What will happen if the student will

not attend synchronous classes?

Will it affect his/her grade?

The class attendance will not affect the grade or any

components in an online set-up. However, the
student will be missing class discussions and
activities which are essential in the learning process.

The adviser and subject teachers should always
encourage students to (actively) join the class.

Should parents be informed when a

student is absent in class?

Yes. The class adviser should communicate with the
parents and find out why the student is absent. In the
same way, the student and his/her parents should have

the initiative to inform the class adviser the reason for
this. Communication may be done via text message,

phone call, or email. The homeroom adviser should check
the e-SAMS at the end of the day to identify those

students who were absent in each class. In the same
way, the subject teachers should ensure that the e-

SAMS is updated every day.
