Project Summary

Online tests have been widely used to test students’ ability to teach knowledge in recent years, especially during the COVID-19 epidemic. However, it is challenging to do proctoring tests performed online due to lack of face-to-face interaction. Also, previous research has shown that online tests exist is at high risk for nu- serous duping methods, which can detriment their integrity. Specifically, this project detects suspected student by user verification, Head-Pose Analysis, Gaze Estimation, Person Counting, Active Window detection, Mobile Phone Detection, Multiple Monitor Detection.

Massive open online courses and other forms of remote education continue to increase in popularity and reach. The ability to efficiently proctor remote online examinations is an important limiting factor to the scalability of this next stage in education. Presently, human proctoring is the most common approach of evaluation, by either requiring the test taker to visit an examination center, or by monitoring them visually and acoustically during exams via a webcam. 

Project Objectives

• Monitor the test-taker's behavior: Since the requirement to
  perform tests includes receiving screen and video sharing, an online task manager using Al   monitors all actions and activity of the remote test-taker. Situations such as the applicant's face that is not visible or not visible at all, the presence of another person in the room, the constant disturbed movement, the presence of an unauthorized object, which are considered suspicious and often flagged off during the test process. Proctor has the authority to decide whether to mark the work involved such as cheating.
• Monitor screen of test-taker: Once the candidate's behavior is under supervision using quality video footage, proctors maintain the online proctored exam's sanctity by monitoring the candidate's on-screen activity. Indeed, some clever students try to trick proctors into making use of their rights to travel or to use online resources to cheat on the screen. proctors can keep themselves in step by using the amazing next-generation anti-cheating solution called Secure Exam Browser. Lock browser uses full screen on system. Therefore, a student cannot escape through a window or access any unauthorized application without permission.
• SCOPE and FEATURES:
• Head Pose Analysis
• Mobile Phone Detection
• Person Counting
• Active Window Detection
• Gaze Estimation
• User Verification
• Multiple Monitor Detection

• From those who provide an online state of the art, state of heart online authorization service to those who provide detailed student performance reporting re- ports, here are the 7 top industry software providers that provide secure and unbiased testing experience. Top 7 Test Proctoring Software Providers:

Project Implementation Method

For making this web based project Django is a Python language web framework that
encourages rapid and clean development. You can focus on writing your app in Django because it's open-source. Django(3.27) latest version will be used in this project.

We are going to use a set of modern tools. Our platform is based on web.

We are going to use a set of modern tools. Our platform is based on web, and we are going to use following tools:

• Python: Python is an open-source high-level programming
language. It is basically used for web development, game development, language development. It has a very huge developer community. Python(3.97) latest version will be used in this project.

• Django: Django is a Python language web framework that
encourages rapid and clean development. You can focus on writing your app in Django because it's open-source. Django(3.27) latest version will be used in this project.

• React: React is a front-end JavaScript library for building UI
components of websites. It is maintained by Facebook company. React(17) latest version will be used in this project.

• React Native: React Native is a free and open-source UI
software framework created by Facebook, Inc. It is used to develop applications by enabling developers to use the React framework along with native platform capabilities. React Native(0.60) latest version will be used in this project.

Benefits of the Project

Unlike traditional tests with proctoring on site, online tests have no face-to-face interaction. It brings trouble to online test demonstrations and various forms of cheating behavior can appear in online tests. For example, students can type questions in a browser and search for possible solutions from the Internet. They can also send messages to a third party (e.g Friends) asking for help using cell phones or computer chat apps. In online trials, it is not an easy task to identify such cheating behaviors. To make the proctoring work better, the online exams often ask students to use webcams to monitor and record their activities during the exams. However, it requires more staff and costs will be higher when many students go for an online exam. Fully automated proctoring aims to reduce the potential efforts of physicians by using machine learning techniques to analyze recorded video of students during online testing. It automatically detects suspected behavior and classifies them as cheaters or non-cheaters.
