Pedagogy is the field of teaching and theories relating to teaching in general, and didactics is a theory within that field. comminicative based theory is another theory thatis pedagogical because it concerns teaching but entails a specific way of teaching.

Pedagogy is to diactics what color is to red.

Pedagogy is the field of science that focuses on childcare, education and teaching. Didactics is the study of learning and teaching. It’s a subcategory under pedagogy.

So, let’s say a high school teacher needs help to develop his/her classroom and teaching style. Is that a didactic issue or a pedagogic? Or both?
