A wry and satirical glossary of educator communication that involves the use of ridiculously fluffy words and silly sloganeering.
"Nobody would believe this stuff." This common staffroom refrain was
usually in response to the verbiage or antics of children or teens and the non-
sensical decisions of those in the education bureacracy.
As a former teacher, counselor, and principal at all three levels of schools,
(elementary, middle, and high schools), author Clyde Woolman decided to
take notes on the bottomless pit of non-sensical jargon . With over 300
entries of one to four paragraphs each, "Edubabble: A Glossary of Teaching"
is the result
As a gift book or a quick read for those teachers and principals with a
sharp sense of humor, "Edubabble" will leave educators chuckling as their
workplace called school is satirized and lampooned.
