The level three clinical evaluation forms will be used to determine the students pass or fail performance for this course. Failure to complete Clinical Homework Assignments will result in Failure of the Clinical. The Student Calendar will list when all Theory and Clinical Assignments will be due. The evaluation form will be posted on Blackboard. If you are enrolled in the Face-to-Face Course, your Assigned Clinical Instructor will be the individual who you will submit the Leadership/Management Interview Paper and your Assigned Clinical Instructor will also be the individual who will review and grade your Leadership/Management Interview Paper. The Clinical Instructor will communicate to the Theory Instructor the Grade that he/she has assigned and that will be what is posted. Testing Test Chapters will be published in the course syllabi for the students at the beginning of each term. Test dates are found within the Student Calendar. Exam blueprints may be provided by the instructor prior to each exam. The Online Students will continue to use Proctor Secure as the secure mode for testing or Live Proctor (Dr. Moore) for make-up Exams. Students are required to follow the mandates as identified by Proctor Secure as this is a security camera that videos the student during testing which is then sent to the Dean of Nursing if questionable behaviors are videoed. Refer to the Student Calendar for testing dates. The Exams will only be offered one time (will be opened at 8:15 pm CST and will close at 9:45 pm CST). Student is to follow the Student Calendar for the dates when the various Unit Exams and Final Exam will be administered. If the Student fails to take the Online Exam at the time it is offered, the Student will take an alternate paper test at the next Clinical Weekend on the Sunday after all students have been dismissed. The Alternate (Make-up) Test will be between 10 to 20 Questions in length and will be questions that may require answers of: Listing, Short answer, Matching, Multiple Choice / Multiple Selection. There will be no Blue Print for Alternate (make-up) Tests but the content will come from the same chapters of the Online Exams (Marquis & Huston Textbook and LaCharity Delegation Book). If the Student does not log onto the Final Online Exam at date/time being administered, the Student may place him/herself in a situation whereby he/she will have to arrange to make an additional trip to San Antonio to take a paper-pencil make-up Final Exam which will have to be taken prior to the current academic Quarter closing out. Again the Final Makeup Exam will not be the same Exam as the Online Final and will be similar question profile as the Unit Makeup Exams (10 to 20 Questions in length and will be questions that may require answers of: Listing, Short answer, Matching, Multiple Choice / Multiple Selection. Due to multiple occurrences whereby Students in the past have not been taking exam(s) when the exam(s) have been assigned, it was decided that the above was the best option to deter students from negating academic responsibilities. Online Students are permitted to have only 1 make-up exam occurrence; thereafter, the Exam Grade assigned will be 0 (ZERO) for missed online Exams (this also includes the Final Exam). It is your responsibility to ensure your Remote Secure Proctor Device is functioning appropriately. It is also your responsibility as an Adult Learner to view your Student Calendar as well as check your Blackboard Course Announcements at least twice a day, once in the early morning and then prior to you going to bed at night in case there have been changes. Online Students will receive the Exam Grade once the Student submits the Exam. No reviews of Exams are permitted by students due to having to maintain Test Security. The Face-to-Face Students may have either a computer-generated or a paper-version of the Unit Exam and will utilize the appropriate Scantron Sheet to complete the Unit Exam if the Exam is the paper-version. Refer to the Student Calendar for specific times which the Exams will be open if the Exam is administered as a computer-generated Exam (online students). The Face-to-Face Student Calendar will be provided to the Students in class on the first day. The on-line Student Calendar will be posted on the Blackboard Course Site. In the event a faculty must change a test date, they will notify the students as soon as possible. If the student must miss an exam, they must notify the faculty that they will not be present for the exam and schedule a date for the make-up exam within one week of the date of the exam. Make-up Tests (Face-to-Face Students) For Face to Face Students, occasionally a student will miss a test that is scheduled for a class. A student should contact his/her instructor to arrange for the Make-up Exam. Test must be completed within one week from date of missed exam. The Make-up Test may not follow the Test Blue-Print, but will be over content covered for the specific chapters covered for the Unit of Content. Class Attendance 1. The student must attend the class (es) for which he/she is enrolled. 2. A student enrolled at Wayland Baptist University should make every effort to attend all class meetings. All absences must be explained to the satisfaction of the instructor, who will decide whether the omitted work can be made up. If enrolled in the online course weekly online participation to include appropriate academic construction of Discussion Postings is required. Refer to the Discussion Posting Rubric that is contained within this Syllabus. 