Ustreamed class rooms

I just watch a radio show on Ustream (ELITEDCRADIO) while surfing my timeline which is full of parents and educators. My random thoughts are hit or miss but I think I'm on to something with this idea...

U-streamed Classrooms!

Now I'm bit of a thinker and I really could only come up with good reasons to have it. Think of all the times you told your parents "thats just cuz my teacher don't like me" or "we don't be doing nothing in school". Take a look from an employers view; evaluations of your staff would be a lot easier. You could cut back on the teachers slacking or doing too much in a classroom because parents would have access to their child's educational process.  I know there are a lot of distractions that can keep a classroom from running smoothly but if there are more eyes it will benefit everyone in the long run.

I would love to watch Ayden take what she learned at home and apply It at school. If its wrong it will visible and corrected. If she was having issues with learning certain things could be eliminated. If she was doing wrong I could come up to the school and straighten things out before  the rest of the class was distracted from learning.

Now we all know when there is a camera around we tend to cut back on the foolishness and monitor ourselves accordingly. Thats the general idea of streaming the classes. Teachers would work harder, students wouldn't play as much if they knew mommy or daddy were at work watching. I believe parents would be more comfortable with sending there kids off if they could check in on them with out using leave or disrupting classes.

I think concerned parents, concerned employers, good educators, people bothered with bullys should push this idea. Take this idea to your school board meetings.

IF YOU FEEL DIFFERENTLY PLEASE SPEAK.YOUR MIND.
