Learning facilitators!

Stuff reports:

The row over academic freedom at Te Pūkenga – the country’s largest tertiary provider – has rumbled on after it emerged staff have been issued with a list of words they should and should not use. …

Under the guidelines, the words “student” and “trainee” are discouraged, the “preferred terms” being “ākonga” (student) or “learners”. …

Another guide section refers to teaching staff as “learning facilitators”.

They’re running at $100 million deficit yet they have time to produce idiocy such as this.
