Banning watches from exams to prevent cheating

英国学校禁止学生戴手表考试以防作弊

The most common form of cheating is trying to use a mobile phone to get extra help. But this inquiry has warned of another growing high tech problem; pupils connecting to the internet through their watches.

最常见的作弊形式是试图使用手机来获得额外的帮助。但这项调查提醒人们应注意另一个日益严重的“高科技”问题——学生们在考试时通过手表上网。

Such smart watches are already banned in exams, but inquiry chairman Sir John Dunford said that invigilators struggle to tell the difference between a conventional watch and an online version, and so a blanket ban was needed.

这种能上网的智能手表已经被禁止在考试中使用，但是此次调查的主席，约翰·邓福德爵士表示，监考人员很难区分传统手表和智能手表，因此有必要全面禁止所有手表被带入考场。

The Joint Council for Qualifications, representing the exam boards, said such a complete ban on watches could be in place by next summer.

代表考试委员会的英国资格认证联合委员会（Joint Council for Qualifications）表示，对手表的全面禁令应该在明年夏天之前出台。
