Through the Looking Glass: How Smart Wearables Will Transform Test Security and Assessment
Description

Smart glasses may be the next great exam security threat….or the next great assessment revolution? Today's wearables can record content, connect candidates to AI assistants, translate conversations in real time, and enable remote coaching. But what if the same technology that can be used to cheat could also transform testing for the better? Join us as we explore how smart glasses and AI-enabled wearables are reshaping test security. Learn how these devices can facilitate sophisticated cheating while also strengthening authentication, detecting suspicious behavior, and providing richer evidence of candidate performance. We'll also look beyond traditional exams. Could future wearables continuously observe, listen, communicate, and assess skills in real-world environments, generating far more data than a two-hour test ever could? The future of assessment may not be coming, it may already be here. Are we ready for it?
