从纸笔考试向电子考试的转变引发了人们的担忧,即这是否会让作弊变得更容易。这篇文章调查了教师和学生在三种类型的笔试中对作弊易感性的差异:纸质考试、自带设备电子考试和使用大学自有设备的电子考试。它还调查了人们对针对这些考试类型作弊的一些典型对策的有效性的看法。研究采用了混合方法,问卷调查和对作者所在大学的师生的访谈相结合。共有212名学生和162名教师参加了问卷调查,然后对数量较有限的学生进行了访谈,以更深入地了解调查结果。研究考虑了六种不同的作弊行为--冒充、禁用艾滋病、偷窥、同伴合作、外部援助和师生勾结,并考虑了七种不同的应对措施--监考、生物测定、混合、洗牌、随机抽签、排序和广播。学生和老师都认为,在电子考试中作弊更容易,尤其是在自带设备的情况下。他们还认为,一些应对措施在电子考试中会更容易实施。
A concern that has been raised with the transition from pen and paper examinations to electronic examinations is whether this will make cheating easier. This article investigates how teachers and students perceive the differences in ease of cheating during three types of written examination: paper exams, bring your own device e-exams and e-exams using university-owned devices. It also investigates perceptions about the effectiveness of some typical countermeasures towards cheating across these examination types. A mixed-method approach was used, combining questionnaires and interviews with students and teachers in the authors' own university. A total of 212 students and 162 teachers participated in the questionnaire survey, and then, a more limited number were interviewed to get a deeper understanding of the results. Six-different cheating practices were considered - impersonation, forbidden aids, peeking, peer collaboration, outside assistance and student-staff collusion and seven different countermeasures were considered - proctors, biometry, mingling, shuffling, random drawing, sequencing and broadcasting. Both students and teachers perceived cheating as easier with e-exams, and especially with bring your own device. They also thought some countermeasures would be easier to implement with e-exams.
