School in India Uses Cardboard Boxes to Prevent Cheating
A school in India is facing backlash over an anti-cheating experiment involving cardboard boxes. Students at Bhagat Pre-University College were invited to bring in their own boxes to wear on their heads while taking an exam. The school said that parents were informed and students were not required to participate in the anti-cheating trial. When photos of the test takers were shared over social media, the school agreed to put an end to the experiment. Cheating is a major problem in many schools in India where students are often pressured to receive top marks in order to gain entrance to university. Other efforts to prevent cheating in India have included installing cameras, hiring police officers to monitor examination rooms, and requiring the removal of socks and shoes.
印度的一所学校正因为一项涉及纸板箱的反作弊试验而遭到强烈反对。巴哈哥特大学预科学院的受邀学生可以带他们自己的盒子,在参加考试时戴在头上。学校说,在家长知情的情况下,学生没被要求参加反作弊试验。当应试者的照片在社交媒体上分享时,学校这才同意终止试验。作弊是印度许多学校的一个主要问题,为了考上大学,学生们常常迫于压力,需要在考试中得高分。在印度,防止作弊的其他措施包括安装摄像头、雇佣警察监控考场,以及要求脱下袜子和鞋子。
