While I was lucky enough to not need Examity during my undergrad at one of the universities in this article, I heard many complaints from my peers about it, and everyone echoes the view that it increases test anxiety FAR more than an in-person, in-classroom test. I have even heard of friends getting "flagged" for having pets in the room. If the proctor hears background noise, or if you move your head "suspiciously" to one side, you might be accused of cheating.

I know it's a difficult problem to solve, but I think instructors should focus on creating assessments that don't need to be proctored. Maybe focus more on essays, practical applications, or projects? Examity in some ways strikes me as a crutch for teachers who don't want to put in the effort to adjust their assessments to a new environment.
