REMOVAL SCHEDULE & REMINDERS

Posted on: April 5, 2018 10:06pm

Hi,

Regarding removals, the list of students who will be taking the exam will be posted next week.

For those who did not join the field trip, your removals schedule is on April 12, 2018. Those who joined the field trip will have their removals on the Exam period.

Don't forget to submit the photocopy of your permits from prelim to finals and the official receipt for those who joined the field trip.

CHANGES ON REMOVALS CONDITION

Posted on: March 22, 2018 9:32am

Upon checking your grades I noticed that only few students will make it to the cut for removals so... through careful evaluation I decided to change the requirements for the Removals from two LE's with score 50 or higher into:

"A student must have at least two LE's with score 40 or higher."

FIELDTRIP GRADE INCENTIVES

Posted on: March 20, 2018 12:30pm

As per the academic coordinator's advise, those students who'll be joining the field trip are entitled with the ff incentives on AMA's Regular Grading System:

• 100% on Lecture Quizzes 1 and 2
• 50% on Lecture Final Exam

Since we're following a different grading formula, students will still obtain the ff. remarks on a different form but with the same value that matches our calculation. Final grade is calculated as:

Final Grade = 50% Lecture + 50% Exam

Since incentive is only applicable on Lecture, we'll have to use:

Lecture = 50% Exam + 40% Quiz + 10% CS

On the standard AMA Grading System formula, total Incentive is 65% of Finals Lecture Grade, which is equivalent to 32.5% of Total Finals Grade (65% * 50% Lec).

So for all students who are taking my subject regardless if blended applicable or not, everyone who'll be joining the field trip will obtain an additional 32.5% on LE3.

Should you have questions or concerns, please feel free to send me an email.

Best regards,

CLASS SCHEDULE CONFUSION

Posted on: January 24, 2018 8:16pm

I heard that the class schedule reflecting in your COR differs from my CS312 plotting. Please be guided that the correct class schedule for CS312 is TTh 1:00 - 2:30 Rm. 401 . I will also talk to Dean about this issue.
