Teachnig Method
I. Classroom Rules
(1.1) Class begins promptly at the beginning of the class period. It is advisable that students be in their seats
and ready to start participating in a class at that time.
(1.2) When the student has a question or comment, s/he needs to raise her/his hand first as a courtesy to her/his
classmates. Remember, questions are NOT an imposition – they are welcome. Asking questions will help the students
to learn more, questions also make the class more interesting.
II. Tardiness/ Absences
(2.1) I expect students' full attention for the entire class period. If the student knows that s/he will need to
leave before the class is over, s/he has to inform me before the start of the class, also s/he needs to try to sit
as close to the door as possible so as not to disrupt others. Similarly, if the student arrives in class late,
s/he needs to slip in as quietly as possible and takes the first available seat s/he comes to.
(2.2) If the student has an emergency or illness, s/he needs to contact me ahead of time to let me know that s/he
will be absent, s/he also must provide formal documentation that supports her/his claims. If the student misses a
class, it is s/he responsibility to contact me, outside of regular class time, to determine a plan to make up the
missed work.
III. Assignments & Quizzes
(3.1) Students have to complete and submit assignments/quizzes by the due date. Assignments/quizzes began in
class and are completed at home or home assignments/quizzes need to be submitted by students on the next class or
given due date.
(3.2) Failure to bring assignments/quizzes to class on the due date will result in a missing assignment grade.
When the assignment is submitted late the following week there will be a 5 point penalty deduction.
(3.3) Assignments/quizzes not received by the second week past the due date will receive a grade of zero. No
assignments will be accepted more than two weeks late.
IV. Do Not Use Mobile Phones During Class!
