Final Examination
 PART C
COURSE ASSESSMENT:
(Criteria for Grading)
Final Grades of the students will be based from knowledge and understanding of the course which will constitute fifty percent (50%) of
the final grade. The other fifty percent will be based from the Assessment Result (Evaluation of the course outcomes)
Knowledge and understanding will be evaluated according to the following:
1. Examinations (Check-Up Examination, Preliminary Examination, Mid-Term Examination, Semi-Final Examination, and
Final Examination);
2. Quizzes; and
4. Assignments
5. Including the laboratory activity and laboratory report if the course has a laboratory component.

The final course grade will be computed according to the following formula:
1. [(Knowledge and Understanding Result) x 0.50] + [Assessment Result] x 0.50;
2. The passing standard shall be the grade of 50% but the student must have attended at least eighty percent (80%) of the total
number of
required meeting of the course, and must have a rating of “Competent” in all the Assessment Result; and;
3. The table below shows a sample of the range of percentage marks and their corresponding equivalents.

COURSE POLICIES: (Requirements)
A. Attendance Procedure: Attendance will be taken at the beginning of each class using the CLASS CARD which is issued to
each student upon enrolment. Students are expected to attend every class. Students are responsible for all material covered during
any absence and assignments must be completed by the due date for credit. The absence of more than twenty percent of the
required number of meetings in lectures and/or laboratory will result in a “DROPPED” grade (DRP). Missed exams will require
proof of extenuating circumstances for any make-up consideration.
B. Absence due to Illness: If you are sick, DO NOT ATTEND THE CLASS. Contact the instructor by e-mail, telephone, or cell
phone to discuss how you will keep up with the coursework assignments and complete the Laboratory Experiments.
C. Methods of Instruction: Methods will include round-robin discussion and demonstrations that discuss key terms, concepts and
formulae of the assigned chapter. During the discussion, a quiz about the basic concepts of each chapter will be given. The
student is expected to read one chapter and solve the assigned problems each week. This will require an average of five hours of
study outside of the classroom each week. The previously assigned problems will be collected for grading and the solutions will
be derived in class. This process is designed to help the student thoroughly understand the concepts and applications of the
material covered.
D. Academic Honesty: All students are expected to behave with academic honesty. It is not academically honest, for example, to
misrepresent another person’s words or ideas as one’s own, to take credit for someone else’s work or ideas, to copy and paste
material from another document or from the internet, to accept help on a test or to obtain advanced information or confidential
test materials, or to act in a way that might harm another student’s chance for academic success. When the instructor believes
that a student has failed to maintain academic honesty, he or she may be given an “F” grade, either for the assignment, laboratory
report, quiz, examination, or the course depending upon the severity of the offense.
