deliver learning interventions in a teaching-learning environment using a combination of the
synchronous and asynchronous procedures.

 Synchronous learning refers to a learning procedure that is supported by media such as video
conferencing and chat where real time facilitated sessions take place. The ability of learners to
actively participate in a simulated live online discussion is enhanced.

 Asynchronous learning refers to a learning procedure that allows learners respond to learning
requirements without having to comply to real time log in to sessions. This further allows learners
ample time to accomplish tasks on a self-paced learning mode.

upholding high ethical standards. Acts of cheating, plagiarism, inappropriate use of technology, or
any other kind of unethical behavior, may subject the student to necessary academic disciplinary
measures and penalties including dismissal.
2. All work required for submission for purposes of evaluation in a course, including journals, tests,
term papers, position papers, must represent only the work of the student unless certain
indications like pertaining to group or dyadic activity is otherwise stipulated.
3. Materials cited and/or taken from the work of others, and used as reference and literary
supplement must be acknowledged. Particular materials submitted to fulfill requirements in one
course may not be submitted in another course without prior approval of the instructor(s). It is a
thrust that students be encouraged to practice ingenuity in producing outputs.

be present for the full class period. Absenteeism and tardiness, regardless of cause, are a threat

the class period. The student is also subject to appropriate consequences if a test, quiz, recitation,

granted an excused absence. Excused absences may be granted to students who participate in
extra-curricular activities, however, due process is observed.
