Invigilator-bot: The Proctoring Predicament
FO Take · Score 21

The Uttar Pradesh TET exam, monitored by AI, highlights a disturbing trend: education as surveillance.

How can we expect creativity when we are so focused on control?

The strongest counter

AI proctoring ensures exam integrity and reduces cheating, creating a level playing field for all candidates. It standardises the examination process, making it more efficient and fair.
