Makes you wonder what was said just before the video starts.
Well. If they were filming it, then they must have been doing something to try to get a better film. Although they said they filmed it to proove what he was normally like.
thats a long video for a phone. mine was only 10 seconds.
my government teach did something like this once. A kid was walking down the hall bringing something to a teacher while the pledge was going on. and she runs out in the hall and gives him detension for it. We defeintly skipped over learning about Barnette v. Board of Education. I got out of that class as soon as i could. You know a teacher doesnt know her stuff when she violate the precednet shes supposed to teach about.
I remember is 7th grade, someone was whistling during the pledge of allegiance. The teacher asked whoever was whistling to stand on his desk. he did, and was sent to the office. pretty funny memory.
What format is the video in? Media player won't play it :ehh:
I have media player 10. they might have used it. I saw it on the news a while ago. big time! woot look up an american newspaper, or cnn or nbc.com
Lots of good footage of the ceiling :)
Media player does :confused:
I can't get it to play :(
I had to download it to my desktop before it would play. For some reason it won't stream properly.

That school looks poor and ghetto...
Law or not .... if the teacher asks you to stand, you stand. If you don't you get punished. Simple case of respect for your elders, so why all the fuss :confused:
That guy deserves no respect
tough love
Yea but you gotta admit some teachers go over the top. I've had teachers in the past that have had a reputation for going nuts over nothing, just have a very lower temper and easily go on power trips.Quote:

Only if someone else makes them draw the line somewhere. If they have absolute control, they will get their way, as ridiculous as it may be.
Same in the service. Some drill sergents were over the top, but as long as they were fair, they were respected by most of their troops.
Same thing. Can't have everybody love you.
Yeah - he does seem a little insane. But you don't know what led up to it, if he is like that all the time then you are right, he doesn't deserve any respect.Quote:

Considering the pupil who took the video was suspended and the school have taken very little action that does suggest to me that, that is the case and given the way younger people treat each other and adults maybe a more heavy handed approach is required. :rolleyes:
that is wierd, because we get fox, ubc, nbc, exc... from NYC, even though i live in South Dakota, anyway we left it on the news one night, and they did a story on just that video.
my self, i think that that teacher did nothing wrong, he didnt hit anyone, just screamed alot. but you want to know the bad thing, that teacher will most likly never get a job as being a teacher again, beause of those kids that filmed that. his reputation is now rewened because of them. he may have been a really good teacher, but there was those 2-3 kids that didnt like him, now he is screwed. i think it is those kids that should get in trubble, not the teacher, for using a phone in scool. i dont know about there in NJ, but it is punishable by suspension, if you use a cell phone during class, and i agree with the rule.
this is absolutly discusting
it's against the rules to use a camera phone in a court room, or in a health club, but if the resolution was better, then I'd have some darn good pix. :cool:
I only got 10 second video clips
The article says that no action was taken against the teacher so i would say as far as the education world is conserned they think that is resonable action. You very statement however means you can understand that getting to that state is bad, and the excuse of they could have been disrespectful before just means he has trouble keping his patience.......Quote:

Austallian subsitute teachers - a disaster
