o Ensure your face is always fully visible.
o If you need to make notes on paper, show both sides of
the blank sheet to the camera and state,
"This blank sheet is for making notes." o Before
taking a bathroom break, look at the camera and say, "I am
taking a bathroom break; I’ll be back now."
• Do not write this exam at your workplace; you should be on
study leave.
• Do not use your work PC, as permission levels might block
IRIS.
• Write this exam in a quiet venue. If you are not alone, ask not
to be disturbed during the exam.
• Do not wear earphones or air pods!
• Do not use your smartphone or a secondary laptop/PC.
• If you need to scan a document as part of your solutions,
ensure the scanning is done in full view of the camera.
• While you may use Microsoft Excel for calculations, you
must start with a blank sheet and are not permitted to
prepopulate worksheets with formulas.
• In the case Examination Chronicles: Project Six Eyes, real-
life entities and experiences (e.g., an institution like UNISA),
are blended with fiction. Except for Dr Emil, all characters in
the narratives are either fictional or pseudonymised – no
identification with actual persons (living or deceased) is
intended or should be inferred.
• In-text citations and a reference list is included in this
document. Do NOT follow/visit the sources during the
examination; if you do, that will be considered dishonest
conduct. I included the references to merely acknowledge the
sources that inspired the case.
• Please read the additional student instructions below.
