1. THE UNIVERSITY POLICY ON ATTENDANCE APPLIES. You are allowed to be absent for a maximum of 20% of the total time. Wherefore, for MATH 26 the lecturer drops a student with a combined number of absences of at least 5 in the lecture and recitation classes. Depending on whether the majority of incurred combined absences of the student were excused or unexcused, the lecturer will give the student a grade of DRP or 5.0, appropriately. 2. NO MAKE-UP for missed quizzes or exercises. In case you missed the Midsummer or the Post-summer exam, you are automatically required to take the final exam. Nevertheless, it is strongly encouraged that you should not miss these exams so that we can prevent problems that may arise related to your grade in the course. In case the absence is unexcused, the student automatically receives a score of 0 for the missed exam. 3. Any form of cheating during an examination will be severely punished. 4. Raise your hand if you have any question or clarification about the topic. If some questions still persist on your mind or you have any suggestion, write it in any paper and drop it to the Freedom Box located near the door. Also, feel free to come to my consultation hours or consult your recitation instructor regarding matters related to the course.
Some more rules 5. No one is allowed to eat, drink or smoke inside the lecture hall. 6. Avoid tardiness. (3 lates = 1 absence) 7. Give your recitation instructors due respect. Dont ever call them ATE or KUYA. MEMORIZE their names. 8. Refrain from using cellphones, game and audio-video devices, laptops and other gadgets during the class. Also, refrain from sleeping. Anyone who is caught sleeping inside the lecture hall will be advised to go out of the lecture hall to continue his/ her sleeping at home. The Lecture Component The lecture component shall be used by your lecturer to develop or introduce new topics. Examples shall be given to reinforce the definition, theorems or other concepts. You are encouraged to ask questions; however, you should use the microphone so that your lecturer your classmates can hear you. You also have an option to ask by righting your question/s on a sheet of paper and dropping it in the box designated to your recitation section. These boxes are located at the back of the lecture hall during lecture time, otherwise outside my office. Your lecturer shall assign a permanent seating arrangement. You must occupy your designated seat. Attendance in the lecture shall be checked by the lecture assistant based on the seating arrangement. The Recitation Component

The recitation class is used primarily to reinforce the lecture. Some activities that you should expect in this class are the following: exercises, discussion of assignments and additional examples, board works, group discussions/activities or recitation.
The Math 26 Section GH e-Group: You are required to be a member and visit this e-group regularly. Announcements, additional course materials, web resources and other related topics shall be posted by your lecturer in this site. Membership is required to be able to access the site resources and receive announcements. The site also includes a discussion board. You may post messages, questions or comments related to the lectures. Upon being member of the group, please immediately update your profile so that you can be recognized properly by your instructors. Please observe proper decorum in using this group. Introduce yourself and indicate the section you belong and to whom you want to speak to. Please choose your words when you communicate in this group. The Math Clinic You are encouraged to visit the Math Clinic (MB 104, Math Building). References, one-on-one tutorials and other teaching and learning materials are available at the clinic free of charge. Just approach any of the instructors or professors in the Math Clinic if you need any help. The Lecturer Name: Mr. Lauro L. Fontanil Designation: Instructor 1 Office: Room 204, Cubicle E, Math Building Consultation Hours: MT: 10-11 AM, 3-5 PM; ThF: 3-5 PM E-mail Address: lauro_06@yahoo.com Recitation Facilitators: Section G-1R G-2R G-3R G-4R G-5R Room MB 101 MB 103 MB 105 MB 106 a MB 106 b Facilitator EOJatulan LRZamora DSMLutero JLTEsguerra BSHernandez
Please ask your recitation instructors for their respective room number, consultation hours, house rules and other specific requirements.

Words of Encouragement: Ensuring success 1. Study everyday. Go over what was taken up in the lecture and recitation. 2. Dont let any topic pass you without ensuring full comprehension and understanding. Mathematics is a sequential course. i.e., the topics at a certain level depend on the topics in the lower level. Thus, mastery of lower level concepts is necessary. 3. Dont hesitate to get help whenever you need one. 4. Work in groups. In this way, you wont feel alone and neglected. You will be surprised how much emotional and intellectual support a group can provide. 5. Enjoy the power mathematics can put in your fingertips.
