study guides and
house rules are designed for you to practice decorum consistent with standards expected
within a formal academic environment. These These guides shall lay the groundwork for
consistency, coherence, cooperation, and clear communication among learners and
course facilitators throughout the conduct of this course:
1. MANAGE YOUR TIME. TIME. Learning through independent study has several advantages
over
ver learning in the classroom. You are in charge of how you learn and you can
choose how quickly you will complete the course. You can read as many lessons as
you wish in a single session. You do not have to wait for your teacher or classmates.
ing for my feedback of your accomplished tasks,
While waiting tasks continue doing the
tasks in the succeeding units of the module. Create a study routine and stick to it.
Keep requirement deadlines and study schedules always in mind by providing
place of study or listed in your reminders (electronically,
visual cues posted in your place
online, or on paper). Remember that there are other daily activities that take up
your time, not to mention other courses you may be concurrently taking. Choose
likely to maximize learning. Communicate your
a time of day when you are most likely
schedule to other members of your household so they could help you keep it. It
would also help to prepare a dedicated space in your residence conducive for
learning.
2. MIND YOUR MANNERS. Treat the distance learning ning environment as an academic
space not too different from a physical classroom. Do not do in the distance
learning environment, acts you would not normally do in a faceface-to-face classroom
set up. Avoid asking questions that have already been answered iin the lessons or
in the instructions previously discussed or provided. Acts like these will reflect your
poor focus and uninspired preparation for this course. Practice Electronic
Conversation Etiquette in group chats, open forums, and similar electronic venues.
a. Use appropriate language and tone, correct grammar and spelling, and
complete sentences acceptable in an academic forum. Avoid text text-
speak, slang, and all caps in your posts.
b. Express your opinions politely and do not dominate the conversation.
c. Avoidd lengthy as well as offensive posts by sticking to the topic of the
discussion.
d. Take time to understand the salient points of the discussion, and provide a
well thought response to the posts of other participants.

e. For a live meeting or video/voice conferencing set-up,
set mute your
microphone when you are not speaking to keep the focus on the main
speaker.
3. MASTER THE MEDIUM. The distance learning courses will be delivered making use of
the institutional Google Suite account of Saint Louis University. It would be
worthwhile on your part to devote some time and effort to learn the applications

electronically.
lectronically. Work on this skill as well.
5. CONNECT CONSTANTLY. There are more than sufficient online and offline modes
to ensure that you are well informed and provided on time with the needed
learning materials, instructions, requirements, and feedback either from me oro
from your classmates. Exhaust all means possible to keep in touch and updated.
My contact details can be found at the latter part of this document and will be
made available and widely disseminated to enrolees of this course.
6. OBSERVE ORIGINALITY. Cite e your sources properly for referenced statements you
decide to use in your own work. Attribute statements by persons other than you
by using terms like according to, he said/she said, and the like.
7. INSTIGATE INDEPENDENCE. You are the focus of this course. Nobody else. All
assessment and evaluation tools in this course are designed to measure your
competence and not anybody else’s. You may use all resources at your disposal,
and ask other people for advice. In the end however,
however, it is going to be your
independent work that will be judged against the standards set for this course.
The only way for you to maximize this course to your advantage is to learn as
much from it as an individual. Make it count. Lastly, you are the learner; hence,
you do the module on your own. Your family members and friends at home will
support you but the activities must be done by you.
