Notes for the module creator / teacher facilitator:

1. Each module is estimated to be at least 8 up to 10 pages in length inclusive of activities.


2. The module creator is expected to submit an editable document copy of each module,
assessment and lab activity for review before the module is printed and distributed to
students.
3. The module content must always cite all references used and the module creator’s name
shall be given due credit for compiling each course module.
4. Students should be instructed to submit each module activity portion before receiving the
next module in the course.
5. You may choose the most relevant topics from each chapter to match it to the Philippine
setting.
6. Please feel free to simplify the language used to make it easier for students to
understand as much as possible.
7. You may also simplify the presentation of the concepts. For example, thru the use of
tables for Module 2 even up to Modules 3 and 4. It might help make the topic easier for
students to organize.
8. Especially for M&P, because it is important for students to visualize the terms/concepts,
we encourage the use of links to selected online discussions to reinforce the topics.
9. Activities may also be based on the linked media.

We value your feedback. Please do not hesitate to let us know of your concern(s) regarding the
course subject or class / student group or individual. God bless!
