    Frequently Asked Questions about Pedagogy

    Pedagogy is the study of teaching, specifically the methods and practices teachers use to deliver content to learners. The term refers to teaching styles and the theories that inform them, such as behaviorism, cognitive constructivism, and social constructivism.

    Studying pedagogy can be useful in your training if you want to teach other people. Examining your beliefs on teaching and learning and adjusting your practice as needed can improve the quality of your work. You may notice an increase in student learning as you become more aware of the learning preferences of students in the classroom. Learning about different approaches to education can increase your skills toolkit and give you more options for sharing information in a classroom or coaching environment.‎

    Careers that use pedagogy tend to be in the field of education. This includes teachers in K-12 public and private schools as well as post-secondary and community educators who work in trade schools, universities, and nonprofit organizations.
