What is the policy regarding cell phone usage during a WGU Objective Assessment?

The policy regarding cell phone usage during a WGU Objective Assessment allows cell phones to be visible but does not permit their use during the exam. This rule ensures that students are not distracted by their phones and maintains the integrity of the testing environment. Having phone visibility, while discouraging their use, helps ensure that students adhere to exam protocols and do not engage in any form of cheating or academic dishonesty.

By contrast, other choices suggest either unrestricted use or requirements that could detract from a focused assessment atmosphere, which is not aligned with WGU's commitment to maintaining a fair and secure testing environment.
