I understand the "lesson" he's teaching them and also understand that open book tests should be harder.

Point is that he's tricking them. Or letting them trick themselves. That's not what a friend or trusted adult would do. That's what an adversary would do.

He has power over these kids in a big way and should be honest and up front about the reality of the situation.
