"Denmark's Education System Cracks Down on AI Cheating: Oral Defenses and Screen Monitoring to Become Mandatory. In a bid to combat the growing threat of artificial intelligence (AI) cheating, the Danish government has announced a series of measures aimed at ensuring the integrity of high school exams. Starting next year, students aged 16 to 19 will be required to orally defend their written essays, a move designed to assess their understanding and critical thinking skills beyond mere written submissions.
