From http//www.stcsoc.org/quill/2003-11/word_origins.html. Pedagogy Noun. Meaning the art or the profession of teaching, the noun pedagogy is derived

Educational Technology at CSU Home Add an New Entry Site Search Wiki Pedigogy as a Derogative Term Posted by Brian on Monday April 10, @03:51PM from the But What Do I Know dept. The following is just one of many definitions of the term pedigogy. "The literal definition tends to be - the "science" of teaching children but it is a term which has being commonly accepted to mean the study of teaching and learning in all contexts. Adult educators have been uncomfortable with this term for a number of years as they feel it is value loaded and presenting an ideology of teaching and learning which is related to children, i.e. a more directed approach, teacher controlled, content orientated etc. So there is another definition Andragogy ¢Â€Â” the "science" of teaching adults ¢Â€Â” theories of teaching and learning related to adults. "
Source: The Learning and Teaching Web The words that seem to be cause concern is that pedagogy is "teacher" centered and directed rather than "learner" centered.

It is estimated that every year 800 neologisms are added to the English language, and include acronyms (NIMBY, Not In My Backyard), blended words (motel), and those taken from foreign languages (savoir-faire). Laid out in an a-to-z format with detailed cross-references and written to appeal equally to students, etymologists, and nonnative speakers, this historical guide is an invaluable resource for this truly global lingua franca. date added edit book find at: Amazon Half.com Abebooks more... ...

    Language Learning/Romance Languages
    Pages: Next page Guest Sun May 27, 2007 9:02 pm GMT Are the Romance Languages closer to one another than most of the world's other major languages? For instance, is it easier for a person who's mother tongue is one Romance language to learn another? Let's say someone who natively speaks Italian to learn Spanish/French versus someone who's native tongue is English to learn German/Dutch, or Chinese to learn Japanese, etc.
    Also, which two languages from different language groups are the closest? Could it be English and French? Guest Sun May 27, 2007 9:31 pm GMT I think it's obvious that it's easier to learn a language of the same family furrykef Sun May 27, 2007 10:10 pm GMT I would say yes, Romance languages are more closely related. They're certainly more related to each other than English is to German. Chinese and Japanese aren't actually related languages, though Japanese did borrow many words from Chinese, and Japanese writing is derived from Chinese writing. But a Japanese learning Chinese will indeed have a tougher time than a Spaniard learning Italian.
    On the other hand, I hear that the Scandinavian languages are even more closely related than the Romance languages are, and that Norwegians, Danes, and Swedes can all understand each other, although not 100%. (However, Finnish is a completely unrelated language.) Such mutual intelligibility is rare among the major Romance languages.
