“Hey Teach! A lecture Musical.” Dir. Sheila Dvorak. Youtube. May 24, 2006. March 31, 2006.

This Youtube video shows a prank that a group of college students does to one class. In the middle of a lecture, a group of 3 students interrupt the professor in order to do a life musical performance in which they question the values of teaching and education. The prank catches by surprise the professor and the rest of the students in the classroom, whose only reaction is to laugh at what is happening. The main theme that is discussed in this video is education and the effects that it has in life. Other themes that are included in this short segment are: student-professor relations, teaching as a profession, and higher education. Although the video comes out as the evidence of a prank and its intended audience is the professor and the students in that specific lecture hall, it can appeal to everyone who has achieve some type of superior education.
