Apple Watch causes trouble: Many universities prohibit wearing watches during exams

[[127723]]

Beijing time, February 9 morning news, according to BuzzFeed, because examiners can not distinguish between ordinary watches and smart watches, so some universities have banned students from wearing watches to take exams. This also indirectly reflects that Apple Watch may change the world again.

In fact, the University of London expressed concerns as early as last summer that Apple's smartwatches might affect exams, and now several universities have officially banned students from wearing watches to take exams.

London City University said it was the latest to join the industry, saying: "Questions were raised last year by peers and invigilators about how smart watches could be identified in exams. In an exam room with more than 100 people, it is not practical for invigilators to check all students' watches. We did some research in autumn 2014 and found that a number of universities had recently introduced similar policies."

For this reason, London Metropolitan University has already treated watches the same as mobile phones. The school had previously required students to put their mobile phones in a plastic bag under the table during exams. Now, watches will also enjoy the same "treatment": if a student wears a watch to take an exam, they must take it off and put it in a plastic bag under the table.

In order to reduce the inconvenience caused, the school has also increased the number of clocks in the examination rooms and even provided special desk clocks for students in need.
