We do not, therefore, consider it any especial merit of a new dictionary, that it contains a large number of words which have not been in its predecessors. Derivation is the process of attaching prefixes and suffixes to the base forms of words to create new words. Back-formation is the opposite process of removing affixes from longer words to create shorter new words. This article defines and provides examples of the related word formation processes of derivation and back-formation. Also available in this article are printable lists of the most. So, if you’re into this beautiful world of education or if you own an educational website or blog that deals with educational articles, researches, white papers etc., to reach out to your target audience, probably you would want to know which keywords containing the term ‘Education’ do most users search for on Google.

What I really liked about myvocabulary.com is that it is both teacher and student friendly. It offers students hints to not leave them frustrated and the variety is sure to not leave them bored. Many tips and ideas for teachers are offered as well. My favorite part of the site is that it also offers themed units, pertaining to themes such as various holidays, sports and my favorite, vocabulary words dealing with character education. Another great aspect of this site is that it has a section for vocabulary from 130 popular texts that many students read.

I will definitely spread the word of your fabulous site, which has saved me lots of time. Your word lists will allow my special education students to express themselves by simply recognizing word, as opposed to have to retrieve words, their weakness. I will use the word lists in reading and writing activities.

I have just started to teach ESL to students of Agronomy and Environment at the Agriculture University of Tirana, Albania. Thank you for all the information you provided. I am working to develop some vocabulary exercises related to the key words drawn from the text. The text is usually about earth and environment science. I find your website and all the information very useful.

[Listed in a very rough chronological order from older words and phrases to newer ones]
1. 21st-century
We get it: It’s about change. But we still have 87 years to go before the next century. We don’t think anyone is going to forget what century we’re currently in.
2. “Sputnik moment”
Almost a decade ago, the talk of education town was the Program for International Student Assessment’s (PISA) report on how the U.S. was underperforming compared to other developed countries. “This is our very own ‘Sputnik Moment’” said everyone after hearing about PISA’s revelations. We don’t know about you, but between the nation’s emphasis on STEM and LEGO’s amazing robotics kits for classrooms, we’re Sputnik’ing the heck out of education…and we love it!
3. Web 2.0
Used to describe web sites that use technology beyond the static pages of earlier websites, years ago Web 2.0 was used to describe resources and tools schools could use on computers. Just like “tubular,” Web 2.0 is now a term of the past.
4. College- and career-ready
According to education experts, there is a large disconnect between what students learn in school and what they’re required to do in the workplace—highlights include critical thinking skills and communication skills. Now, you can’t even mention the word ‘education’ without ‘college- and career-ready’ popping up in the next two minutes of conversation.
5. Right-brain thinking
A few years back, Daniel Pink’s book, A Whole New Mind, was making the education conference rounds and educators couldn’t stop discussing “right-brain” thinking, which included critical thinking and ‘outside-the-box’ imagination. As editors, we tended to agree!
6. Future-proofing
Y Education Words Worksheet
Just like words, such as “synergy” or “benchmarking,” this buzz term was conceptually pleasing, but annoyed everyone who had to hear it. Future-proofing was especially used in conjunction with 3-D projectors and any other education investment that had a large up-front cost, but promised an equally large, if not larger, return on investment (ROI).
7. Neuroscience
While not a buzz word specific to education, the inclusion of neuroscience into classroom practice was a huge trend just a couple of years ago. While many forward-thinking educators still consider neuroscience, the “new car smell” has dissipated.
8. Digital Natives
Y Education Words Definition
If one more person tells us how amazing it is that their two year old can build his/her own iPad we may just isolate ourselves and become island natives. Most students are fearless when it comes to technology, and that’s great. But let’s move on, shall we?
9. Real-world/project-based/inquiry-based
As part of closing the gap between school knowledge and workplace knowledge, experts recommend incorporating curriculum that asks students to work on a project that simulates a real-world problem. For example, “Meris needs to purchase and consume her Philly cheesesteak before she has a 1:00 interview, which will occur in less than five minutes. What kind of technology-based device can we build to ensure that Meris eats her sandwich in time?”
Y Education Words Examples
10. Disruptive technology
Based on the groundbreaking theory by Clayton Christensen, called Disruptive Innovation, disruptive technology, in relation to education, means any technology currently on the market that can revolutionize the way students learn. A good example of this technology is the iPad, or any other easily accessible mobile tablet.
