Believe it or not I am totally bilingual in EduBollocks and can converse with the best of them. Here's just a few of the ones I remember starting with A,B or C!
The trouble is I can no longer remember what most of them are meant to mean, but most educationalists I talk to don't either, and since neither wishes to show our ignorance, we tend to nod sagely and agree with whatever the latest fashionable orthodoxy is.
'anticipation guide',
'ADHD',
'bodily-kinesthetic intelligence',
'benchmarks',
'constructivism',
'criterion check',
'creative thinking'.
One of my favourite bits of new-speak is how anything to do with transport is now automatically labelled 'logistics'. (And before anyone starts I am well aware of the use of logistics within distribution networks).
I even followed one lorry the other day which told me that the firm was 'Passionate About Logistics' which I though was rather laying it on a bit!
