Please participate in the online discussions since this is an opportunity for you to clarify what you have
learned on your own not only with your facilitator but also with other members of the class. It is also a
good way to learn from one another. Depending on the size of the class, a tutor other than myself, may
facilitate online discussions.
Your contribution to the discussion boards will be graded. Your postings should answer the
discussion questions in a concise way and with as much insight and reflection as possible. There are
usually no right or wrong answers to the questions, only honest and well thought out ones. And please be
guided by the following marking scheme (middle values may be given).

HOUSE RULES
1. Participate on time and actively in each discussion date to maximize your learning.
3. Submit activity sheets on or before their due dates. You will be duly informed and reminded about
the deadline for each activity sheet. Late activity sheets will be accepted, provided there is a
valid reason for the delay. However, they cannot be awarded the highest possible score.
4. Activity sheets should be written in English. Be grammatical. Write as effectively as possible (i.e.,
with clarity and coherence, organization, as well as conciseness).
5. Do your activity sheet assignments yourself and observe the ethics of scholarship. You may discuss
your work with each other (for example during online study sessions or in a study group off
schedule).
If you “borrow” or use an idea from another source (meaning someone other than yourself), be sure
to cite that source (or sources). Enclose quoted material in quotation marks or use italics and write
the source. But as much as possible, paraphrase, do not lift. Be reminded that as per LSPU policy,
plagiarism can be grounds for suspension or expulsion.
Acknowledge sources and make a bibliography of them at the end of the assignment following APA
(American Psychological Association) guidelines. You can consult
http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/01/ for the APA formats.
6. Always keep a duplicate copy of your activity sheets in your files just in case you need to resubmit
them (e.g., they are lost in transit; or there is a technological glitch).
