Dear MEL Topic Readers,
AI glasses are aiding cheating in exams. Test-obsessed Asia is ground
zero
Ever since students started using AI tools like ChatGPT for academic
writing, teachers have been struggling to find the right way for assessment. In
the meantime, high-tech wearable tools like AI glasses have been found at exam
sites in countries where test scores make or break the chance for college admissions
or job qualifications. As smartglasses’ appearances become more ordinary and their
functions improve rapidly, they are threatening the fairness and integrity of exams.
For example, if you just look at the exam paper through the glasses, they would
transmit the information, find the answers, and display them on the lenses. To
combat high-tech cheating, proctors of China’s national entrance exams manually
or digitally check frames for built-in cameras, internet connectivity, or AI
features. It seems to be the time for assessors to rethink how to evaluate the competence and potential of the test takers. Should humanoid robots take place for human proctors?
Read the article and learn how high-tech wearables are threatening the
testing authenticity.
