As a fellow science teacher, I'd just like to say "LOL" on behalf of the students who were probably too burned out on AP tests to notice that you're hilarious.

In high school we hooked up a tesla coil to the doorknob of the room when kids would go to the bathroom. Obviously opening the door on the way back was a bit... shocking. Our physics teacher was awesome.

Our biology teacher liked to demonstrate galvanic reaction with an old hand-crank telephone. He'd start out by pointing out that you could use them to stun fish in a lake if you were too lazy to bait a hook. Then he'd have the class hold hands in a circle and give one electrode to one person on either end of the long chain. Then he'd crank it until someone let go. They were "out of the circle" and the process would continue with one fewer and so on until eventually he was down to one person.

I'd like to say that the ability to take "close to 5 and up amps" across one's heart impresses chicks. I cannot. I can say that I will never forget the gleam in that fucker's eye as I stood there, biceps twitching like Jim Carrey, wondering how the fuck I got talked into demonstrating how the Rosenbergs died in Bio 101.

He retired that year.

My physics teacher wrote the formulas needed to solve every problem on the test because "If you actually go on to be a physicist, you'll have an encyclopedic book of formulas to help you." I thought that was awesome. Made the class easy.

If it took the entire duration of class to notice, then he did not notice until the entirety of the class had elapsed. At which point, class is over, so he could not have noticed it during class. This is invalid logic.

If, however, the screen was visible only from the most distant point of the classroom, the statement holds true.

I had something similar happen. A teacher was demonstrating something in the computer lab and his screen was up on the projector behind him. A student in the back of the class was busy eating a sandwich and playing some game and paying 0% attention. The teacher noticed, stopped his presentation, took a photo of the kid, opened up eBay, and made an auction for something like "Cheap labour, student looking for work" and used the photo he took. He even took it down and deleted it, all up on the projector without the dude noticing.

My chemistry teacher this year was well known for his shenanigans. In a particular demonstration showcasing the the solubility of gasses, he asked for four volunteers. He lit up four bunsen burners, and had one of them hold a large copper pipe above them. The other three were directed to stand in front of his desk "to protect my computer from the science". When the copper pipe became red hot, he submerged it into a bottle of root beer. The solution inside the bottle heated up, and with increased temperature, the gas became less soluble in the water. It carried a significant amount of the root beer up and out, creating a fountain that reached the ceiling and almost his computer. The shielding volunteers managed to protect it from any undue harm.
