Project Abstract

In the world of education, tackling cheating is a constant struggle, especially with the rise of online learning and exams. The usual ways of keeping an eye out for cheating just aren?��t cutting it anymore. That?��s where this study comes in ?�� we?��re looking into whether social robots could step in as exam invigilators and help keep things fair. Imagine robots that can spot cheating and react in real-time, making exams more trustworthy. Our project involves creating a system for these robots to do their job, studying how people respond to them during exams, and tweaking the system based on what we learn. We?��ve dug into lots of research about why students cheat and how technology can help in education. Our goal? To show that social robots really can make a difference in keeping exams honest. But it?��s not just about exams ?�� if this works, it could change how exams are done all over the world and spark new ideas for teaching with technology. By using advanced robots and smart ideas, we?��re aiming to make education fairer and more inclusive while keeping standards high.
