RSO Proctor Training Practice Test

Online proctoring aims to keep the testing environment controlled by blocking devices that could access outside resources or enable communication. Prohibited items typically include personal devices not authorized (phones, smartwatches, tablets if not allowed), second monitors, and USB drives. These cover a broad range of cheating possibilities: a phone or smartwatch could relay information or receive messages, a supplemental tablet could browse the web or run apps, an extra screen could display unauthorized content, and a USB drive could store or transfer exam materials. While some exams may restrict specific tools like internet-enabled calculators, the policy most often centers on these broad categories of devices, which is why this option represents the standard prohibitions.