3. A face-to-face student who misses twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the regularly scheduled class meetings will receive a grade of “F” for that class. An online Student not engaging in the weekly discussions will be considered Absent and thus more than 2 weeks absent of online engagement would be considered a failure for the online course 4. When a student reaches a number of absences considered by the instructor to be excessive, the instructor will so advise the student and file an Unsatisfactory Progress Report at the San Antonio Campus. Clinical Attendance & Attire Attendance to clinical is mandatory. This is the opportunity for the student to learn and practice skills in the Skills Lab and discussed in didactic then apply them in a leadership role or in patient care. Any student missing a clinical must call in to the instructor prior to the scheduled clinical. Clinical cannot be made up; therefore attendance is critical to successfully complete required clinical objectives. There is no acceptable reason for missing clinical. Solid white professional uniforms and shoes are required. No Scrubs. School patches must be attached to uniform tops and lab coats. Patch must be purchased at WBU bookstore. WAYLAND BAPTIST UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF NURSING Note from the Dean SUBJECT: Medication Math Exam 1. A medication math exam will be administered to all students in EACH COURSE that contains a clinical component. Exception: The math exam in Fundamentals is a math assessment exam and will be given by the Fundamentals clinical faculty in a face to face proctored environment. 2. It is highly recommended that the student completes a thorough review of the ATI tutorials (Dosage Calculations and Pharmacology Made Easy Modules-all sections) appropriate to your learning needs during the week between terms, or sooner, so that you are ready to take the exam at the beginning of the new term. 3. Each student must pass the exam with a minimum score of 100. 4. Three (3) attempts will be allowed. These 3 attempts must be completed by the end of the 3rd week of the course. (For the online courses all 3 attempts will be given during the first weekend of clinical) If the student is not successful in passing the exam with a score of 100 after 3 attempts they will fail the clinical portion of the course, and therefore will fail the course. Leadership Students should expect that the Dosage Test will span calculation problems from Quarter One (Fundamentals / Pharmacology); Quarter Two (Health Promotions / Health Assessment); Quarter Three (Adult I); Quarter Four (Maternal-Newborn / Mental Health); Quarter Five (Pediatrics); Quarter Six (Adult II – which also encompasses Critical Care Drip calculations). It is highly advised that the Student completes a thorough review of the ATI Tutorials (highly advised that the Student achieves a grade of 100 for all PostAssessments): Dosage Calculations and Pharmacology Made Easy Modules (all sections) prior to the first Clinical Weekend. Below, provides specifics as to what the Student should review prior coming to the first Clinical Weekend. Logging into ATI, the Student will click onto the Tutorial Section and will scroll down until finding: Dosage Calculation 2.0. You will want to complete the Dosage Calculation 2.0 first. You will note that there are 3 different selections: Dimensional Analysis; Desired over Have; and Ratio and Proportion. The Student is allowed to select the module here that he/she is comfortable with in performing calculations. Once the Student has selected - then insure that you successfully complete (with Post-Test Grades of 100 for each module) ALL COMPONENTS THAT FALL UNDER: Safe Dosage (COMPLETE ALL) Medication Administration (COMPLETE ALL) Oral Medications (COMPLETE ALL) Injectable Medications (COMPLETE ALL) Powdered Medications (COMPLETE ALL) Parenteral (IV) Medications (COMPLETE ALL) Dosages by Weight (COMPLETE ALL) Pediatric Medications (COMPLETE ALL) Critical Care Medications (COMPLETE ALL) Case Studies and Finals (COMPLETE ALL) Then the Student will also want to review and successfully complete the Module “Pharmacology Made Easy.” Again you will want to successfully complete (with Post-Test Grades of 100 for each module) ALL COMPONENTS THAT FALL UNDER: Introduction to pharmacology (COMPLETE ALL) The Neurological System (Part 1) (COMPLETE ALL) The Neurological System (Part 2) (COMPLETE ALL) The Musculoskeletal System (COMPLETE ALL) The Respiratory System (COMPLETE ALL) The Cardiovascular System(COMPLETE ALL) The Hematologic System (COMPLETE ALL) The Gastrointestinal System (COMPLETE ALL) The Reproductive and Genitourinary System (COMPLETE ALL) The Endocrine System (COMPLETE ALL) The Immune System (COMPLETE ALL) Pain and Inflammation (COMPLETE ALL) Infection (COMPLETE ALL) DocuCare (Electronic Charting) Activities based on a select Client where you are assigned within your Clinical Site will be required. (Specifics of the Charting will be discussed on the first Clinical Day). The Assigned Clinical Instructor will be responsible for reviewing the student’s DocuCare Charting. Clinical Behaviors Resulting in Failing Clinical failing behaviors are linked to the Texas Board of Nursing Standards of Professional Practice. Issues related to professional conduct, management of stress, clarification of course, clinical assignment, and/or professional role expectations, may warrant clinical warnings, contracts for remediation, or course failure. Clinical Failing Behaviors 1. Performance is unsafe. (failure to pass at least one of the ATI Dosage Calculation Proctored Test or at least 1 of the Dosage Calculation Quizzes) 2. Questionable decisions are often made. 3. Lacks insight into own behaviors and that of others. 4. Difficulty in adapting to new ideas/functions. 5.

