Course Requirements: 1. Assignments 2. Quizzes 3. Major Exams 4. Facebook and Skype Account (account for class purposes only) 5. Term Paper Computation of Grades: Coursework will be weighted as follows: Class Participation Quizzes Assignments Attendance Term Paper Major Exam Total 15% 20% 15% 5% 20% 25% 100%

Final Grade = (Prelims + Midterms + Finals)/3

Class Participation
Class Participation will be graded according to his/her active participations on discussions.. On a particular issue or topic, the instructor will open up a discussion and then students who will participate will be graded according to his/her answer.

Quizzes
Quizzes will relate to current and previous topics. A quiz may be given at any time during any class period -- immediately after a lecture, at the beginning or end of a class, etc. There will be no make-up quizzes -- none even later during the same class period. Quizzes will be given only to those students who are present when the quizzes are passed out.

Assignments
Assignments will be graded according to its neatness and content.

Major Exams
Major Exams will be given according to the assigned schedule of the college. There will be no make-up exams -- none even later during the same class period. Anyone caught cheating during exams will automatically merit a grade of 5.

Attendance
Attendance will be graded as follows: No absences One absence Two absences Three absences Four or more absences Four consecutive absences 1 1.5 2 3 5 F.A.

Four or more absences will automatically merit a grade of 5. Absences for which a medical or court excuse is provided (professional letterhead required) will be recorded but not figured in the attendance grade. Likewise, one absence for which advance notice is given by phone or in person will not be figured in the attendance grade. Significant tardy and early departure will be marked as absent.

Term Paper
Term paper will be graded according to the content and results of the study. The format of the term paper will be the same as to a research paper, except that the scope of the study is only good for a single term (otherwise, the instructor or the panel will advise a more thorough study of the subject matter). The subject of the term paper must be relevant to the course and the program. This will be a group effort, meaning the grade of the paper will be the grade of all the members of the group. Each group is allowed of a maximum of 5 members.

*A portfolio that contains all the activities, e.g. quizzes, assignments, major exams, term paper within the semester is required to be submitted during final examinations. Failure to submit will automatically merit a grade of INC. The instructor will return the portfolio/s during the release of graded class cards.
