Being a qualified invigilator is easier said than done. Want to do this job well, you need to spend physical strength and mental power, which is no less labor-saving than taking two classes. However, if you don't want to do this job well, you can take invigilation as a break.
The invigilator is the law enforcer in the examination room and the appraiser of whether the examination implementation is true or not. This responsibility is both glorious and significant. If the law enforcers violate the law, the impact will be far greater than the individual violation of the law by the candidates.
The invigilation is entrusted to you by society, schools and students. Invigilation is a fair name. Fair and just invigilation brings good school spirit and discipline, and reflects the true level of candidates.
The invigilator can reflect the invigilator's working attitude, professional accomplishment and professional ethics.
The highest state of invigilation is to let candidates enter the examination state and have no distractions.
Invigilation is not to catch more cheating candidates, but to make the whole examination room free of cheating candidates.
I always think that the more cheating candidates are caught in the examination room, the more dereliction of duty the invigilator will be. Why wait until fraud is discovered and stopped? Why not nip in the bud?
Remember, there is no fraud that goes undetected. As long as the invigilator is careful, all fraud can be found and stopped.
To be a qualified invigilator, we must first arrive at the examination place on time. Generally, there will be a brief pre-test work meeting before the exam, and then the test papers will be distributed and entered the examination room, so the invigilator will arrive half an hour in advance. Some invigilators have no consciousness of arriving early at all. They think that as long as they walk into the examination room before the exam bell rings, they are on time, which is completely wrong.
Secondly, invigilators should work together and understand each other. The law of one stop, one seat and one tandem is scientific. Some invigilators just don't follow this rule, which is very casual. If they want, they want to sit together and chat. In tandem, there should be no dead ends and blind spots in the whole examination room. One station and one sitting can make boring people stand and have a rest for a while. However, there are rules for standing and sitting. Generally, you sit in the front and stand in the back, because there is a podium in front, and sitting on the stool on the podium can control the overall situation. The invigilator at the back should stand, which can give candidates a high-pressure situation and prevent blind spots in their horizons.
Thirdly, we should master the pace of invigilation and the examination situation of candidates. Generally speaking, candidates who have nothing to do within 30 minutes of the exam are usually students who don't study. In order to pass the time, these students often sleep in the examination room, or their eyes are glazed, or they fiddle with everything that can be fiddled with on the desktop. Candidates who stop to look around within 30 minutes to 1 hour are mostly students who wander around for about 50 minutes. After they answered a small part of what they knew, they began to look for opportunities to answer the rest. These candidates have the strongest desire to copy, because copying one question less means failing. Students who stop answering questions in the last 30 minutes are generally good students. They have worked hard to finish the paper and are ready to check and submit it. However, at this time, they all aimed at her (him), or winked, or gestured, and the request for help in passing the cheat sheet may have been on their heads before the exam. When I was a student myself, what I hated most was that my classmates tried to copy my test paper. I didn't show it to them for fear of offending them, but I really didn't want to show it to them, so I especially hoped that the teacher would be strict in invigilation so that I wouldn't have to pass on the answers to my classmates. Therefore, the invigilator severely criticizes those candidates who deliberately put the test paper or answer sheet aside for others to copy. The harsher you criticize, the happier a good student will be, because then he or she can make excuses for those students who want to copy papers.
The final paper submission is the most confusing link in the invigilation process. At this time, the invigilator must accept it alone, and one person controls the whole examination room. The way of handing in papers can be decided according to the situation. If no candidates hand in their papers in advance, after the bell rings, all candidates must be asked to stand up, stop answering questions, buckle the front of the papers on the table, and then leave the examination room. The invigilator should not rush to collect the examination papers at this time, but should urge the candidates to leave the examination room and closely observe whether any candidates take the examination papers out of the examination room or continue to answer questions. If you are allowed to hand in the papers in advance, it is best for the candidates to send the papers to the front desk themselves and then leave the examination room. Don't let the examinee leave the examination paper on the desktop, in case it is peeked by other examinees or blown to the ground by the wind.