ATI Virtual CAPSTONE Students are required to complete the 8 week ATI Virtual Capstone. This component is part of Clinical. It is a PASS / FAIL component of Clinical. Failure to Fully Participate EACH WEEK in the ATI Virtual Capstone will result in FAILURE OF THE LEADERSHIP AND MANAGEMENT CLINICAL Disability Statement Wayland Baptist University adheres to a policy of providing equal opportunity to students with disabilities. Disability is defined by the University as any condition that falls under the purview of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. Wayland will strive to achieve optimum opportunity for participation in the University experience for all students, regardless of their circumstance. The University encourages any student who has a disability, as defined by the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, to inform the University of any Special Requirements or needs by reporting these to the Dean of Students or the Vice President of Academic and Student Services. The University will strive to meet these needs in accordance with applicable federal guidelines and Christian ethical considerations. Student Conduct (This is a statement of conduct standards. It is enforced in conjunction with the Discipline Policy and Substance Abuse Policy found elsewhere in this handbook.) Wayland proudly adheres to high standards of intellectual, moral, ethical, and spiritual values. Convinced that selfdiscipline is more desirable than outside force and that the truly educated person must pursue what is right under all circumstances, Wayland entrusts each student with the solemn obligation of preserving these standards. However, in the light of revelation, reason, and the custom of the Christian community from which Wayland has sprung, certain practices are evaluated: 1. Personal integrity in keeping with New Testament standards is expected of all students. 2. Respect for the property, knowledge, and rights of other people must prevail. 3. The use or possession of alcoholic beverages and/or illegal drugs is forbidden. 4. Gambling, hazing, and the on-campus possession of firearms or deadly weapons are prohibited. BB Guns and Paint Ball Guns are also prohibited. 5. The use of tobacco by students is discouraged, though permitted in certain designated areas of the campus (at least 50 feet from the Alamo University Center Building). In consideration of the rights of others and the requirements of safety, such areas are designated. 6. Follow online etiquette rules whether you are an online student or a face-to-face student. Refer to this website: http://online.uwc.edu/technology/onletiquette.asp The authority of the University is exercised over all student groups or organizations bearing the name of the university, or any student enterprises to the extent necessary to safeguard the good name and well-being of Wayland. Specifically, each student is expected to conduct himself in such a manner as to uphold, not detract from, the good name of Wayland Baptist University. If one feels that he/she cannot subscribe to the moral and social practices of the University, he/she will find greater acceptance elsewhere.

SUBSTANTIAL: Messages should relate to the subject matter and provide information, opinions or questions about that subject matter. They may relate the subject matter to something personal, but they should remain academic in their focus. 2. CONCISE: Studies have shown that messages that are several screens long do not get many replies. To write an effective message, attempt to use a single screen if possible. Try to get the point and focus of your message across so that it is clear what you are saying. 3. PROVOCATIVE: The discussion board is an interactive medium. The more interaction there is between students the better. A good message is one that prompts others to reply or object. A focused and pointed message that produces replies from other learners in that class in moving the discussion forward is having an impact on the learning environment. 4. HERMENEUTICAL: The discussion board is a place where ideas are interpreted and language is explored. To be hermeneutical is to interpret. A good message should explore, explain, or expand on a concept or connection. The message should not simply state something, but rather expand upon an idea. 5. TIMELY: A good message appears in the context of similar messages in the message log. If you get on irregularly, your message will appeal late and out of context with what is currently happening on the board. Log on regularly and reply to messages in a timely fashion. 6. LOGICAL: A good message that is not a question should contain a logical argument. This means is should contain a clearly stated conclusion of thesis supported by premises, reason, evidence or grounds of belief. 7. GRAMMATICAL: A good, clear, concise message should be well-written and free of typos and sentence fragments and referenced appropriately using APA format. 8. Be Polite to others online.

