Academic Continuity Plan Summary
1. The University intends to conclude the 2019-2020 Semester II by dividing the
academic instructions into two phases:
A. Phase I - Online Phase
B. Phase II - Face-to-face Phase
C. Alternative Plan
A. Phase I – Online Phase
The Online phase will cover a period of seven weeks. The first week will be for
faculty preparation and initial training. The remaining six weeks will be used for
instructional purposes. To ensure that learning takes place and is documented during
this period, the Online Phase would be divided into at least three parts, each with its
set of objectives. Questions related to each part will be sent to students. Questions for
all parts could be sent at one time. However, students would be required to respond to
question in the part under consideration and return them by the designated times. The
faculty will correct the student submissions with appropriate comments and return
them to the student in a timely manner. These questions could be used as final
evaluation for the semester.
Questions could be sent to students through email, text messages, or other electronic
platforms.
B. Phase II Face-to-Face Phase
The Face-to-Face Phase will cover a period of four weeks including one week of final
exams. During this period, faculty would review and continue the evaluation of
students as appropriate.
C. Alternative Plan
In the event that the State of the Nation has not returned to normal, the alternative
plan is to complete Phase I over an eleven-week period with the first week used for
faculty preparation and initial training.
2. Start Time
Phase I of the Academic Continuity Plan is scheduled to begin on Monday, June 15,
2020 and extend for seven weeks. Phase two will begin one week after the
completion of Phase I to allow students to return to campus. In the event that the State
of the Nation has not returned to normal, Phase I will continue as specified without a
break.
Each Unit of the University is in readiness to address unit-specific challenges such as
thesis, laboratories, student teaching, and professional development.
