 The student is highly encouraged to obtain a free Microsoft 365 account for students 00 05.01.19 7 of 10

or some other available online platform for online classes that can be used for free if applicable.
 Students are highly encouraged to be present in all virtual class sessions. If the student cannot access said online class
sessions, the recorded session will be made available to the student through e-mail or by personal walk-in
appointment with the instructor if needed. They could also use the omputer premises inside the campus if
permitted.Regardless, the student is expected to keep up with the discussion.
 Taking of lecture notes is an integral role of every student as well as studying and participating in virtual classes.
 Students are given the chance to pass the assignments and seatworks a week after the virtual class. Non-submission
thereof are considered late and will not be accepted.
 For quizzes and exams, the students are given the chance to comply until the next class schedule. Non-submission
thereof are considered late and given a mark of zero.
 For PIT and other projects, the students can pass anytime before the end of the class semester. Failure to do so would
also mean a mark of zero.
 The instructor are allowed to create and/or adapt new policies as the need arises to accommodate the needs of the
students depending on current circumstances.
