Why this word is great
MISEDUCATION — [Noun] The act or process of imparting incorrect, misleading, or harmful knowledge or training. From the prefix mis- ("badly, wrongly") + education (from Latin educatio, "a rearing, training"). Unlike "ignorance," which is an empty page, or "indoctrination," which fills the page with a single, rigid script, miseducation is the page confidently inscribed with elegant falsehoods, its errors given the weight and polish of truth. It is the geography student who can flawlessly draw a map of a world that no longer exists, the historical narrative polished to omit its crimes, and the lifelong navigation of the world using a compass permanently skewed in childhood—a confident stride in precisely the wrong direction, which is always a farther and more tragic journey than having never moved at all.
