Professors who don't make their own tests...

When I attended an associate degree nursing program, it was common knowledge that the instructors used test questions that came from a massive test bank provided by the publishers of the textbooks.

Many instructors do not write their own tests, especially adjunct faculty (a.k.a. academic sharecroppers). These professors are often told what to teach, when to teach, and are furnished with the textbooks and accompanying test banks to use.

Writing valid, effective test questions is a specialized skill that many instructors don't have. All textbook publishers provide "test banks" with the faculty editions of textbooks, that provide test questions constructed by academics who are trained and experienced in writing "good" test questions. The point of this is to spare students from having to take tests full of "bad" questions. Not only are they made readily available to faculty, some schools require that faculty use the professionally prepared test banks to construct tests, and don't allow instructors to write their own tests.

There is no question of "plagiarism" here. It's a common, standard practice in academia. What exactly is it about this that you think is not "fair"?

The main problem with this is that she says she makes her own tests. I forgot to add that above.

Okay. So you've proven she does not devise her own exams if the answers can be located on the world wide web. There is really nothing you can do about this situation.

She does "make her own tests." She chooses the questions she includes on the test. That's considered "mak(ing) her own tests." She just doesn't write the individual questions herself, and there's nothing unusual or underhanded about that.

Many professors use test banks to get their questions for exams
