13. Other Course Policies

A. In Progress Conversion Policies, Standards, and Guidelines

THE GRADE OF IN PROGRESS (IP)

1. The grade of IP shall be given to student/s who has/have not attained the passing grade but not
INC nor NG. The IP mark shall be indicated in the Report of Grades submitted to the Registrar’s
Office. Student shall be given:
a. a maximum of one term for the conversion of his final grade to a passing mark.
b. learning modules on the lessons to be completed in asynchronous mode with consultation
with the faculty.
c. learning modules, schedule of consultation and assessments by the concerned faculty.
d. a grade of 2.75 if satisfactorily completed the requirement of the learning module.
2. If a student fails to satisfy the requirements, the student will be given a grade of 4.0 and re-enroll
the subject.
3. An IP mark in a prerequisite course should be converted before taking the course requiring it.

PROCEDURE FOR THE CONVERSION OF IP MARK

 1. On the date of submission of grades in the registrar, the faculty shall accomplish properly 2 copies
of IP conversion (IPC) form 1, one copy for the student and one copy for the Dean/Program
Head/Principal.
2. If the IP conversion has been approved by the Dean/Program Head/Principal the faculty shall
inform the concerned student.
3. The student shall receive the approved IPC form 1.
4. The student shall apply for the conversion of IP by accomplishing well the IP Conversion Form 2 and
submit it to the Dean’s/Program Heads’/Principal’s office.
5. The student shall receive the needed learning modules, schedule of consultation, and assessments.
6. Upon successful completion of requirements by the student for the conversion of IP grade to 2.75
mark, the faculty shall submit the passing grade of the student to the Dean’s office and Registrar’s
Office. A student who will fail to complete the requirements for 2.75 mark shall be given a grade of
4.0. and shall re-enroll the subject.
B. All students should understand, remember and actualize FCPC Vision, Mission and Core Values; and
their respective Program Educational Objectives and Program Outcomes.
C. Attendance
1. Regularity and punctuality in attending classes are expected of each student.
2. In article XIV, Section 73 of the Manual of Regulations for Private Schools (8 th edition), the
following provision is stated: “A student in every private school who incurs absences of more
than (20%) of the prescribed number of class or laboratory periods during the school year or
term should be given a failing grade and given no credit for the course or subject.
However, the school may adopt an attendance policy to govern absences of its pupils or students
who belong to the upper half of their respective classes.”
3. Any student who has accumulated more than the maximum number of absences tolerated in a
given subject disqualifies himself for earning any unit and causes himself to be dropped
automatically from the class.
4. Any student is considered late if he comes to class 15 minutes after the scheduled time.
5. A student who has not completed all academic requirements by the end of the last semester of
his curriculum year is not eligible for graduation and is not allowed to take part in the
commencement exercises for that year.

D. Submission of Assessments/Outputs
1. All subject assessments and outputs must be submitted on time. Considerations could only be
given if there had been proper communication between the instructor and the student prior to
the dates of submission.

3. turn on the video so that I can see and engage in all activities with my classmates and teachers
like we are in the same room despite the distance.
4. wear decent attire and maintain proper grooming.
5. keep my microphone muted to prevent background noise that may disrupt the speaker.
6. respect my teachers and my classmates. I use polite words in expressing my ideas and opinions.
7. listen attentively and take down important information.
8. wait for my turn to speak or unmute my microphone and ask questions.
9. participate actively in all class activities. I refrain from doing unrelated or unnecessary tasks
while the session is ongoing.
10. ask assistance from my parents/guardians in doing laboratory/hands-on activities when
needed.

position.

3. Students should use the NEO LMS in sending messages and concerns to the subject teachers.
4. Students have the right to express themselves and participate freely in an online class.

Offensive or inappropriate language is not to be used in any form of communication e.g.,
emails, discussion postings, group projects, submitted assignments.
5. The discussion area of the course is reserved for postings related to course work only. Postings
of a personal or nonacademic nature are not permitted and may be removed by the instructor
should they appear. Grades and personal issues should be handled by private email to the
teacher.
6. Emails to the teacher that are considered offensive or inappropriate will be sent back to the
writer with a request to rewrite and resubmit. If the emails continue to be unacceptable, the
student will be referred to the Program Head and denied access to the course until the Dean
contacts the student. If students receive inappropriate emails from others in the class they
should notify the teacher and appropriate action will be taken.
7. Students are expected to submit work which is their own. Plagiarism or cheating will not be
tolerated.
