Study Guides
The success in finishing this module lies in your hands. As Marian Angel, there is a need for you to consider this mode of learning for it will offer new avenues of development. You are expected to accomplish the module wholeheartedly. As you go through this module, your progress will be monitored by your assigned instructor and feedbacks will be provided as well. For better understanding on what you should do, below are sort of reminders for your guidance.
1. You need to have ample time in reading and understanding the thorough content of the module. If there is a need to re-read it for better comprehension, by all means do it so.
2. There is a need for you to manage your time wisely taking into considerations your other modules from your other subjects/courses. Be aware on your given schedules per subjects so that you will be accomplishing your tasks on time. To avoid confusions or delays, do not ask questions which are answered in the study guide. In short, read first the entirety of the study guide for your guidance and for better compliance.
3. If in case you do not understand what is stated in your learning module, re-read. Spend enough time in understanding the task/s and be resourceful. You may seek the help of your family members but do not let them do the task/s for you. Remember, you are the enrolled student and not them.
4. What you can do today, do it today and not tomorrow or any other day. As a Marian Angel, you should learn the value of time and learning toward the path of professionalism. The assigned schedule per subject will be announced and you need to follow it religiously.
5. Always believe that you can. Read the instructions given in every task before you start answering. Do not settle for mediocrity; aim for excellence.
6. In every task/step you do in accomplishing the assigned module per subject, you need to make sure that you did not miss anything. You have to double-check your answers before submitting them.
7. Your answers must be based on the given instructions per tasks. Do not deviate from the instructions. You need to follow what is stated and try to re-read the instructions if confusions arise. If in case there are queries which you think must be put into consideration, you may put your message on the “comment box” in our Moodle Application so that your assigned instructor will respond to you and others who do have the same concern will be enlighten as well.
8. Lastly, always do your best and be reminded that integrity is doing the right thing even no one is watching.
