Originally used by Alexander Kapp (a German educator) in 1833, andragogy was dev | Pedagogy (pronounced /ˈpedəɡɒdʒi, ˈpedəɡɑːdʒi, or ˈpedəɡoʊdʒi/ ) is the study of being a teacher. The term generally refers to strategies of instruction, or a style of instruction. |
Pedagogy refers to theories and approaches to teaching and learning.
Since the term derives from the Greek word for 'child', some have suggested its principles do not apply automatically to adult teaching and learning, for which the term andragogy has been used. Knowles used the term andragogy to describe a set of principles of teaching and learning specifically relating to adults.
