Background of the study
With the growing demand for remote learning and online education, the need for secure and reliable methods of conducting remote examinations has become more critical. Online exams, while offering flexibility and convenience, have raised concerns regarding academic dishonesty, such as cheating and plagiarism. Remote proctoring systems use technology to monitor students during online exams, ensuring integrity and fairness in the assessment process (Ibrahim & Shuaibu, 2023).
Usmanu Danfodiyo University in Sokoto has increasingly adopted online learning, but the challenge of ensuring exam integrity remains a significant issue. A remote examination proctoring system could provide the university with an effective tool to conduct secure online exams while ensuring that students are assessed fairly. This study aims to design and implement a remote examination proctoring system that utilizes various monitoring techniques such as video surveillance, screen monitoring, and AI-based behavior analysis to detect any form of academic misconduct.