With this particular Clinical Rotation, the Student actively rotates through the various nursing-type of responsibilities that exist within the realm of Nursing. Thus, all Students will rotate and function within the various assigned roles as the time allows. All Registered Nurses, no matter what level of education, will at some time have to function in all levels of patient care delivery. The following provides the Wayland Baptist Student with specific descriptions of the Leadership/Management Clinical Roles that will be assumed. Team Leader The Leadership/Management Clinical fosters the opportunity for the RN Student to experience various roles/responsibilities to include that of Team Leader. The Team Leader is responsible for ensuring that patient care has been render to all patients on the unit in a professional, safe and holistic fashion. It is the responsibility of the Team Leader to ensure that others under his/her direction complete assignments of care to the patients on the unit. The Team Leader will obtain the Report for the Residents from the Charge Nurse for the Unit and then provides a report to his/her individuals. The Team Leader ensures that the Vital Signs for all residents on the Unit are taken by 0800 am and that a copy of the Vital Signs are provided the Medication Nurses by 0800 am or if on a 3-11 shift, by 4:00 pm. The Team Leader ensures that the CNAs are getting the residents up for am hygiene to include baths, oral care and breakfast and that the beds have been made and that fresh Ice Water is supplied to all Residents or if you are on a 3-11 shift, ensure that evening hygiene and meals are attended to. It is key that the Team that you are managing functions like a fine tuned machine. Organization is key for all Team Members. It is the ultimate responsibility of the Team Leader to ensure all care has been rendered, but everyone has to work together for the completion of the care of all residents. The Team Leader will need to find out which residents receive their Bath as Resident Baths are on alternate days if working the day shift or if in the evening, what evening cares need to be accomplished for the residents. Residents may request an evening bath (PRN Bath) of which your CNAs will accommodate. During the shift, The Team Leader performs a 5 minute focused Assessment of each of the Residents on the Unit, greeting each resident. At the end of the Shift, the Team Leader will report off to the Charge Nurse. Medication Nurse Depending on the size of the Clinical Group, there will be 2 Medication Nurses who will work directly with the Instructor and will be responsible for medication administration to all residents on the Unit from 0700 am through 12:00 pm Medication timeframe if Dayshift (unless otherwise specified by the Clinical Instructor). If on 3-11 shift, the Medication Nurses will administer medication to all residents on the Unit that are scheduled 3:00 pm up thru the 9:00 pm Meds. These will include PO, Injections, peg tube, topical, optic, etc. The Medication Nurse should have with them at the Medication Cart, a current Drug Book. It is the responsibility of the Medication Nurse to know which resident has to take medications crushed or with thicken fluids. The Medication Nurse must have the morning/evening Vital Signs as he/she will need to record BP/HR depending on the medications. The afternoon medications may also require a set of vital signs – so even if we work a 3-11 shift, evening Vital Signs need to be obtained. As part of your Medication Administration, you must ensure that you perform the 3 Checks of the Medications and too, must remember the 7 Rights of Medication Administration. Also, you must ensure you identify your residents not only with his/her picture, but as well verbally and as an additional safe guard ensure with the Buena Vida Staff that this is the resident that you are preparing medications for. The Clinical Instructor will remain with the Medication Nurses at all times. No Medications will be set up or administered without the presence of the Nursing Instructor. Key to Medication administration is simply getting started with the administration as soon as possible. You are not permitted to interrupt a resident while they are eating a meal to administer medications. You are not allowed to administer medication in the common dining area as this violates the resident’s right to privacy. I will be with the Medication Nurses at the Medication Cart the entire time. If permitted by the Nursing Facility, the Medication Nurse (WBU Student) will be responsible for the Narcotic Count in the morning and then prior to signing off, will have to perform another Narcotic Count with the Unit/Hall Charge Nurse. This is the normal routine when the Students come in on the Day shift, the evening shift may be slightly different. Wound Care Nurse As the Wound Care Nurse, you are responsible for performing dressing changes to residents who require wound care. The Wound Care is typically found with the MARs, but in some facilities there is a separate Book that contains the residents on the Unit who require wound care. When the Wound Care Nurse is not performing Wound Care, this individual will be a third individual performing the CNA