Student films teacher berating classmate

Will teachers now have to bear with the added stress of having to account for their behaviour towards students -- who could be filming them?

Such an incident occured in a junior college in Singapore where a student reportedly used a camera phone to film a teacher berating a classmate for a poorly written paper, and tearing up the student's work.

There are several issues in the debate — the teacher's outburst, the student's behaviour in putting the incident on film and finally, his use of the Internet to air the case for further discussion, according to Channel News Asia.
