When Web Sites Post Test Answers Online, Professors Worry

Thursday, July 10th, 2008

Several Web sites have emerged in recent years that encourage students to upload old exams to build a bank of test questions and answers that can be consulted by other students. But some professors have objected, many of them demanding that their tests be removed.

Demir A. Oral, a Web designer living in San Diego, said he started his online test collection, PostYourTest.com, because he felt that such materials were already available to some students but not others. “I know that fraternities and a lot of organizations have test banks, and I just didn’t think that was fair that some students got access to these things and some didn’t,” he said.
