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.    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.  (Because even though Dr. P is old, he is not yet some doofus that can’t tell that my repeated glances to the same point off screen is concentration and not cheating.)    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?
