i wrote a thing.

we talk a LOT about academic integrity, in higher ed.

i think proctoring tools do more to undermine academic integrity - at the core level of student trust - than to protect it by catching 'cheaters.'

theconversation.com/online-exam-mo… these are surveillance tools. they cast students as suspicious from the jump.

"Testing/proctoring methods that invade privacy & erode trust end up undermining the very integrity that institutions demand students uphold.

Academic integrity matters. But integrity works both ways"
