I need some input from a teachers point of view on the following item found on the internet. NO the video is no longer available












Teacher not hot for Web video

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (UPI) -- A North Carolina teacher has become the unwilling star of a steamy Internet video shot at a fifth-grade graduation ceremony.

The 3 1/2-minute amateur video features close-ups of teacher Keri McIntyre's face and, ahem, backside set to the Van Halen classic "Hot for Teacher." "Good Morning America Weekend Edition" reported.

"When I saw it I was furious," McIntyre told the news program Sunday.

McIntyre found out about the video when a former student teacher called to say it was posted on YouTube. She then demanded the site pull the clip, but about 200,000 people had already viewed it, the network said.

After YouTube took the clip off its site, the video popped up on the social networking site MySpace.

The teacher is looking for the person responsible for the video, but all of the growing number of private citizens who are accidental Web stars have limited privacy rights when it comes to the Internet.

I believe Friendlyme is a teacher as well, from the comment she made in one of the other threads about asking her students.

Good call Mr. Lima. She is a teacher. My wife is a teacher, does that count?

I bet I'm in a WHOLE LOT OF DOO-DOO, aint I ?

Its just wierd news from the internet-and yet somewhat educational too-always be aware of your surroundings, no matter how harmless it is, you never know what who is doing-a lesson someone learned the hard way and we should put that on our "Note to self" thingy.

Dont beat me with a ruler Mary, please? My knuckles are whooped enough!!

The last time my brothers and sisters were all home at the same time, we had a big get together at my parents house. This was quite a few years ago. My Uncle asked one of his buddies to video tape for us, so that we were all free to enjoy seeing each other and catching up. Well, when we went to watch that video, most of it was of my sister's and my @ss. There was maybe, 20 minutes of a 2 hr video, that was actually of all of my family. The friggin guy was a creep, to say the least! Ever since then, you can bet I'm aware of my surroundings!

Yes I am a teacher, I teach Biology to freshmen college students.

I am not really sure how the video goes but following from what I have read, it is pretty obvious, now all I can say... is being a teacher, you just can fool around. Be discreet. You are always expected to be one.

One of my older sisters is a Doctor of English Literature and teaches at a local college here. She's often talked about her pre-classroom "checks" which include bending over in front of the mirror to see if she can see down her shirt, sitting when in a blouse to see if the material 'bunches' open around the buttons allowing "peek-a-boos" ... etc. She said that she is amazed at how many teachers do NOT do these sorts of things and learns by looking at them and how they dress.

But what chaps my a$$ about this article above is this whole YouTube crap! I hate that anyone's privacy can be stolen like this and parlayed into something that they cannot hold someone liable for. Quite frankly I do not like the cell phones with picture capabilities. Once you step out of your house you take the risk of having your image captured by some pervert who will use it to take 'up skirt' pictures, etc. You couldn't do that so easily with regular cameras. It's a sad state of affairs when common decency and gentlemanly ways are becoming extinct! Just today on the way into work I heard about Caroll High School's Football Team who posied for thier team picture doing the "shocker" hand gesture. Okay I'll plead ignorance, so when I got here I popped that into google and learned about the one in the pink and one in the stink sign. Great .... what a bunch of fine young men! Doesn't anyone raise their sons to be gentleman anymore? There are jokes, then there are times you refrain and hold yourself more accountable for being respectable, and that includes this story up above as well. Respect people and their privacy.

Just my old fashioned !
