Is a teacher ever right to yell at a student and break his cell for cheating on a test?

[ChicanaChick]

I saw a teacher doing that on an episode. Luckily it wasn't in real life but is that even right?

The teacher kept yelling at the student for cheating, disrupting the other students that were trying to take the test, broke his cell and threw him off the his chair. That to me sounds like abuse of power.

If I were the teacher, I wouldn't even announce the cheater in front of class. I would let him finish the exam but still give him the F he deserves. Then I would pull him aside and talk to him in private, asked him for an explanation. There is no need to yell and disrupt the whole class.

The episode to the teacher's reaction is on 5:23 min of the video:

He really sounds like a teacher I would really hate. He doesn't sound like he cares about his students learning either, sounds like like an autoritarian teacher. If I teacher had ever done that on me, my parents would go ballistic.

The kid cheated on his math test because he was having trouble with the subject and the teacher isn't a caring, helpful person. He's all into rules and being strict. The teacher even grabbed him by on the shoulder and threw him from his desk.

Yell yes, but break student property no. Confiscation is usually sufficient, and if they won’t give it to the teacher they can give it to security one way or another.

I don't agree with the way that teacher threw the student out of his desk either.
The thing is you're still going to fail him, why disrupt the other students that are trying to take the test? If a teacher kept yelling, I would have a hard time taking my exam. How about just taking away his exam and fail him? Why the additional yelling for attention?

I would be a creative teacher to be honest. I would care about my students learning and help out in all possible ways if a student is having trouble with a subject, even make the class interesting, make the sudents want to learn... not be one of those dictating teachers that's all into just rules and yelling.

There are ways of yelling at someone that don’t require theatrics or property destruction.

That video looks like something from a teacher training program about what not to do. A teacher who dumped a kid out of a desk would probably be in jail.

Obviously not all teachers are going to be good, some are even going to be out right bad, but I don’t see this example remaining a teacher very long if they have that little self control of discipline.

Yelling is usually allowed unless it's offensive language. But breaking personal belongings or physically abusing / harassing is unacceptable. The teacher should be reported.
