G. Classroom Policies
1. Attendance:
Since this is a 3-unit course, students are allowed at most 9 hours worth of cut. A late is
equivalent to a cut. Going beyond the said norm will automatically merit the student a final
grade of W. There is no distinction between an excused and unexcused absence.
The highly accelerated pace of this course requires students to accept a great deal of
responsibility for achieving their own learning outcomes. While in class, students are expected
to actively participate in discussions and group activities, and not just listen to lecture. Outside
class time, students are expected to spend hours of preparation which will include reading
assignments, homework preparations, research, and group meetings.
2. Classroom Behavior:
Mobile phones and any other use of gadgets (laptops, tablets, etc) are strictly discouraged
during class time. They are to be turned off or placed on silent mode.
Consultation Hours
Consultations can be arranged with your instructor. Consultations are highly encouraged!
