The teacher Mr. Watson handing the tests back


Does it bug anyone else when he is passing out tests, he is giving the reactions to each test before he gives it to the student. that is totally uncalled for and unprofessional! I would have reported him if I were in that class. All Alexia getting a D+ obviously isn't good but there is a TON lot worse grades that HS students get on tests.

Teachers tend to do that when they know students aren't trying their hardest. They're hoping for the potential embarrassment to spring the lazy kids into action.

haha I thought the same thing! I know it is just a movie and this probably wouldn't be done in schools today but it was kinda rude!

Teachers cant do anything without being dictating.

I thought this thread was going to be about how he only passes the tests back to only one row, lol.

I agree.

I think it's fine for him to say "Good job" to those students who did well; nothing wrong with praise. But for the students who did poorly, you can't embarrass them that way.
