Thai Students Caught Cheating With "Mission Impossible" Spy Glasses by olempe(m): 9:23am On May 12, 2016 |
Three Thai students caught cheating during a medical college entrance exams made headlines this week for their elaborate high-tech cheating equipment. Supervisors discovered wireless cameras embedded in the frames of the students’ glasses which were connected to smartwatches on their wrists. They used the cameras to send images of questions to an external group, who then replied with the answers via the smartwatches. That’s quite a clever setup, but sadly, the students were caught when instructors noticed that their glasses had unusually thick frames and decided to have a closer look, which led to the discovery of the hidden cameras. The story went viral on social media after Rangsit University director Arthit Ourairat posted pictures of the cheating equipment on his Facebook page. “They did it in real-time,” Arthit wrote, adding that the students had spent a whopping 800,000 baht ($22,700) on the setup. “This was the most high-tech exam cheating system I’ve ever seen. We want this to be known in public to make people aware that we must be careful, particularly for medical exams where there is high demand among students but not many vacancies.” Most social media users condemned the students for their actions and accused them of putting people’s lives at risk. “If they had passed and graduated, we might have had illegal doctors working for us,” a Facebook user wrote. But a few actually praised the students for their ingenuity, with comments like “Cool,” and “Like Hollywood or Mission Impossible.” There’s no denying that the students’ plan was clever, but their intelligence actually backfired on them – they were blacklisted by the examination board and disqualified from gaining admission at the university. Their identities have been withheld, but the scandal is likely to have a negative effect on their future careers. The entrance exam, which was held last weekend, was taken by over 3,000 students competing for only 130 spots. It has now been cancelled, and students will need to show up for a re-test on May 31 and June 1, during which all accessories will be banned.One might assume that the elaborate ploy was thought up in response to bizarre anti-cheating methods used in Thailand, like these goofy anti-cheating hats made from sheets of paper.

Cheating get levels I must say.. While some people will be looking for their palms and laps to write potential answers, some others are going over the board with high tech setup for the same purpose.. I for say they tried, but unfortunately, they were caught. |

Do Nigerian lecturers even know what Google glass is all about? I won't be surprised if some students have been using the developers edition of Google glass and our invigilators won't even have the slightest idea. |

It really beats my imagination how/why people use their brilliance to do bad stuff. Well, they are still adolescents, since they are about having tertiary education. We can excuse their behaviour and blame it on "youthful exuberance". |
