As more colleges and school districts prepare to resume remote instruction for the fall, educators may worry how to prevent cheating when assignments and exams are held online. The people who know how to cheat know how to sell it,” she said.
Rather than spending most of my time time helping people become better online teachers, I have been figuring out how to meet two competing objectives: increase online course offerings and avoid adopting an online proctoring system. Thoughts about online proctoring have been taking up more of my time and energy than I’d like to admit.