responsibilities. With Wound Care, it would be expected that the Team Leader would assist the Wound Care Nurse that way the Team Leader is able to describe the wound at the time that the T.L. reports off to the Charge Nurse prior to leaving the Nursing Home and as well when the Team Leader hands off the report to the New Student Team Leader. The Wound Care Nurse will sign off on the appropriate sections of the MARS which show where the wound care was performed as ordered. CNA The Rest of the Students will be assigned as CNAs. They deliver direct patient care to include obtaining the Vital Signs (BP, HR, Resp. Rate, and Temp); Accu-Checks prior to the Lunch-time meals (the Accu-checks need to be completed prior to 11:30 am and immediately reported to the Team Leader and as well to the Medication Nurses as they will be responsible for insulin administration depending on the result of the accu-checks); the bed baths, the shower baths, the dressing of the residents, the changing of the linens, the assisting of the resident to the restrooms as well as ambulation in general, the oral care, the peri-hygiene care with incontinence to include changing the adult briefs and the feeding of those residents who need help and assisting with meal tray delivery as well as restocking the linen cart, filling the ice chest and ensuring all residents have fresh ice water at their bedside. Most important the CNA updates the Team Leader of Changes, providing both the Team Leader and the Medication Nurses with vital signs and reporting changes and as well reporting completion of assigned tasks. One of the most important aspects that the CNA performs is the psycho-social engagement of the Residents. The Student CNAs need to follow up with the Buena Vida CNAs to determine specifics as it relates to the delivery of care to the residents and to find out which residents will be receiving shower baths for the particular day. The Wound Care Student Nurse assists the Students Assigned as CNAs when not performing wound care and too, the CNA Student(s) may need to assist the Wound Care Nurse in positioning the Resident in order to perform the wound care. Thus, in the morning upon arrival, The Student CNAs and the Student Wound Care Nurse should all be obtaining Vital Signs and assisting residents to the restroom and am care as needed prior to breakfast. The Plan will be to assign the following Roles; however, please note that adjustments to how Roles are assigned may occur due to the feasibility of current events taking place within the Clinical Setting. The Following are the Roles that may be assigned: Team Leader Medication Nurse Wound Care Nurse (when not doing Wound Care, you will be assisting the CNAs) CNA Post-Conference At the beginning of Post-Conference, The Student Team will discuss what went well and what could be improved. The goal in this Clinical Rotation is to improve the outcomes with each subsequent day at the Clinical site. After the Discussion, The Team Leader will then report to the New Team Leader, the Medication Nurses will report to the New Medication Nurses and the CNAs / Wound Care Nurse will report to the new counterparts. The Students will rotate into new Roles each clinical day. Make sure that you bring your Lap-top Computer with ear phones/ear buds, Care Planning Book, Lab Diagnostic Manual and any other Textbook that may be helpful in completion of the Clinical Homework Assignments as the Student will want to work on his/her Clinical Assignments in the evening hours at the place where they will be staying during the Clinical Weekend. Additionally, Simulation Lab Activities and/or Skills may be conducted in the Nursing Skills / Simulation Labs with the remainder of the Post-Conference Time allowing opportunity for the Student to log onto DocuCare and complete Charting based on the full Assessment that the Student performs at the Nursing Facility. Additionally, Students will log onto ATI and access and successfully complete the ATI Real Live Clinical Scenarios. Any additional time left, will be geared toward ATI Targeted Practice Tests (with Focused Review) or the ATI Tutorial Modules / Practice and Final Tests. All students need to bring ear phones / earbuds to be able to review ATI Remediation Content during all Post-Conference. Hand-Written Medication Cards All Students will be required to complete a total of 35 Hand-written Medication Cards and submitted prior to dismissal on Sunday (the first clinical weekend Students will be required to complete 15 Medication Cards; the second clinical weekend Students will be required to complete 10 (but will bring the 15 med cards completed at the first clinical weekend as well; with the third clinical weekend, Students will complete an additional 10 Medication Card (but will bring the 25 med cards from the previous clinical weekends). The template for the Medication Card will be available on the Blackboard Course Site. Consider creating the Medication Cards based on Classifications as this is an excellent method to organize your thoughts to assist you in preparing for the NCLEX Board Exam. ATI Real Live Clinical Scenarios Part of the Clinical Homework, will be the requirement of the Student to complete all of the ATI Real Live