Word-Cloud Glossary:


1. Didactics:  Didactics is a theory of teaching, and in a wider sense, a theory and practical application of teaching and learning. It is a teaching method that follows a consistent scientific approach or educational style to engage the student. 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. The theory of Didactic Learning methods focuses on the baseline knowledge students possess and seeks to improve upon and convey this information. It also refers to the foundation or starting point in a lesson plan, where the overall goal is knowledge. A teacher or educator functions in this role as an authoritative figure, but also as both a guide and a resource for students.

2. Sequence: A sequence is a set of related events, movements, or items that follow each other in a particular order. The word becomes from the late Middle English: from Latin sequentia, from Latin sequent- 'following', from the verb sequi 'follow'.
