CLASSROOM POLICIES
(All the provision of the college shall apply.)

1. An online classroom is still a classroom.

2. Success in this course is dependent on the students’ active participation and engagement throughout the course. As such, students
are required to complete all deliverables and actively participate in online class discussions. If a student is unable to attend,
participate in, or complete an assignment on time, it is the student’s responsibility to inform the instructor.
3. Attendance: Students are expected to log on at least twice a week on different days in order to complete assignments, assessment
and other weekly deliverables as directed by the instructor and outlined in the syllabus.
4. Academic Honesty: Plagiarism and Violating the Rules of an Assignment: The program expects that students abide by the highest
standards of intellectual honesty in all academic work. Furthermore, the program assumes that all students do their own work and
credit all work or thought by others.
5. Avoid using acronyms such as LOL (laugh out loud) and TTYL (talk to you later) since not all users are as familiar with these
abbreviations. Spell things out to avoid confusion and misunderstandings.
6. Courtesy goes a long way in any setting, including online school classrooms. Online courtesy would mean:
Students should use their real names.
Know how to raise “virtual hands” and wait to be recognized when responding to a question or comment.
Do not forget to say “please” and “thank you.”
Address the teacher and other virtual school students in a respectful manner, even when disagreeing.
Avoid using all uppercase letters; this is often considered the equivalent of shouting.
Cameras should always be turned on and make sure the microphone is turned off.

NATIONAL SERVICE TRAINING PROGRAM SUBJECT CODE: NSTP 2 SUBJECT TITLE: Civic Welfare Training Service

 7. Before an online session begins, eliminate environmental distractions that may divert your attention away from the class. This
includes: finding a conducive and comfortable place in the house, minimizing background noise by turning off the TV and radio,
turning off cell phones. (No multitasking during class!)
8. It is important that virtual school students be prepared before class! They should download any necessary software and connect
and test devices like microphones or video cameras before the lesson begins. Students should also exit other applications on their
computers prior to launching the classroom software.

9. Pay close attention on the classroom conversation and activities. You may take notes on the information presented and ask relevant
questions to clarify the material covered or assignments given. Do not join sideline chats with classmates when the teacher is
speaking.
10. If you’re confused or stuck on an assignment, your first instinct may be to immediately ask a question. But before you ask, take the
time to try to figure it out on your own.
11. Adhere to the proper file format when submitting your online work.

Student’s Acknowledgement

I have received and read the course syllabus in NSTP 1- CWTS. I understand that I have to comply with the requirements of the course and the expectations
of me as a student in the said course during the First/Second Semester S.Y. 2024-2025 as these have been discussed also by our instructor. I am fully aware of the
consequence of non-compliance with the above-mentioned requirements.
