Yes Please! Every classroom needs to have a camera that provides a livestream that is accessible to the parents and administrators.
If nothing else, the lesson itself, including a live stream of the board, the teacher's computer, and a microphone at the front of the room should be available to parents and administrators at any time. This, along with pdf files of any worksheet, material, or assignment, along with any powerpoints or similar teaching documentation should be available online as well.
The kids themselves don't need to be recorded directly, but parents should at least be allowed first hand access to what their kids are actually being taught, not second-hand information that comes from kids after the fact, or from a teacher who knowingly misrepresents what they're teaching.
This might be restrictive on the teachers, but only if the teachers are attempting to deviate out of their purview. If they're doing their jobs and following the established curriculum, then it shouldn't be a problem. Teachers who do act out, though, need to be reprimanded and punished as is appropriate.
Obey big brother, for we have always been at war with Oceania.
Alright, so what's your suggestion for resolving the issue? A major part of the reason that we're in the state that we're currently in as a culture is as a result of the schools and teachers pushing their personal beliefs onto kids from a young age.
I am not saying to watch the kids, I'm saying to give the parents closure and understanding for what their kids are being taught in the first place by giving them access to the lesson material itself, as its being taught, not as the curriculum says that it should be taught.
Of course parents should be more pro-active in the education of their children, but that doesn't work when the parent and teacher are in conflict, and when the parent trusts the teacher to do right by their children in the first place.
