And all electronic devices are banned from the school. " 'The teacher will be the master of his class — a closed class and confidential,' Mansouri said, adding that even with the ban on everything from cellphones to iPods, teachers will likely still fear that they are being filmed." As well they should. I don't know about the specifics of this incident (the students might deserve punishment) but banning filming isn't the way to solve it.
