  "account": "Four instances of academic misconduct involving AI glasses were uncovered at middle and high schools across South Korea this year, according to the education ministry. Between October 27 and November 8, schools nationwide reported three high school students and one middle school student using the devices during midterm or final exams. The culprits were detected in Seoul, North Jeolla Province, and Jeju Island. Three of the four offenders were caught fidgeting with their glasses, while the fourth was identified after a peer alerted a proctor. Each student received a zero on the affected exam and faced disciplinary consequences, including community service and suspension. The education ministry plans to educate students about the issue and work with regional offices and the Korea Institute for Curriculum and Evaluation to prevent future misuse of AI glasses. In a related development, stricter penalties for cheating during the upcoming college entrance exam will be imposed, including up to three years in prison and a ban from taking the test for three years.",
