At Utrecht fieldcamp we always have discussions about this; I'm in favor of teaching them dip and dip direction to avoid any confusion (or to add to the confusion.... ;-))

check out this new paper from Laura Portos-Amill, from when she was an MSc student working with me and Huib de Swart at UU.

agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

She put really nice new inlet physics in the barrier island model BRIE, to study how inlets expand from SLR.
