I find it hilarious you assume I can do all of the following just because I am rightly concerned about failing some of the most important exams of my life because of software which sounds extremely flawed: - Cancel my leave from work - Afford to wait for a refund for months (210 euro which I could barely afford in the first place) - Wait around for the next 4 months to hope COVID-19 magically disappears and we can go down to Dublin in our hundreds and potentially thousands in the same building

I'll be doing this for my exams, just putting my phone on my bookshelf behind me and recording, then just upload to the cloud and if I need them I'll be able to dig it up. It's inconvenient for sure but it's a sure way to excuse yourself if you're innocent.

Lallers96 wrote: » I think I need to clarify the language of my previous post. I should not have said the word "random" about this score that is tied to your eye movements or likelihood of fraud. I am still concerned that when I am staring down as I type, reading my legislation, and looking off into space to think that the software will determine a high score for me. I have read the entire email last night and I fully understand the process. At this stage I now have a red flag stuck on my exam, and it will be reviewed by an invigilator (for lack of a better word). At this stage then they have to guess if I am cheating or if I am actually just staring at my keyboard, reading my legislation, and staring off into space the odd time. My worry is what if they decide I am cheating, when I am not? This score is determined by a software with controversies surrounding it and I do not trust that as I am staring down at my keypad that it will not decide "oh he's cheating". Then the onus shifts onto me to defend myself when I have done nothing wrong. *How can I disprove this?* The answer is I can't because I do not have access to my recording, and I also cannot say anything other than "i was looking at my kepypad". As someone who has apparently invigilated these online exams before pointed out, it is easy to tell when someone is looking away to think, and if someone is cheating. How so? I stare at my keypad when I have to type furiously and I do not move my eyes away from it unless to check if my spelling is okay. My eyes will be focused solely down and moving left to right, and right to left. How can you confidently say that I am not reading off a page based on those eye movements, rather than what I actually am doing which is merely typing? You can't.

S. 4 Road Traffic Act 2011 – makes it a crime to drive a vehicle in a public place without due care and attention, and if such driving causes death or seriously bodily harm, the motorist is liable to a max punishment of 2 years imprisonment and a fine of €10,000. O’ Brien J. in AG v Quinlan defined “dangerous driving” as: “driving in a manner in which a reasonably prudent motorist, having regard to all the circumstances, would clearly recognise as involving direct and serious risk of harm to the public.”

Hazel774 wrote: » They're not failing people based off eye movements. It says the online software does not determine if a fraud has occurred. They risk scores are checked by a human and only reviewed if there's a significant concern. And even if there is concern over potential fraud a report will be complied and submitted to Edu Committee and you're given the opportunity to make comments prior to the referral to the education committee. Just don't try and cheat and then you'll have literally nothing to worry about.
