Acknowledgement of Guidelines I understand that I must sit at a table or desk with bright overhead lighting and no backlighting, such as a bright window behind me. I understand that I will not receive credit for this exam if I do not use an external webcam with a view of the entire testing area, including a side view of face/eyes, keyboard, monitor/laptop, hands, and notes. See the image below. I understand that I must have handwritten notes when taking this exam, and without the required notes, I will face significant deductions in my exam grade. I understand that if I choose not to use study notes, I must prepare a single page with the word “NOTES” written on it to comply with this guideline. If I haven’t already, I can quickly get a sheet of paper to comply with this rule now. I understand I cannot use any other resources (notes, devices, etc.) besides these handwritten notes. I understand that I must keep my notes clearly visible to the camera at all times during the exam. I understand that it should be clear throughout the exam that I am not using any other notes/devices–my eyes must be on the screen or clearly on the required handwritten notes only. I understand that breaking exam guidelines may result in a zero or significant point deductions. To receive credit for this exam, I agree that I understand and will follow these guidelines.
