What does it indicate when the NEXT button is greyed out on the student testing screen?

When the NEXT button is greyed out on the student testing screen, it indicates that the student has already hit record. This functionality is designed to prevent the student from inadvertently moving on to the next question or section without confirming the current response. It emphasizes the importance of reviewing their recorded answer before proceeding further. This feature helps ensure that students take the time they need to consider their responses and reduces the risk of submitting incomplete or unintended answers.

Being aware of this functionality ensures that students are attentive to their input, providing a more accurate representation of their understanding and skills within the assessment framework.
