Reducing Online Proctoring Discrimination Is Possible With AI

From not being able to validate the <a href="https://www.theverge.com/2021/4/8/22374386/proctorio-racial-bias-issues-opencv-facial-detection-schools-tests-remote-learning" target="_blank" id="">faces of people of color</a> to <a href="https://www.rosalyn.ai/blog/online-test-administration-software-cheating-prevention-and-student-dignity-ros" target="_blank" id="">flagging potential cheating</a> because a mother responded to her child during an online exam, problems with remote invigilation abound. But, it doesn’t have to be this way—better engineering and an equity mindset point to solutions. When we say “discrimination,” we are talking about bias. There is the potential for conscious or unconscious biases of the developers in any automated system to encode bias into that system.  In the remote proctoring world, these biases may result in people with darker skin not recognized by the system. Students who are neurodivergent with ADHD or Tourette’s may have their symptoms flagged as suspicious behavior. Students working on older computers or low bandwidth connections may be prevented from taking an exam. Remote proctoring discrimination is especially pernicious in AI systems because there is no way to root it out by examining the source code. The source code is an amalgamation of data and algorithms inscrutable to human beings without the proper development methodology.Developers of online proctoring systems can do a lot to minimize bias in online proctoring systemsand ensure that all students are treated fairly when artificial intelligence systems monitor their test sessions.
