AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Pedagogy is an English word meaning the science of teaching. It comes from the old Greek words 'paidos' boy and 'agogos' a guide. In ancient Greece, only boys went to school. Now pedagogy is understood as the knowledge or the science we have collected on teaching in general - boys, girls, and adults. For some people, the idea of pedagogy depends on having teachers who know, students who don't know, ideas which can be passed on from one to another, ways of constructing those ideas and ways of passing them on. In Australian culture today, people must learn pedagogy at teacher education institutions before they can be qualified to become teachers. ...' (Abstract)
