Linchpin - Word of the Week

Our word of the week is linchpin. Linchpin is a noun that means one that serves to hold together parts or elements that exist as a unit. Many times new material that your instructor presents can appear as scattered information. So you will need a linchpin to grasp such critical and yet complex information. Many times, your linchpin is a person who will provide you with simple examples that you can associate with this scattered information. So sometimes you may need to request that experienced person, and he or she will connect his or her past experiences as a linchpin to make this new information more comprehensible information.
