There is no profession like teaching and no workplace like a high school; filled with the angst, passion and often loopy antics of adolescents.
In over three hundred short entries of one to four paragraphs, the fluffy
jargon of edubabble, the quirks and foibles of teachers, and the frequently
zany behaviour of teenagers are lampooned with wit and sardonic humor.
A great gift for any high school educator!
This is a follow-up to 2018's "Edubabble: A Glossary of Teacher-Talk."
Excerpt
Attention Economy - The economists have finally discovered what teachers have known for a long time: that attention is difficult to obtain and even harder to keep. Teachers have little chance in any competition for attention since selling knowledge and skills is not nearly as sexy or exciting as peddling a new video game or tech gadget. Given the obstacles faced, teachers are remarkably skilled in grabbing what little student attention is available.
