In a previous conversation (by zoom) I proposed to copy American universities. Then I looked up in google and saw that none has solved satisfactorily this problem. Cambridge has a system with an invigilator observing non-stop the examinee seated in front of the camera, but it requires lots of personnel, and they have to be paid.
Ten years ago I used to hold "open exams" that is, the question were real life problems and I wanted to test them as they would do in real life, like in an engineering office with a library. They were allowed to bring computers and textbooks to the exam, and propose solutions. The higher-ups forbid this practice. I still think that exams should reflect real life situations.
