II.   Monitoring


                       a.  Lecture  halls  and  all  academic  teaching  venues  are  monitored  through

                          triangulation  protocol.  Cameras  for  video  recording,  teacher  feedback  and
                          auditing.  In  all  cases  where  attendance  is  reported  to  be  unsatisfactory  or

                          associated with unprofessional behavior, a written warning will be issued to the
                          relevant class group and the class representatives will be alerted.


                       b.  Teachers and instructors will monitor the personal attendance. The program will

                          endorse  other  monitoring  techniques  later  on  according  to  the  circumstances.
                          Electronic attendance monitoring system will be brought into operation with the

                          use of students' swipe cards or fingerprints at the relevant venues.


                       c.  If absence exceeds the bylaws limits, instructors and teachers will report it to the
                          course  coordinators  to  allow  for  alert  letters  in  a  suitable  time.  The  course

                          coordinator  will  notify  the  semester  coordinators  (academic  advisors)  who  will

                          issue the letter after studying the case.

                       d.  If  students  have  persistent  unexcused  absences,  individual  students  will  be

                          contacted  on  their  written  contact  details  and  will  be  required  to  discuss  their

                          attendance record with the course coordinator.

                       e.  If non-attendance was also associated with break of the conduct of the session as

                          in cases of absence of the student who has assignment or certain role in the small

                          group sessions, this will be managed in two ways, the first is attendance issue and
                          the second is break of professional conduct.


                       f.  If a student is detected as swiping in classmates or participating in 'swipe and go'

                          practices,  (or  come  to  register  the  attendance  and  go)  they  will  be  referred
                          immediately to  the semester coordinator where  its  issue will be discussed with

                          professional line and the curriculum coordinator.
