随着COVID-19于2020年初蔓延，加拿大各省及地区实施封锁，导致实体专上校园关闭。大学迅速转向远程学习，教师们调整了他们的教学和评估方法，以适应虚拟环境。大概是为了帮助这个过程，一些机构获得了远程在线监考服务的许可证。本文探讨了围绕在线远程监考的研究，探讨了采用在线远程监考的理由，以及高等教育评估实践的当代研究。在整个论文中，我证明了缺乏研究，既说明了这种评估模式的有效性，又承认了考试环境的变化，以及学生焦虑的增加。我认为，在线远程监考不仅是嵌入在新自由主义和文化，但支持继续依赖于测试文化。它的结论与评估文化的讨论，提供了一些替代的评估方法，可能会破坏非常需要在线远程监考。

As COVID-19 spread in early 2020, a lockdown was implemented across Canadian provinces andterritories, resulting in the shuttering of physical post-secondary campuses. Universities quicklypivoted to remote learning, and faculty members adjusted their instructional and assessmentapproaches to align with virtual environments. Presumably to aid with this process, a number ofinstitutions acquired licenses to remote online proctoring services. This paper examines theresearch around online remote proctoring, examining the justification offered for the adoption ofonline remote proctoring, and contemporary research on assessment practices in higher education.Throughout the paper, I demonstrate a lack of research that speaks to the efficacy of this mode ofassessment while also acknowledging shifts in the testing environment, and an increase in studentanxiety. I argue that online remote proctoring is not only embedded within neoliberalism and auditculture, but supports a continued reliance on testing culture. It concludes with a discussion ofassessment culture, offering some alternative assessment approaches that might disrupt the veryneed for online remote proctoring.
