Ask yourself whether each of these statements are True Or False. I did a complete and thorough Environmental Scan that would make Dr. P proud. I am not wearing a smartwatch. (Though Dr. P may not be very tech savvy, his kids showed him plenty of pictures of smart watches they wanted when they were younger, so he knows what they look like.) I have powered my cell phone off. There aren’t any resources in the exam area. I am going to focus on my screen and my screen alone and not look around at any distractions that will cause Dr. Patterson to wonder what I am looking at and then to spend time questioning whether I am acting with integrity or not. All statements should be TRUE. If any of these statements are False, go ahead and make them all TRUE right now, and Dr. P will not take off any points. If, on the other hand, there is a false statement, and he sees it after this question, I will have violated the exam policy and I will have earned a 0 for the exam. This question will only count against you, if you mark it FALSE. So, Are the statements TRUE or FALSE?
