WHITEBOARD (as if they're the end-all, be-all)
TECHNOLOGY(see above)
emergent literacy (it's called Learning to READ)
MULIPLE INTELLIGENCES(poor Howard Gardner being taken completely out of context...)
DIVERSITY(it really means nothing anymore)
TEACH TO THE TEST (as if the info on the test isn't worth knowing?)
Anything else that is edubabble designed to be a catchy phrase which alienates yet impresses....Hmph.
