I don't like writing exams. I'd rather study and answer them :D I have written quizzes for different purposes when I was in high school (lazy teachers!) and the most frustrating part is making problem solving questions - it really stretches out my creativity!
Thanks for the response on my discussion!

I love creating exams, but they are a difficult thing to do so I generally create a set that I can use again and again. I don't think most students realize just what goes into a test to make it fair. Most tests need to address all of the learning styles, as well as content set up according to Blooms Taxonomy. Then there is the selecting of questions that address the various levels of ability within the content area, and the double checking of the exam. Tests fall into various areas such as norm-referenced or criterion-referenced.
I think it's why most of us use what someone else has created so we don't have to test the test's validity or reliability.
