Pedagogical Waco Edit Meaning

1.

Reaction by a teacher when criticised in students' course evaluations to adopt an apocalyptic siege mentality instead of simply knuckling down and improving their class.

-See what the students said about Mrs Y's course at the end of the semester? "incompetent ...inadequate... substandard..." Hopefully with a kick up the pants like that she'll have to pull the finger out next year.

-You're kidding! I just saw her in the principal's office screaming that she was being victimised! A real pedagogical waco!
