( Mechanisms to Advance New Understanding for Renewal in Education ) or M.A.N.U.R.E.
DIRECTIONS: Roll an ordinary pair of dice. Add up the two dice. Use the resulting number to choose a word from Group A. Repeat the process to choose a word from Group B and Group C. For instance, rolling "2-8-12" would result in "Integrated Modular Reform." (Hmmmm, sound like a workshop you've recently attended?)
You should then: (1) promote this concept far and wide as the "wave of the future," (2) become an educational consultant, (3) hold in-service workshops, (4) write books and other training materials, (5) get rich, and (6) retire.
