No sooner asked than granted.
Andrew Rotherman over on Eduwonk.com has been running a contest on renaming NCLB.
There are some straight answers, but plenty that show a bit more...dark humor in renaming.
A few of my favorites:
- Double Back Around to Pick Up the Children We Left Behind Act
- the Teach to the Test Act
- the Could We Start Again Please Act
- The Act of Contrition
- Achieving America’s Reading, wRiting and aRithmatic Goals (AARRRG!)
- "I think, if we can get his permission, we should rename it the Garrison Keillor Act. After all, NCLB is no more of a fictional construct than Lake Woebegon where “all the children are above average!” "
