Course Assessment:
As per standard grading system, thoroughly discussed during the orientation meeting;
Evaluative Measures
Quizzes, Activities, Oral Participation, Assignment and Projects……………………. 60%
Major/Long Exam……………………………………………………………………………………………. 40%
Aside from academic deficiency, other grounds for a failing grade are:
 Grave misconduct and/or cheating during examinations
 Unexcused absences of more than 20% of required number of meetings per term
 A falling academic standing and failure to take the final exam.
