What is Pedagogy
Pedagogy is most commonly understood as the approach to teaching. It is the theory and practice of learning and how this process influences and is influenced by learners’ social, political, and psychological development. Pedagogy, taken as an academic discipline, is the study of how knowledge and skills are imparted in an educational context, and it considers the interactions that take place during learning. The theory and practice of pedagogy vary greatly as they reflect different social, political, and cultural contexts.[1]
Pedagogy is often described as the act of teaching.[2] The pedagogy adopted by teachers shapes their actions, judgments, and other teaching strategies by considering theories of learning, understanding of students and their needs, and the backgrounds and interests of individual students.[3][4] Its aims may range from furthering liberal education (the general development of human potential) to the narrower specifics of vocational education (the imparting and acquiring specific skills). Conventional western pedagogies view the teacher as a knowledge holder and the student as the recipient of knowledge (described by Paulo Freire as “banking methods”[5]). Still, theories of pedagogy increasingly identify the student as an agent and the teacher as a facilitator.”
