'Take notes the old fashioned way': Teacher refuses to let student bring loud laptop to class, so he brings a typewriter instead
Teachers should use careful wording when instructing their students. This is especially true when it comes to enforcing rules and regulations because simply put, kids don't like restrictions and sometimes, they're right. Sometimes, they can be ridiculous. No texting during class? Fine. Limited bathroom breaks? Come on! You're just asking for people to dislike you.
This student was told that their laptop was too noisy and that he would have to take notes the "old fashioned way." Obviously, in his teacher's mind, she meant with pen and paper, but the student had a sudden epiphany. He decided to comply with his teacher's request, albeit maliciously. The next day, he brought in an electric typewriter for his note-talking. Of course, this was wildly disruptive and only further proved that his teacher's request the other day was a bit much. Sometimes, the only way to properly defend yourself against an authority figure is to show just how off-base they are rather than tell them. The result is far more effective and definitely makes for a great story.
