How many teachers does it take to change a light bulb?

How many teachers does it take to change a light bulb?

One. A good teacher changes everything, with the support of the parents.


As a public service TV spot or published image, I imagine a close in shot of a teacher screwing in a bulb on a simple overhead fixture with a reflecting shade. The lighting should be low at the opening. The shot opens up to 18 students in Second Grade, sitting on a rug on a floor with books open. The students are in various postures, sitting close together, in no particular order surrounding the teacher. The light encompasses all of them. The shot opens up wider and we see the floor is held up by thirty some parents underneath with outstretched hands. The wardrobe varies from suits and dresses to work jump suits.

Other images (if they haven't been done already) include: a teacher pulling a chain switch to turn on a dark light bulb over a child's head; teachers in classrooms around the world turning on lights; a teacher with a single student reviewing a book in front of them while a light bulb over the student's head glows brighter throughout.

And let's not forget seeing a teacher remove an incandescent bulb from a student's ear to replace it with a CFL in the other ear.
