Acadation
Academic Navigation. It means to play along with academics even when you know they're wrong. Said academics may dumb down questions and mark you wrong if you answer with an advanced, and correct, statement. So, to get the right answer, you have to answer with a wrong statement.
Pal 1: "One of the test's multiple choice questions asked me about photosynthesis. It asked me which processes didn't release carbon dioxide. The answers were burning fossil fuels, cellular respiration, volcanism, and photosynthesis. I thought all of them did because a study said that photosynthesis released trace amounts of carbon dioxide. So, I answered volcanism because it releases carbon dioxide, but also other gasses. I was marked wrong and the teacher said photosynthesis didn't release carbon dioxide."
Pal 2: "You need to use your common sense to safely complete acadation.
Pal 1: "What's that?"
Pal 2: "Even though you know the right answer, just play along and give them the answer they want so you get a good grade. Always remember the truly correct answer though. If you become what they want you to be, you'll be a dumbed down individual. Stay yourself, be safe, and only play along, not become what they think you should be."
