There are many ridiculous things done by teachers who want to instil discipline in their students. In this part of the world, we understand the saying 'spare the rod, spoil the child' but then, some people go too far in dealing with students.
In this part of the world, teachers have weird ways of punishing students without necessarily beating them. For those who schooled in this part of the world, there are countless memories about the things done to them by teachers.
In line with this, a Chinese teacher seems to have gone way out of line with the steps he took in ensuring students did not cheat in an examination. He did not bother spacing them out like most teachers would; instead he had their heads covered in papers so that they will not be able to look at their mates' books.
Now this is a new dimension in ensuring students do not cheat; it is presumed to be a ridiculous approach too as these pictures have gained popularity on-line with people wondering what must have gone through the teacher's mind as he did this.
The action of this middle school teacher in east China has led to a serious controversy; it is almost impossible quelling the arguments that have been generated because of this.
Asking students to wear newspaper hats for an exam seems unfair to some while many think it is a measure that can be adopted.
What is your stake on this? Would you use this method for the students in your class as a teacher or would you advise teachers in our educational sector to adopt this kind of method in their classes?
