3. Course Requirements
• Attendance
University rules on attendance and dropping will be strictly implemented.
[UPD Faculty Manual 11.9, Art. 346 of University Code 1961]

When the number of hours lost by absence of a student reaches 20% of the hours* of recitation,
lecture, laboratory, or any other scheduled work in one (1) subject, s/he shall be dropped from
the subject. However, a faculty member may prescribe a longer attendance requirement to meet
special needs. If the majority of the absences are excused, a student shall not be given a grade of
“5”upon being thus dropped (often referred to as “forced dropped”); but if the majority of the
absences are not excused, the student shall be given a grade of “5”upon being thus dropped.
Time lost by late enrolment shall be considered time lost by absence.

* 20% of 45 hours of ES 101 lecture sessions OR 20% of 45 hours of laboratory class sessions. With the class schedules this semester,
this corresponds to 6 absences from lecture sessions OR 6 absences from laboratory sessions being exceeded.

A student is considered absent from the whole session if he/she arrives late by 30 minutes from the
official start of the lecture class or laboratory class. Students must attend both the lab and lecture
sections in which they are officially enlisted.

Mobile phones should be set to silent mode during lecture and laboratory classes. Use of mobile
phones and similar gadgets may be allowed following the specific instructions of the class handler
(e.g., answering online quiz/surveys).

• Requirements
Students will be evaluated based on their performance in:
▪ Class Work (Lecture and/or Laboratory Activities) and Homework (CW_HW);
▪ Six (6) Comprehensive Quizzes (Laboratory CQ)
▪ Four (4) Long Examinations (LE); and
▪ Final Examination (FE).

Class Work (CW)

Class work, mostly in Laboratory and sometimes in Lecture class, involves guided and timed
exercises; these may include homework.

Comprehensive Quiz (CQ)

Quizzes include individual problem-solving in Laboratory class (computation, discussion and
recitation). Except the first quiz that is diagnostic in nature, All CQ’s are given as scheduled in the
laboratory class. No make-up CQ for missed CQ will be given in this course. All missed CQ will be given
a grade of zero.

Answer sheets for the CQ’s will be provided by the laboratory handler. Use only black or blue ink pen.
Solutions written in pencil or friction pen, or with correction fluid/tape will NOT be considered for
rechecking. Write solutions only on the front side of the answer sheet. Solutions written at the back,
if any, will NOT be considered for grading. Only the questionnaire/answer sheet, pen and calculators
are allowed on your desk during the CQ. Mobile phones should be set to silent mode and should not
be used during CQ.

Long Examinations (LE)

Page 12 of 15
ES 101 Syllabus 14JAN2020
There are four departmental long exams in this course. Each long exam is composed of 3 parts. The
form of the long exam is problem solving, possibly with multiple choice type questions on concepts or
problem solving that involves simple solution.
A student who missed a long exam due to an acceptable valid reason may take a scheduled make-up
exam corresponding to the long exam missed. When a student missed a long examination, s/he must
inform immediately, within four (4) calendar days including the day of the long exam, the laboratory
handler in writing (at least via email using only the @up.edu.ph addresses of student and teacher, or
via UVLe message) with proper documentation of acceptable valid reason for missing a long exam.
The validity of the excuse will be determined solely by the course instructors.
Make-up exam for the corresponding long exam should be taken as soon as possible. The default
schedule is within 7 days after the missed regular exam. Schedule of the make-up exam will be
coordinated by the instructors and announced to the concerned student/s only. If the student does
not take the make-up exam for whatever reason, s/he will be given a grade of ZERO.
Acceptable valid reason for missing the long exam is one of the following:
1. due to sickness
2. due to death of an immediate family member
3. due to emergency cases

No make-up examination shall be given to students whose reason is due to prior engagements or
travels.

Every student may be allowed to make-up for only one LE that has a valid excuse. All other missed
LEs, whether excused or unexcused, will be given a grade of ZERO.

Below are additional instructions/policies pertaining to long exams:

At the start of the semester:
• At the beginning of the semester, submit all blank answer sheets properly marked and stapled
together at the upper left corner STRICTLY according to the detailed instructions by the
laboratory instructor. Use at least three A4 (210 x 297 mm) white paper as answer sheets. Late
submission of answer sheets will result in a 5% deduction in the LE grade for which the answer
sheets were submitted late.
• Only your student number, section, exam number, and page number (e.g., page 1 of 10) shall
be written on every submitted answer sheet, all at the upper right corner for ALL four sets of
answer sheets. Do NOT write your name on the answer sheets.
Deadline of submission of ALL FOUR SETS of answer sheets: January 21, 2020 (laboratory class hours)
During Long Examinations:
• Use only black or blue ink pen. Solutions written in pencil or friction pen, or with correction fluid/tape will
NOT be considered for rechecking.
• Write solutions only on one side of the answer sheet and start each part of the exam on a new sheet.
Solutions written at the back, if any, will NOT be considered for grading. Solutions to two or more problems
in a Long Exam written in a common sheet will result in a 5% deduction in the grade for the said LE.
• Only the questionnaire, your answer sheet, pen and calculators are allowed on your desk during the
examination. Mobile phones should be set to silent mode and should not be used during examinations.
After Long Examinations:
Graded long examination papers will be returned during laboratory class not more than two weeks
after the long examination. Complaints/queries concerning grading the long examination will be
entertained only within a week after the results are returned. The exam papers will be returned to the
students at the start of the class, and should be returned to the laboratory instructor before the end
of the class. The student may take photo of the answer sheets when necessary. The student must
write down any and all complaints/queries in an email addressed to his/her laboratory instructor
(using only the @up.edu.ph addresses of student and teacher). A copy of the photo of the answer

Page 13 of 15
ES 101 Syllabus 14JAN2020
sheet should be attached to the email. The decision/action on the complaint concerning grading will
be made available to the student 5 calendar days after the complaint was submitted in order.
Final Examination (FE)
The departmental final exam covers all topics in this course. It may comprise 40 to 50 items of
multiple-choice type questions or four to six problem-solving questions, or a combination of some of
these.
Grading System:
Pre-final Grade = 0.72 x (LE Ave) + 0.18 x (CQ Ave) + 0.10 x (CW_HW Ave)
Final Grade = 0.70 x (Pre-final Grade) + 0.30 x (Final Exam)

Exemption from the Final Exam

A student with at least 72% in the Pre-final Grade and at least 60% in each Long Exam, may be
exempted from taking the Final Exam, in which case his/her Pre-final Grade as computed above shall
be the Final Grade, to be commuted to the ES 101 grading scale. A mark of “4.0” will not be applicable
to this course.
