Apparenty a tutor in Australia is posting her student's work online in a forum. I don't completely know the intentions of posting the work but it has turned into having a malicious intent. To top it all off, the tutor appears to be using the student's real name and real personal information (such as the class name, the financial situation of the family, etc). The tutor also told the student that they should record the student reading her work so she can play it back and listen to it. The tutor then went ahead and posted the student's reading on the internet also. I admitt that the writing from this student is difficult to understand and in many situations I would probably also be laughing at this person but something just doesn't seem right this time. First, we do not know what the tutor is leaving out about Hannah and her life. Then, putting the student's work online is bad and I don't agree with doing that without the student knowing, but then to use her name, her personal life, and her voice even has to be crossing the line. I can't help but feel sorry for Hannah having her stuff be put online and so many people looking at it and laughing at her. Plus, Hannah had to make it this far in school somehow and her teachers passing her years ago when they shouldn't have is not her fault. The schools let Hannah become what she is and that isn't her fault. I don't see this as her being stupid but instead her school system failing at their job. This entire situation just doesn't seem right. The links to some of the forums are below. What do you think? Should this stuff be online?
