However, you are allowed to use Microsoft Excel for conducting calculations and
applications that assist with the drawing of diagrams.
• A reference list is included on the final page of this document. Do NOT follow/visit the
sources during the examination; if you do, that will be considered dishonest conduct. I
included the reference list to merely acknowledge the sources that inspired the case.

they will be considered to have violated Unisa’s examination rules and their marks will be
withheld. For examinations which use the IRIS invigilator system, IRIS must be recording
throughout the duration of the examination until the submission of the examinations scripts.

dishonesty.
12. Listening to audio (music) and making use of audio-to-text software is strictly

will be a transgression of Unisa’s examination rules and the student's marks will be
withheld.

examination time. Students who experience technical challenges should report the

(refer to the Get help during the examinations by contacting the Student
Communication Service Centre [unisa.ac.za]) within 30 minutes. Queries received
after 30 minutes of the official examination duration time will not be responded to.
Submissions made after the official examination time will be rejected according to
the examination regulations and will not be marked. Only communication received
from your myLife account will be considered.
