"A didactic method (Greek: \u03B4\u03B9\u03B4\u03AC\u03C3\u03BA\u03B5\u03B9\u03BD did\u00E1skein, \"to teach\") is a teaching method that follows a consistent scientific approach or educational style to engage the student\u2019s mind.The didactic method of instruction is often contrasted with dialectics and the Socratic method; the term can also be used to refer to a specific didactic method, as for instance constructivist didactics.Didactics is a theory of teaching, and in a wider sense, a theory and practical application of teaching and learning.In demarcation from \"Mathetics\" (the science of learning), didactics refers only to the science of teaching.This theory might be contrasted with open learning, also known as experiential learning, in which people can learn by themselves, in an unstructured manner, on topics of interest.The theory of Didactic Learning methods focuses on the baseline knowledge students possess and seeks to improve upon and convey this information.
