词组 educationist
释义 educationist
      In British English, educationist is an ordinary word synonymous with educator:
      The author is a well-known educationist who for twenty years has taught at St. Luke's College — Times Literary Supp., 2 Apr. 1970
      But in American English, educationist rarely describes an actual, specific person. It most often serves instead as a term of disparagement for a stereotypically muddle-headed educational theorist, whose dubious ideas have contributed greatly—in the writer's view—to the downfall of American education:
      ... the educationist is someone who can take an easy subject and make it difficult —Dr. Laurence T. Peter, The Peter Prescription, 1972
      ... English grammar has been denigrated by large numbers of influential educationists —Thomas H. Middleton, Saturday Rev., 1 Mar. 1980
      Its disparaging connotations are also apparent in adjective use:
      Intellectually The Greening of America resembles nothing so much as your typical educationist tractate: a stock of truism ... spiced with trivia —Samuel McCracken, Change, January-February 1971
