Teacher’s Office Next to Classrooms to Monitor Students in China

From Sina Weibo:

@央视新闻: “The teacher’s office and the classrooms have combined!” Recently at Guangtai Middle School in Handan City, Hebei the classrooms are undergoing a major transformation. What were once “far away”, teacher’s offices have moved right “next door” to the classrooms. The teacher can see all that is happening in the class by just looking outside the office window, getting to know the details of the student’s studying habits and the state of the class. Netizens: those students who were once standing guard in the back can now be relieved of their duties, what do you think?

Comments on Sina Weibo:

無无無无可救药chaiy：

I feel this will add a lot of pressure on the students, going to class will be more painful.

The principle’s office can be linked to the teachers’ office.

囚徒-capf：

Chinese children are ruined like this.

头痛心不痛：

Scary leaders, pitiful teachers and students, tragic Chinese education system.

吾爱翻译：

Education with Chinese characteristics.

时光缭绕：

What is the difference between this and going to prison?

呆萌系小小小小怪兽：

This is practically hell on earth, good thing I already graduated.

哈尔滨12人：

The feeling as if they will be shot from behind anytime.

巴斯光年义和：

Is this a school or a prison? China, haha.

丧心病狂周老汉：

During the rapid development of the internet we censored the internet. When the children needed freedom the most, we limited their freedom, I feel ashamed for the term “we”.

I suddenly thought of the Panopticon.

小生木骨：

I suggest placing the principal’s office behind the teacher’s office, the Minister of Education’s office behind the principal’s office…Xi Jinping’s office.

Riyoyir：

Chinese education is a bizarre chapter in the civilized history of mankind.

龟园长：

I am so lucky to have graduated.

If they changed the school uniforms into prison uniforms then it would be perfect, practically unimpeachable.

我掐了那就吼：

They should add a sign at the door: “do not throw food”.
