Exam Cheating Devices

The Uttar Pradesh police say they arrested at least 21 people from different districts on Sunday for allegedly helping examinees cheat through Bluetooth devices during a recruitment drive for 'Lekhpals' in the state revenue department.

Five people have been arrested for trying to cheat in an important exam for selecting teachers for government schools in Rajasthan. The candidates were found wearing "chappals" with Bluetooth devices fitted inside the sole, officials have said.

To police examinations in the current online scenario, we ask students to write answers on paper sheets while keeping a mobile phone or a laptop camera focused on them so that the proctor can see them working. Sometimes, we ask them to work on one device and use the camera of a second device to display the live video.

A Singaporean tutor has pleaded guilty to helping six Chinese students cheat in school exams in a "highly sophisticated" operation using video calling and skin-coloured earphones, court documents seen by Reuters on Wednesday showed.

Over the years, students have used wireless cheating devices disguised as erasers, belts and watches.

Chinese students sat the annual make-or-break university entrance exams today, with officials deploying drones or high-tech radio surveillance trucks at schools across the country to try and curb increasingly sophisticated cheating methods.
