Popcast Phonetic:<\/strong> \u201cpeh-DUH-go-jee\u201d<\/em> \u2014 say it like you\u2019re explaining why pizza tastes better when someone else buys it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Verb<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

the art or science of teaching \u2014 not just what\u2019s taught, but how<\/em> it\u2019s delivered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n
EXPLANATION<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Pedagogy<\/em> is all about the methods teachers use to help people learn \u2014 but you can also apply it anywhere you\u2019re trying to teach someone something<\/em>. Like when you try to explain to your buddy why extra cheese isn\u2019t just an option, it\u2019s a life philosophy. Good pedagogy makes lessons stick; bad pedagogy leaves everyone confused like they just watched a movie with the subtitles turned off and nobody told them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n
ORIGIN<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

From Greek paidag\u014dgia<\/em>, meaning \u201cteaching\u201d or \u201ceducation,\u201d originally referring to a slave who guided children to school \u2014 imagine being tasked with explaining multiplication while everyone else is staring at a fresh pizza box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n
EXAMPLE<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Her pedagogy<\/em> for teaching Latin involved memes, pizza parties, and a powerpoint that looked suspiciously like a Lord of the Rings<\/em> plot summary \u2014 and somehow it worked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n
HOW TO USE<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Use pedagogy<\/em> when describing a method of teaching or explaining something well<\/em> \u2014 like the way your dad\u2019s \u201cpizza theory\u201d pedagogy always includes extra toppings, silly analogies, and five questions you didn\u2019t ask.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