Med-Surg Clinical Scenarios. Students will be required to repeat testing on each Scenario until he/she has achieved a 100% (STRONG) as this speaks to the student’s ability of competent critical thinking within a virtual clinical situation. This part of the Clinical is a PASS/FAIL. Failure to complete all of the ATI Real Live Clinical Scenarios with a 100% will mean the Student is assigned a NO PASS for Clinical and subsequently will mean that the Student will not pass the Leadership Course. Students are to refer to the Student Calendar for Dates of when various ATI Real Live Clinical Scenarios are due. Concept Maps In addition, each Student will select one resident by which to develop the required Concept Map that is due on designated dates as per Student Calendar and will be submitted to your Assigned Clinical Instructor as per his/her instructions. For the Leadership Course, a minimum of 2 Concept Maps will be required. The Concept Map Template Form will be posted on Black Board Course site for you to access. To ensure that you have a thoroughly completed Clinical Assignment, an explanation of a Concept Map will be provided on the Blackboard Course Site under Clinical Assignments and Forms. ATI Virtual CAPSTONE (Note I have repeated this) Students are required to complete the 8 week ATI Virtual Capstone. This component is part of Clinical. It is a PASS / FAIL component of Clinical. Failure to Fully Participate EACH WEEK in the ATI Virtual Capstone will result in FAILURE OF THE LEADERSHIP AND MANAGEMENT CLINICAL Additional Ordering Information regarding NCLEX RN 10,000 Powered by Prep-U (This message comes from our Lippincott Representative - see below) Great to hear that you will be using NCLEX RN 10,000 powered by PrepU with your online Leadership class!

Standards: Examinations are important mechanisms for evaluation of student learning. The College of Nursing programs adhere to standards of academic integrity as articulated by the College of Nursing Honor Code and Wayland Baptist University Student Conduct Code. Cheating on examinations is contrary to both academic integrity standards and to ethical standards and constitutes reason for academic withdrawal and/or expulsion from the College or University. Review the Student Conduct Policy in the student handbook, available online at http://www.sa.wbu.edu/ Some courses in the College of Nursing use the Securexam Remote Proctor System. Securexam Remote Proctor contains a web‐camera, microphone and fingerprint reader. These devices identify the student and capture video and audio throughout the exam and upload it to SSI’s secure servers. This video will be used for the purpose of establishing if any suspicious activity occurred during the test. The video feed provides a 360 degree view of the exam environment and all video records are subject to review by faculty. The Remote Proctor system must be purchased through the WBU bookstore. The fee includes all charges for use of the Remote Proctor system for (1) year from date of purchase. Renewal service fees are charged every year after initial purchase. Process: The Remote Proctor system will be used with online examinations as instructed by course faculty members. Students are required to take online examinations using a Windows or Mac based computer that meets the minimum requirements as outlined in the instructions on the Software Secure installation page (http://www.remoteproctor.com/install). o Students are required to register their devices and establish identity following the procedures outlined in the Remote Proctor instructions. o Students are responsible for self‐testing the functionality of their units well in advance of all Remote Proctored exams in their courses, so that any troubleshooting that is required can be accomplished. A practice quiz for this purpose can be found in the course. Test Environment Requirements: The online testing environment should mimic the ‘in class’ testing environment, and must conform to the following: A quiet, secure, fully lighted room for the examination o No other people in the room o No pets in the room o No communicating with others by any means (with the exception of contact with the faculty member in an emergency) o No leaving the room o Clean desk or table with nothing except computer and remote proctor system on the desktop or tabletop including removal of all books, papers, notebooks or other materials, unless specifically permitted in written guidelines for a particular examination o No writing visible on desk or on walls o No music, videos, or TV playing o No use of headphones o No use of cell phone for any reason other than to contact support or your instructor o All other computer monitors must be powered off Have the Remote Proctor device correctly situated: o Within an arm’s reach at all times during an exam o On the opposite side of the keyboard as the computer mouse (if using one) o Parallel to the keyboard (not behind the screen, etc.) o Nothing covering the base or prism o Lighting must be “daylight” quality and overhead is preferred if at all possible. If overhead is not possible, the source should not be behind the student. All exam videos can/will be reviewed by the course faculty and the Program director.
