i agree with you tobby

I'm sorry but I think it's a terrible idea! Here's my reasoning for it...

well first of all, I don''t necessarliy want to know what goes on every single minute in my child's class. I'm happy that my children are out in the schools learning what they are suppose to learn.
Secondly, it's a intrusion of privacy for children who are not yours! What if some other parent wants to "watch" your child??! How would that make you feel??
Also, would you like to put a camera in your house so the teacher can watch you?? A teacher also faces all kinds of students coming from all walks of lives. I feel that a classroom is a teacher's house and we should let her have her privacy. She is not out there to get our children! I agree that she should have nothing to hide, but that think about parents who are constantly scrutinizing these teachers, and have a hard time letting their children go. With those cameras, those parents might just get tempted to stay online forever just to find faults!

Yes, having a video camera is a great idea to have at a daycare center. That's a completely different scenario! Just my opinion.

This will be great in every elementary, middle and high schools.

Thank you for your comment, you are right, there is nothing to fear in having a live camera in every classroom if you are a teacher, unless there is something else going on. Parents will be happy to know and see that their children are in a safe admosphere and also be able to know if their children are learning or having difficulties. There will be protection for the student as well as for the teacher.

i think having cameras in classrooms is a great idea it will help the teachers think before they do anything. it will protect both teacher and studemt. At the school that I currently work at we have cameras in the class room an I know that I am not doing anything wrong so it dosen't bother me one bit, except when I want to eat a quick snack you know what i mean!

Any comments on this?
