However, later during the exam her cell phone begins to vibrate and an obnoxious "One Direction" ringtone sounds from the phone. What penalty should the student face? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) Turn this issue into your administrator since this is a testing infraction. This irregularity will be turned in a decision will be made. I'm sure if all the student's exams are invalidated, then the social consequences will be high. If her test is invalidated then those consequences will be high. If no testing consequences occur, and you have good administration, the issue will be handled.
