Seasonal public-works hires hear a flood of city acronyms with no explanation. How should the instructor handle jargon?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
A wall of letters is a locked door for seasonal hires. Gloss the acronym the first time, then use it. Jargon should let people in, not prove they were not here last year.
Full Explanation
Instructors use technical terms, acronyms, and organizational jargon at a level that clarifies for the audience. Seasonal public-works hires lack insider fluency; unexplained acronyms exclude them. Banning needed terms is the opposite error. Introduce and gloss jargon, then use it so learners can function in the city's language.
