3. Script and Storyboard
V. GRADING SYSTEM
For a student to pass the course, one should get a grade of 75% in his/her final grade, which is computed from the following:

A. TERM GRADE
Class Standing 60%
Quizzes 20%
Performance-based Outputs 40%
* Essay
* Hands-on Activities
* Long tests
Periodic Examination 40%
100%
B. SEMESTRAL GRADE
The Semestral Grade is obtained by getting the sum of the 33% of the Prelim Grade (PG), 33% of Midterm Grade (MG), and 34% of the Final Grade (FG) for the
course.

SG = (PG x 0.33) + (MG x 0.33) + (FG x 0.34)
