content-free
zero-content
1. (By analogy with "context-free") Used of a message
that adds nothing to the recipient's knowledge. Though this
adjective is sometimes applied to flamage, it more usually
connotes derision for communication styles that exalt form over
substance or are centred on concerns irrelevant to the subject
ostensibly at hand. Perhaps most used with reference to speeches
by company presidents and other professional manipulators.
See also four-colour glossies.
2. Within British schools the term refers to
general-purpose software such as a word processor, a
spreadsheet or a program that tests spelling of words supplied
by the teacher. This is in contrast to software designed to teach
a particular topic, e.g. a plant growth simulation, an interactive
periodic table or a program that tests spelling of a predetermined
list of words. Content-free software can be more cost-effective
as it can be reused for many lessons throughout the syllabus.
